Well, I have had a pretty good day, feeling fairly upbeat. The kids were bickering like crazy this morning, and I was getting fed up with the sound of my own voice. So I said right 'lets get out of here!'. We went out to let off some steam and burn some energy (in my case calories). Then I took them out for some lunch. I ordered myself the healthiest thing on the menu, which was a tuna salad. I could not believe what they brought to my table, this was no normal tuna salad, oh no, this was a buffet! Yes there was tuna, yes a great big salad, good, nice and healthy. But there were other things that I would not expect, sliced egg plus egg mayo (huh!), grated cheese with pineapple on top, an assortment of pickles, a mountain of coleslaw and some nuts! I was like, wow, I looked at the person that put the huge oval plate in front of me and thought: did you take a look at me and think she's a hefferlump, she gonna need supersize portions! I had to make sure that I did not eat it all, which is difficult when I was brought up to always finish everything on the plate and er I am prone to binge-eating. These things are sent try us when we try to loose weight. My niece also bought me a box of chocs to say thank you for some of the stuff that I have done for her, temptation, it is every where! It follows me I swear!Quote: I keep trying to loose weight but it keeps following me! (by one of my fridge magnets).

Girl, you crack me up! Do I EVER, know what you mean! After I took the kids fishing today, we stopped at the grocery to pick up a few things. Seems there is a gazillion new, delicious (looking) products, throughout the store. And all I can think is...\"MAN, I wished I had tried that prior to dieting\"...I feel so deprived!..lol!
I am glad you held your ground with the tuna..that was SOME tuna salad! Sounds yummy, though.
My kiddos have been at it, the last few days too...\"fed up with the sounds of my own voice\"...ditto, ditto, ditto! I think the fresh air did us all good, as well. I grabbed a nice sunburn, and feeling a bit tired, already.
Ok..enough rambling, on my part...lol.
Keep up the great work, girl!
Hugs, Paulette :)
