Hi @elentogether! I won't call this a 'diet' because it is a lifestyle change. I haven't really eaten healthy pretty much my entire life. Lately, having not enough time to really cook plus a 'kitchen' challenge of not having a real stove, it's been too easy to grab prepackaged food and just microwave dinner! Not a good thing with all the additives they tend to put in all that stuff.

So, I'm trying to eat more whole foods and if it's prepackaged, a healthier version. I've really started paying attention to what the labels say and trying to 'clean up my food act' accordingly.

It is working; I've lost 18 pounds since July in just doing this. I am happier and feel much better than I have in a long time. I want to live to a ripe old age and the road I was on was not helping me to try to achieve this.

As for the Poinsettia, they wouldn't survive in the ground here anyway, so as a potted plant is the only way it might. Thus far, I've failed miserably , lol!

Thank you for responding and have a lovely day!🤗💜 !LADY
