Thursday, February 11th

Devon,

I have to tell you, that today at work, it was all about food, cake, cookies, buns, ice cream and of course the main dishes as well :-) - bet you can't tell which ones were my nemesis.  It was our annual Valentines Lunch. The funny thing is I forgot all about it until 1130 this morning (hmm shift in thinking - not focusing on food). Because of you being strong yesterday. I walked out of there having a total of 140 calories, ham, strawberry and sm piece of honey dew. I felt in control because you could do it, that meant so could I. Thank You!

I am home now waiting for my spaghetti-squash-lasagna to be ready.

Lorna

Aw, thanks! I made it through today, too! We are BOTH strong! 

Happy Thursday friends!  Scale has rewarded my continued vigilance with a firm 112 this morning. Nice to see it again, even if it is usually fleeting these days.  But I'm in good stead for what can only be a food and drink fest ahead of me for this particular holiday.  Decided I'm not going to stress about it because there's not much I can do to change it.  I'll be back home and on plan just 10 days later!  Just like Lorna :-)

I wouldn't stress it either. You are going into the Holiday with good numbers.....enjoy!

When do you depart? 

So happy for your 112!!!!! I get the importance - even if it is "just a number". 

Yup, I know you get that number thing :-). We leave tomorrow evening. It's a gruelling trip with a long wait in Toronto and a 3.5 hour time change by the time we land (noon on Saturday) so a nap will be required when we get in!

That trip sounds horrid! Where are you going? 

visiting family in St. John's, Newfoundland, which is as Far East in Canada as you can go!

Yikes! Rather isolated I assume. Best of luck. Only 10 days. Your family, right? Not DH's...

Yup my family and we're both looking forward to spending time with them
