I am looking at the upcoming weekend with dread. Two big challenges.
1.) dinner party I am hosting for 8 Fri night
2.) valentines dinner out with DH Sat. night I know one trick to avoid the calories such as diluting
wine with club soda. Yuck! why do that to a perfectly good wine!!! But it is planning it all out
that will make or break me. Desserts are very easy for me to pass on but I hate to offend the
person bringing the dessert. Well tough, she is skinny!!! Appetizers too are easy for me to skip.
PORTION CONTROL. That's it. I will limit how much I eat and load up on veggies. OK, I feel better.
Unfortunately, I have also missed a couple work outs so I will have to squeeze an at home video in
to compensate. I will definately need my activity points. Forgive the rambling, my coffee hasn't
kicked in yet! Bird need to lose 44# Happy Valentine's Day
 
Sounds like a busy weekend with the dinner parties. Just do the best you can and remember that it's
only two days. Load up on veggies and use those flex points if you need to. Good luck!

What a good plan! Why don't you try having 1/2 a glass of wine instead of diluting it. No use
ruining good wine!!!
