So how'd you do?

       

Fourth of July is very food-heavy... so how did everyone do fighting off the demons? Good? Bad? Tell us stories!

Otherwise... how did your Independence Day go overall?
What did you do?

It was actually a pretty quiet day for me! lol My mom got out of the hospital the day before so I hung out with her all day. Brought her out to lunch - I had some artichoke dip with some pita bread. Yes, not the best thing in the world but it was deliciously garlicy. Yumm. Then we watched movies all day. The Women is hilarious, folks! You must see it. 

Have done very well in the eating department. i had to work all weekend. Found myself thinking way to much about what I could've, should've done, so much for independence!

I think I did pretty well.  I was excited to have been able to eat a hamburger patty!!  I watched everyone else eat the fatty potato chips and dip, mayo-covered pasta salad, and angelfood cake among other foods.  I felt sort of sad but then realized that they aren't good for my anyway!

I did just fine, thank you...  until that damn cob of corn I just couldn't resist last night.   (It was such a little one, too!)

Dayum..... did THAT hurt my plumbing!!   

Can't do the pretty pictures, Can give a list of all my damage: hold on to your seats! It is scary!!!!

I think the total  of walking/running/biking and other exercise should of been a great total I would guess about 6 miles biking,4 to 6 miles walking/running.

I am down 2 pounds from before we left town for the weekend! Were not even going to go to the how many calories/fats/proteins etc.. I consumed!
