Hi everyone:

I haven't been posting lately but have been on the forum everyday. I'm glad those pounds are leaving and everyone's doing well.

But...........I haven't seen Lil Miss Texas postings. Is she OK....or maybe on vacation? Just wondering as I know she's had the surgery and I'm hopeing all's OK.

Keep up the good work all. I have lost a total of 13 now and am very pleased!!

WOW Martha !!

You are doing great. I am proud of you.

My husband asked me if I wanted to go out to eat this evening and I said sure, I can do a lean and green and have no problem. Well, I ate the right things but much to much and I was doing so good. But I am about to venture for a walk and see if I can head off the damage a little bit. This is it tho.......ya don't have to hit me with a ton of bricks ..NO MORE eating out. The temptation is too much.

Thanks for the encouragement tho Martha, you are so nice.

Hi, Evie ~

You don't HAVE to stay home - just have the server bring a TO GO box with your meal and put half of it in the box BEFORE you eat.

It will get easier. We are not always perfect and that's ok. I ate chips and salsa at a Jamaican dockside restaurant Friday night and I ate WAY too many chips for my hips....

Sometimes I mess up, too. Just get it together with the very next meal and do all you can to be progam-compliant.

We can Shake on and shake it off!!

Wow Nancy,

What an idea. I should have thought of that. But thanks for looking out after me and yes, the next time my darling husband says, it's up to you, but do you want to go out and eat.........instead of hesitating......I'll say with confidence YES!!

Don't miss out on going out with the hubby anytime he wants to go.. Nancy is right about the TO GO BOX!!!!!! I ask for them all the time.. Americans serving sizes are really TOO BIG for 1 person.. overseas they are alot smaller--this is one of the reasons we as Americans have big weight issues ( I read this in a lot of different books). sometimes Doug and I just share a plate with an extra salad.. I have been to alot of places to eat and they are really nice about complying(sp) with whatever you ask for.. have a great time and I look forward to seeing less of you each week --Martha
