Barb - it sounds like there's only one way to handle the arrow of light then. Hope it works out.

Spirit - I sure wish I could smell spring. WE got DUMPED on with snow last night. About 15-18" overnight. :eek:

Cat - it's great to find an exercise program that works for you.

KO - Hello, we haven't met yet. I was just in the store and saw the corned beef and wondered what I'd do for St. Patty's day. I'll just be ending my phase1, so maybe I"ll splurge a little that day.

Kara - Well, my boots always LOOK good, they don't always FEEL good. Today I'm thinking they zipped up a little easier - I didn't have to shove as much of my calf in as usual. I'm gettin' there! Awesome on the countdown to Tom! What's Z-Sweet?

Cyndi - I don't think I've ever eaten curry. Every time I see the spice, it's so darned expensive, I keep on walking....

ME: Well, it was an interesting START with all that snow. DH got stranded halfway up the road, so had to walk the rest of the way. He got into the driveway and the plow went by. Of course, he buried the car in the process. We were LATE big-time getting to the baptism, but people around here understand snow storms, so no turmoil. I WAS A GOOD GIRL!!! I ate the cauliflower, broccoli and some cheese off the snack platter, then at lunch I had the shaved roast beef (was supposed to go on a sandwich, but I ate it plain) and some of the mixed greens salad they served. I at NO BREAD and NO DESSERTS. I was there for HOURS and didn't slip. I came home, had some chili, went to choir and then I didn't even snitch the desserts when I was standing right by the table. This is momentous!

I MUST exercise tomorrow. :yes: Somebody make sure I do? Please!

Gotta go - it's a long day already, and losing that hour was tough. I need sleep now. Good night.

Cyndi, I did NOT see the eggplant spinach dish. But I WILL check it out soon! I happen to have eggplant and spinach in the house right this second! Tom should be in California, although I haven't heard from him yet. Thanks for asking! :lol: He won't be here until Thursday late late night.

Krystal, ZSweet is a new sweetener that's supposed to have no aftertaste. It's one of those no-calorie deals, you know? Great job on the eating today!!!
