Just wanted to let you guys know that for the first time since I started my journey I am going away for a few days. We will be leaving Friday morning sometime and returning Sunday evening. So, I will be MIA. If I don't check in by late Sunday evening - send out the troops - because something fishy has taken place.
DH and I and 4 other couples are going to a resort/spa. We got a really good deal, but to cut down on costs we're bringing our own food and will all eat together in a specified room. I'm more then a little scared. It's the first time that I will be away from all my "stuff". And my scale.
The problem is that 3 of these women are FANTASTIC cooks. Main courses, side dishes and desserts. SCARY. I will bring along my Fiber One and Kashi Go Lean cereals and skim milk. Fat free yogurt. Yes, we will have a fridge in our room. I am bringing along a huge bunch of roasted green beans and garlic. Roasted zucchini, mushrooms, peppers and onions. I will bring along cucumbers, baby carrots, grape tomatoes. And some hummus. I'll also bring grapes, cherries, apples, plums and peaches. I'm roasting some chicken right now to bring along as well and lots of cooked salmon fillet. So yes, there will be plenty of my healthy stuff - but there will be plenty of other stuff as well. I'm sure it will all be fine. Uh huh, that's what it will be - fine.
I'm really looking forward to it - we're all really good friends and it should be nice. I might even get a massage, haven't had one in over 21 years. There is a gym there, so that's great.
My biggest dilema right now is - packing. I have so much darn clothing, I can't figure out what to bring.
