He always sends me little reminders that He has not left me. It could be a song on the radio or one time it was a bird on my window checking in on me.

Hey Everyone, This is Mary Ward, National Director of First Place. Making myself accountable to you all. Because I had company for the last two days I got off on my meals, but I did manage to make Day 2's breakfast this morning. And I chose the strawberry poppyseed chicken salad from Panera for dinner the previous night. I didn't use any dressing and honestly it didn't need it with all the fruit, nuts and lettuce in the salad. How are you all doing? Remember it's not about perfection. Today I will follow the remainder of the meals for Day 3. What swaps have you made so far?
