Menus and Miles Monday Feb. 27th

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.

Hubby is spending the next 2 weeks out of town, working in DC both weeks, but visiting his folks in the middle over the weekend. I usually don't mind him being on travel, since I'm a bed hog! Yes, I'm shameless!! LOL But right now, the baby boy is going through a really strong attachment phase and Papa is his favorite person on Earth all of a sudden. I'm gonna struggle with this little turd. Hopefully Grammy will suffice until Papa comes back.

I had deli meat planned for lunch today, but on the way home from the airport I got a good whiff of fried chicken and caved. Bojangles chicken tenders for lunch. Those calories?!?! Good Lord. I'm hoping that calorie count includes the biscuit that came with the box, since I didn't eat it. Who knows.
