Guest guest Posted November 16, 2002 Report Share Posted November 16, 2002 Hi Caroline, Wish you a wonderful and successful weekend. Reading your post I have realized although I am watching probably my portion size I do recall this week I bought some of that spinach dip. Not sure if anyone knows what that is but I love it. I think going to the gym every other day if I can is helping me the most right now. Oh, and the wine sometimes in the evening for me not sure what that is doing. Oh well, everyday is a new day. Lord, may I ask for strength.

Guest guest Posted November 16, 2002 Report Share Posted November 16, 2002 Dianne, Caroline, The alcohol really can do a number. Not only is it empty calories but it slows your metabolism down. When I started getting off track was when I was missing days on the tread and started having a drink now and then. I had gone over a year with out any. I do much better when I avoid it all together. I have a low thyroid so I need all the metabolism I can get! Just my two cents. hope you all have a good weekend. Go ahead and enjoy somethings just take small bites and chew it thoroughly.

Guest guest Posted November 17, 2002 Report Share Posted November 17, 2002 way to go you did great, parties are very tempting, i am proud of you. and indulging once in a while is okay as long as you know the limitations of your indulgents. > Well....weekend off to so-so start....did ok at office party > yesterday afternoon....very conscious of what i ate...stayed away > from creamy dips...stuck with veggies, shrimp (plain), small piece > of cheese, small piece of french bread...and did indulge in one choc > covered strawberry....a guilty pleasure... > > continued to do ok at party in the evening....little nibbles....but > did have 3 beers.....but all in all i did ok... > > today i have a lot of housework to do so will stay busy.....plan to > cook dinner at home tonight and tomorrow...so that will help... > > teri - where are you? is everything going ok? just want to check > in.... > > sounds like everyone is doing great!!! which is wonderful!!! have > a greatweekend! i'll check in later today!!! > > Caroline Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
