A Food Filled 5 Days!

[cruisergal]

The next 5 days will really be a challenge for me. I have dinners, birthday parties, and luncheon from now till Wednesday, inclusive. I have already been preparing for the challenge. For a few of the events, I am bringing a dish, and will definately make sure it is something DH & I can eat. I am also going to have some vegie soup at home, before going to a couple of events, so it will fill me up a bit, so that I don't overeat. I have also take out some slim pictures of me, from the last time I was on this WOE, and looking at them every morning, for positive affirmations. I am determined to keep losing during this challenging period. Any other suggestions on what I can do, for the next 5 days?

It sounds as if you are getting well prepared for the next few days

I look forward to hearing how well you did afterwards

It sounds like you are prepared and that's half the battle! I would suggest that you concentrate on talking instead of eating and stick to the veggie trays. Good luck!

Looks like you have it all prepared! I always have this stuff in my life, literally every weekend there is a social event of some sort and I just I talk a lot, so that helps me LOL

usually ppl make some sort of meat dish that you could eat...like maybe hamburgers or something? steaks?

maybe you could bring a meat tray with cheeses and rolled up meat...everyone likes those...

and I'm sure they might have salad available?

thaz the only suggestions I can think of

Thx everyone for your suggestions. Tonight is the easy one, as I am having a dinner party in my home, so I know I can control the meal that I make, and of course, everything will be legal Tomorrow is my FIL's birthday, and my MIL always makes a huge meal. I did though tell her that I am back on Atkins WOE, in advance, so that she doesn't make a big deal about it in front of everyone, like she used to do the last time. I am also bringing a couple of dishes, including the famous Atkins Cheesecake, which everyone loves. So I won't feel like I'm missing the Birthday Cake. I'll let everyone know how it goes.
