I only have a moment so I wanted to stop in and tell everyone that I am doing fine and hanging in there. I lost 2 pounds last week but when I got on the scale this morning I was up 2 pounds. My actual weigh-in won't be until Thursday so I am hoping for the best and no additional gaining. I have stayed on my plan so nothing has changed with the exception that dear old TOM is about to come for a visit...oh joy. So far TOM can't make up his mind if he wants to come for a visit or go home until next month. I suppose I can chalk that up the peri-men. and all of it's wonders. LOL
Work has been keeping me really, really busy with little free time. Next week I will be working out of town for the entire week and again the following week and again the following week. In essence I will only be home this week in the month of April...oh sigh~
A true test of will as I will be dining out most of the time, but my hb and I dine out frequently so I pretty much know what I can have and what I usually opt to leave behind. But, the true test will come when I am out of town because with the travel comes stress, fatigue, crankiness and simply missing my hb and the home we love to relax in after a hard day of work. I just don't want to make food my "friend nor my enemy" during that time. But I'll be ready to face the challenge and like all success stories in life.....I will plan and plan to succeed.
Hope everyone is well, and I'll stop in again real soon.

LOVE YA!
HOLA! Glad to hear that you are losing weight and doing well! I am so proud of you! GOOD JOB!!!
Or should that be trials? Way to go on the planning ahead and knowing what to avoid. I think it's strange how we give food so much feeling... it's our friend or it's our enemy. I wish it could be like the floor, something you need but not something you obsess over. It'll come one day I am sure. Be safe!
I just wanted to say that you hang in there... like the others have said on this... you'll be home soon... right where you need to be! I'll miss you! :-) Love, Jen
Well, I think I have heard from just about everyone on my friend list but YOU! Well & a couple others... I am thinking about you. I hope all is well! Keep it up! You can do it! :-)) Love, Jen
