Diet Coaches/Buddies – Walked, CREDIT moi, with a group looking for spring birds - despite the cold. Warblers aren't here yet, but we were rewarded with a pair of
Golden-crowned Kinglets which are around only for a short period of time. DW and I saw the movie,
Black Panther, partially out of the fear that we'd feel totally out of it for the rest of our lives if we didn't know what vibranium was or where Wakanda was located. We now know. It was a cultural phenomenon in a constant blow-up superhero plot. The ending is much more positive than the standard Superman plot of my childhood. My take is that you have to see it to understand the references for the next few decades.
Eating was OK, CREDIT moi. It's easier to keep snacks under control when busy. There were many GIANT containers of popcorn at the movies as well as GIANT drinks and GIANT packages of candy. The pricing for GIANT is a bargain compared to the two smaller sizes; without wanting any I was already considering that I'd buy the GIANT versions because they were a better 'bargain'. The mind is so easily duped, LOL.
curlyjax - Happy College Hunting day - hope your DD finds a place that fits. Kudos, indeed, for completing your taxes. [I didn't figure out where Big INK was based; I agree, their website didn't make that clear.]
Beth (bethturnaround) – Super Kudos for standing down all the homemade treats in a festive atmosphere. Hope your final day remains such a positive experience.

Do creative problem solving. The dieters I've worked with have come up with a number of strategies to reduce environmental triggers.
When Cindy started her diet, she made the following rule: No candy in the house. Once a week, however, she would take her kids to the store, and they could choose one serving of whatever candy they wanted as a treat.
