Hi group! I'm thinking nobody will see this post as it is Sun AM, and a new thread starts tomorrow...hmmm
Anyway - thanks for all the great ideas on handling the weekend, and being at someone elses house. I am happily reporting that I am still 100 percent on program -- something I have *never* (no joke) been able to do for this long. I sincerely hope the "click" has happened, and I can't wait for Tues night weigh in!!
As per your suggestions, I packed up a grocery bag with food I knew would easily work with the program -- including egg beaters, lite cheese, and lite bread for the next mornings bfast. It all came in very handy, and it really wasn't that much trouble to toss some stuff in a bag "just in case."
My sis in law was great and made us a low fat stir fry, and the guys and kids pork chops. She also had an electronic scale (which I LOVED), and we double checked ckn weight, etc.. and figured pts for the meal. The best part is that I had banked enough pts to have one of those sundae ice cream cones with the choco and nuts on Sat night (7 pt item). Oh, and we also did drive through lunch one day, and I pulled out the dining out guide and chose a decent pt. item. As it turned out, forgetting the fries was a good choice as it allowed me the ice cream later that night.
I just had to let you guys know how helpful you have been, and how I rely on this thread to get me through this challenge. I've actually been getting up a 1/2 hr early so I can check in before work!
Thanks (((((((group))))))) Holly
