Also, for the record, it's pretty rude to eat continuously through an entire presentation, regardless of whether its candy or carrots.
I'm about 137 right now, not too far off but a bit dismayed that I am moving in the wrong direction with 2 months to go. My dress is a loose sheath, nothing fitted or frilly but it has a sash belt that unfortunately hits right at my apple-shape trouble spot. Oh well, spanx were invented for a reason.
The guy eating candy at the meeting actually made me a bit sad. It's entirely unprofessional behavior, and something most people would never do while surrounded by colleagues. Something about his machine-like consumption of so much chocolate so quickly, it struck a chord with me. My former binge eating was always in private, but otherwise was very similar in that I was inserting food in my mouth with no mindfulness of the act.
Saef: ditto to the wish that you will have the chance to wander Savannah on your own, unfettered.
