    Weekly Wrap Up ~ November 12, 2021

    Krista I ate nearly every day this week, but not much. I had things like chicken salad, cheese, and turkey. My reflux got bad this week. I tried Mylanta, lots of water, and milk. None of it took care of it so I ended up eating to stop the burn. I had the same problem […]
