And PS, thank you all for the good thoughts. We think she'll probably go tomorrow, on her birthday, which is strange and circular. Either way, we'll be going back on Saturday for a party for her birthday or a celebration of her life, whichever fits with the situation. Thank you for keeping her and my family in your thoughts...I really do appreciate it.

TGIF! My sister and her FW (future wife!) arrived last night only delayed 45 minutes. I'm not sure what their plan is for today (I'm at work) so I don't know if we'll be having dinner with them or not.

Friday:
B - matzoh brie (2 egg matzoh, 1/2 C egg substitute, 1/2 Tbsp butter), 2 Tbsp log cabin lite syrup
S - orange
L - cottage cheese with fruit, green beans
S - half matzoh, yogurt
D - if I cook, it will be potatoes and red cabbage. Otherwise no idea.
E - hoping for a run this evening

Went out to Bistro Lili and had an absolutely amazing dinner. I had: 1 glass of red wine, 1.5 pieces of bread out of the basket with an awesome kalamata spread, salad with spinach, goat cheese, strawberries and sugared pecans, an amazing roasted pork loin with apples/potatoes and vegetables and half a serving of bread budding with sauce. So full. But yummy!

Saturday was 100 calories under target, no exercise.

Today was another story altogether... Breakfast good, lunch food choices pretty good, then the dessert table at my grandmother's house.... let's just say not good... followed up with ground white turkey tacos for dinner, and will probably have a Russell Stover's marshmallow bunny that my mom got me for Easter... the day is already bad, I figure I'll eat the bunny today and start over clean tomorrow...

No exercise for three days and I can totally feel it... Didn't sleep much this weekend with DSS getting us up six times Friday night, five times last night. Didn't have exercise in me with all the driving both days...

Pitch the bunny. If you break a dish, do you break all the dishes?

Sunday


B - Fage fat free greek yogurt, 1/2 package of sliced strawberries, drizzle of honey, 2 tbs Grapenuts for crunch

L - huge salad - romaine, red cabbage, carrot shreddies, red onion, roma tomato, grilled chicken with bbq sauce, a little bit of fat free ranch, crunchy tortilla strips

S - cameo apple with natural peanut butter

S - tea with honey

S - went to a pizza place. I had 10 truffle parmesan french fries (I was lured in by the promise of truffle oil, but they weren't great), Asian chicken salad (basically a big bowl of romaine, a few peanuts, a tiny bit of shredded chicken, dressing on the side). Afterwards, we went next door to Maggie Moo's and I had a kiddie size dark chocolate with waffle cone mixed in, I ate half.
