Default I survived girls night!

I am so proud of myself! Me and my girlfriends get together once a month w/o kids/husbands and spend one whole evening playing bunco. There is always a ton of candy, cookies, desserts, and carbolicious stuff. I was so tempted to eat some of it. I brought along a spinach salad with sour cream/salsa dressing. I allowed myself to eat a handful of smoked almonds and that was it! This was a true test of my will power and I aced it! I hope I can do the same when we are on vacation for one week during halloween time.

staying strong is always a success story!

i've moved this thread to Success Stories, a better forum for this type of success. [also gives a disorganized mod the chance to clean her forum]
