My goodness, you certainly are all very persistent. Thanks for worrying about me. I'm FINALLY back into my normal routine, so HERE I AM! I missed you guys so much! I should be able to catch up with you all by the end of the week.
Let's see: my brother's wedding went very well. My mother was ABSOLUTELY GORGEOUS. My father (her ex) isn't very expressive, but his eyes showed how impressed he was with how she looked. She was on top of the world! The wedding itself was very simple and we were home by 11:00 pm or so.
The holidays were fairly quiet. The only exercise I got was from shoveling snow. I did, however, get tons of brain exercise with my daughter's Nintendo DS, Brain Age 2. I am a Sudoku maniac!
This morning I am back into the game. I did my new Firm Ultimate Fat Burning workout with 3-lb weights. I'm also back to eating the same old veggie soup & tuna for lunch. Yay.
I managed to put on only one pound since my last report December 19th. Not too shabby, considering I didn't eat very well at all. We saw National Treasure yesterday, and I ate popcorn and a bag of M&Ms. For dessert last night I had a piece of triple chocolate cake and 2 Whippets. I figure I may as well enjoy my last day of heavenly bliss....
Tonight my baby has a ringuette practice, so supper will be a rushed plate of spaghetti. I should probably steam some broccoli to go with it. We'll see.
Have a wonderful day, everyone! HAPPY NEW YEAR! I promise I'll catch up with you as soon as I can.

Welcome Back!
One pound is nothing! Good for you, girl! Glad to hear from you again!
I was wondering what you were up to and look, there's an Angel post in my Google reader. Sounds like you had good holidays and didn't suffer too much damage.
Me, I'm up and down. Still trying to get down to my pre-vacation weight - hopefully this week. I've got to get into the 180's before I head off on my next vacation on 1/30. Not that it matters - I'll probably gain 15 lbs on a 2 week cruise!!
Anyway, glad you're back and ready for an exciting 2008!!
You're back! We were all getting worried! And good for you for maintaining (one pound doesn't really count. I'm calling it a maintain!). Now that the holidays are over, all of us are getting back on track. Everyone is getting down to business! Haha.
Oh, and I bet the look on Dad's face was just priceless when he saw how hot your Mom looked! Following your blog, I almost feel like we've been following her progress too, so I am very happy for her! For both of you! Tell her good job and both of you keep up the hard work!

Glad you had a great break
Sounds like you had a lot of fun while you were gone from blog land! Glad to hear it! Welcome back to the daily grind!
Glad you are back. we all missed you! I have to ask, what is a whippet? I'm assuming it's a drink and I know what a 'greyhound' is but haven't heard of that. one. So glad you're back!
Good to see you back, sounds like you had a good Christmas and well done on only gaining 1lb!
Thankyou for your lovely and helpful comments about the bridesmaid's dress issue...they really helped, I felt very isolated about it!
Re the French...I think that is wonderful. I speak a couple of 'extra' languages, it is such a useful thing in this world - and must be especially where you are.
Good morning!
