choise wisely as possible.
fill up on water n salad.
keep filled up w water/salad.
Take single serveing pk of water flavoring, trail mix, n at least 5 banana's. Of course others at party will partake of fresh fruit n bottle water.
I always take green salad to host for host to have for her/his guest.
I like fruit, seedless grapes in my green leaf salads. The salad is sweet, n fills me up.
I never eat cake ice ing. nor outter edge of pie crust.
Take pre pre -paired bag of celery sticks n/r sliced I to sticks- carrots, with you.
Baby carrots are far sweeter than regular size carrots.
Portion control. Enjoy. add time to walk ( excercise ).

We all have an off day or weekend once in a while.
Just get back on track after all this is over and maybe try to limit the damage....

Thanks everyone. I did gain 2 pounds from last week but I think I did good over the weekend. At the bday party I did a sandwich instead of pizza and water instead of pop but I did eat a cupcake.
At the baptism party I ate rice with mushrooms, a few bites of pasta salad (she loads hers with veggies too), carrots, tomatoes & cucumbers, and a handful of chips with taco salad dip (also loaded with veggies). I did have a chocolate chip cookie while I was making them but a cookie right out of oven. mmm.
new week back on track now
