Getting Rid of Excuses!
Woohoo! I'm down 2 pounds. 
I did OK at the family dinner yesterday. I had small portions of ham and potato salad. I did eat 2 rolls and some cookies, but I passed on the 2 kinds of pie and ice cream.....so it wasn't that bad. I'd normally have eaten seconds on the dinner, had the cookies, had a piece of both pies, and would have put ice cream on the apple pie. I think that I did pretty well.
Getting rid of an excuse:
Today I'm heading to the gym close to my house and am going to get a one year membership. That way I'll have a close place to go so that the "I don't feel like driving 25 minutes there." excuse that I use now is shot down. I'll keep my current gym membership, but having the second gym membership will be good for those days when I don't feel like the hour round-trip drive. Sometime I just want to use the treadmill and don't want the hour, round-trip drive involved. But my current gym is 10 times nicer, has TVs on most machines, belly dance classes, and zumba classes. When I'm up for the drive it's great!
Ok, I'm off now.....new gym and pedicure. Woohoo!

Hahaha, yea Rollerderby is definitely different!
I haven't picked a name yet for the team, I want to make sure I get one I really like a lot.
About eating out, you're cutting down to once every two weeks, that's setting the bar very high. And yes, when it's me and a man it's always just laziness. His laziness rubs off on me, and we end up at some restaurant where I'm trying to find a cheap healthy meal when there were tons of healthy economical meals at home! But then, he didn't really help me clean up after the meal either. Sometimes with men it's easier to just say "forget dinner, do what you want and I'll do what I want- we'll meet for snuggling later"
LOL
I had 2 gym memberships for a little while to, for convenience. HEy, we gotta do what we gotta do! Oh, now that I read your post about the family dinner I realize how poorly I did at my family dinner. I had seconds on everything. =( oops, well it was Easter.

Awesome job
I admire you for keeping such great control on Easter. I was able to keep it managable, but ate food I didn't need and wasn't hungry for because it was there.
