I don't know which I think is best, Indiana... the longer posts seem to get lost after awhile... and I like the idea of thinking y'all are looking at my list and will nudge me back in the right direction when I get off track... and that might not be happening when my whole week is on page one and we're already on page two or three by the weekend.
OTOH, by putting a week in one post, we can look at our overall nutrition (or lack thereof) in a little better perspective.

Maybe three or four days per post would work better?

But it's no big deal -- everyone can do whatever suits their purpose best -- I don't mind if we're not all doing exactly the same.

Several days at a time were working with just the three of us. But now that others are joining us I think one day per post is better. More than one day is difficult to follow.

I'm glad trish and helia have joined us. Maybe Harmony will come back and others will join us.
