I took a week or so off program over Christmas, but I decided that this past Monday was back on. Monday is my weigh in day, and points re-set, so it was a good time. Well, anybody remember the Airplane spoof movie, where Lloyd Bridges keeps saying "I picked the wrong week to give up smoking..." ? That's how I've felt all week! Champagne on New Year's Eve, with homemade truffles, both very excellent. A New Year's day party today - I ate lunch before I went to avoid the temptation of party nibbles. Turns out they served lunch! Oh, well, I wasn't hungry, and just avoided the food room altogether. However, I am journaling, and trying to make reasonable choices, like good portion sizes, and water to drink. I'm doing the best I can, with the kids driving me crazy (school goes back next week) and PMS setting in, and DH's ultra good chex mix freshly made... I saw pictures of myself from last summer, so I got a stark reminder of why I wanted to change my way of eating. I was surrounded by a bunch of thin people at the party today, and did not feel self-conscious. I am pleased with my progress so far, and I'm looking forward to seeing less of me. I just wanted to see it in print. (Cuz you know everything you read on the internet is completely true.) -- Wendy http://griffinsflight.com/Quilting/quilt1.htm de-fang email address to reply

Good for you for resisting temptation Wendy. You should be very proud of yourself! >I saw pictures of myself from last summer, so I got a stark reminder of why I wanted to change my >way of eating.

I >just wanted to see it in print. That's great Wendy. Re-motivation and pride in how far you've come. That's a winning combination >(Cuz you know everything you read on the internet is completely true.)
