I had a great week over in Chaska, Minnesota, volunteering at the KPMG Women’s PGA Championship!

It’s funny how some weeks you go into weigh-in convinced the scale is going to be up, only to find out it isn’t. That was the case for me this week. When I stepped on the scale this morning, I weighed 270.1 pounds. That puts me right back where I was two weeks ago and

This morning’s weigh-in was a reminder that I need to stay focused on my diet. The scale read 270.5 pounds, a slight increase from last week.
