Some happy days to report
hello friends,
Last Sunday was a wonderful day for me. My favorite niece was with us, along with six of her eight children. We all ate out (sister, me, BIL, and BIL's sister, niece, six kids). We went to a pizza buffet (never knew there was such a thing!) The pizzas were sliced small so we could sample several varieties. My great-nephew was turning 22. He was on leave from the Navy, so was able to join us. Sister and BIL had bought a birthday cake for him.
I ate very sparingly of the pizza because I knew I would want a piece of cake. Been doing well with weight and didn't want to sabotage myself.
My cough is better, but still have some sore throat and "the runs". It's been over 2 weeks since I first took sick. Whatever the virus was, it was powerful. And I caught it during some absolutely beautiful weather!
Yesterday was the food bank and I got some good stuff. Today I went to the supermarket (I go every other week). At the food bank I passed by an apple pie and a strawberry shortcake (big layer cake). Happy to say, I resisted temptation.
I really love my DS friends and thank you for your support!
Judy

Judy, I am so very proud of you. You keep hanging in there and doing what you can to survive. To me that is very important. Each day I wake with a great attitude, and I do t he best I can all day to maintain it. That alone has helped me considerable. I will be extremely supportive, and help you as I can. Please take care Bill, xoxo
Your strength in the presence of pizza is outstanding...not something I can resist! How fun to get together with the family.
I read coconut macaroons help with the dreaded diarrhea! I have not tested the theory yet but I read 2 a day does the trick!
Wow you did good, don\'t think I would have been able to pass on the goodies, or to overdo it with the pizza, lol.
I\'m happy you got to enjoy a meal with family, that\'s always nice.
Sorry to hear that you are still sick, I pray that you feel better soon,
Loving, comforting , Jean
Awwww, thanks.
Sorry you are still a bit ill. How lovely to spend time with family. You have a great amt. of will power.. to eat little pizza to have cake and to pass all the goodies up at the food bank.
a pizza buffet---even though I try to diet, I\'d like to experience one of those.
I\'m maybe notorious at the subway in the local walmart, of trying a half dozen drinks with my meal; only re-fill the cup a third of way to try them all.
Pizza buffet......and family.....what a way to spend a day!!!!
pizza buffet sounds like a lot of fun. and great that you didn\'t go for the cakes. great actually.
i stopped eating frozen foods, out of fear. lol. i was getting numb spots on my nose and upper lip every time i ate them. either its gmo reaction or its from my cholesterol/blood pressure. but it was scary. i stopped a couple of weeks ago. i\'m broiling chicken instead and back to canned veggies and some frozen and the numb spots are gone. now if i could lose weight from that as well, that would be FABULOUS!! lol.
nice that they visited. wow! so many kids! how do people do that? its like a career in itself. i can\'t keep the names straight. we have tara, sara, and zara. i get them wrong EVERY time. lol. easier to say sweetie. or dear. xxoo
Oh yes! Pizza buffets are SO fun! Good on you for not overdoing it!
