Well - I don't know about you all - but I'm to the point - I really hate Halloween !! Just kidding.

I love the costumes and watching the kids and ADULTS too during this time of year...


Today's festivities at my office made me think? What did you all do in your office(s) today?

How did you all handle it ??


I FELL..............BIGTIME..................but my tool kept me from eating the whollllllllle thing !! lol
PLEASE NO BASHING HERE.................I luv you AND I'M NOT PERFECT but I'm trying - some days - well - some weeks are just better than others.........

I tried 2 or 3 bites of chocolate covered bacon (we had a chocolate cooking/baking competition - thingy that was based on presentation, effort, taste, etc..) Yes we even had a Simon guy on hand too !! . My team did a cake, and I volunteered to do the presentation for it. I'm really trying hard to come out of my box and step out..........my self-esteem is just horrible......but it has gotten better with the weight loss..............so.........I did it.

I tried the pudding, cheesecake, cool whip - 2 or 3 bites and that was enough for me........

The funny thing is : when you walked into the breakroom - You couldn't SMELL the food we had in there because the CHOCOLATE STUFF took over the aroma of the room.......YECH I can't believe that I wasn't impressed..........I LOVE CHOCOLATE AND ALWAYS WILL - but since the episode on the Carnival Cruise Ship with chocolate.....um...........HELLO DALLAS !! My pouch gave me a few little gurgles and I decdied - ENOUGH...


NOW - Would have I been able to do that prior to WLS - HAILLLL NO !!
But I have a tool that reminds me - it's okay to screw up on holidays - try a little something here and there ........give it up and beginning THE NEXT MEAL.................you'll start over...........


LUV YOU ALL !!

MAKE IT A GREAT DAY !!

Phyllis,

I'm proud of you for volunteering to do the presentation. I know that was hard for you. We don't live in a bubble and there will be food and treats especially at work (at home is a different story) But you had a taste here and there and didn't over indulge. No bashing here......the key is not to continue to "indulge" the rest of the day and the day after that etc ;)

Your loved!

Lynnette
