Menus and Miles Friday Feb. 19th

WARNING TO SELF AND TO ANYONE WHO WILL LISTEN!!! AVOID 'BAD' CARBS AT ALL COSTS!!! THEY ARE ADDICTING!! THEY WILL SLOW DOWN YOUR WEIGHT LOSS DURING THE LOSING STAGE (and you won't even notice)!! THEY WILL MAKE THE SCALE GO UP AFTER THE HONEYMOON PERIOD IS OVER.

Success in Maintenance starts with GOOD CHOICES during the Honeymoon Period.

I feel I need to repeat this: I am a FIRM believer in Good Whey Protein Drinks!!!!! I have IC (Irritable Bladder Syndrome) and I can only have them while I'm not having a flare up. It is sooooo much harder to do Maintenance without them!

Afternoon LW's!!!  Today is my DH's birthday.  Planning on going out to eat somewhere but because it's a Friday night and restaurants are crazy in our little town on Friday's we might have to hold off until tomorrow.

When DH retires I hope he keeps in touch with some of the guys.  I know when he is off they call him constantly and I can tell he really likes them.

I'm glad you started adding your Protein drinks again.  It will help make up for your "baking" days.... 

Sounds Good! 

We have to adjust to the crowds around here all the time. It does get old but you start to look for little mom&pops that the crowds haven't discovered yet. Happy B-Day to your DH.

Most of our little places have all closed down since the "name brand" restaurants have moved in and taken over.  We have one about a mile from our home that has great breakfasts and the rest of the food is fried and terribly greasy.

Sounds Good!
