Back on the wagon again

I jumped off the wagon last night, full force. :D It was the company Christmas party, not like McDonalds, Krispy Kream or any of those that I drive by regularly. We had a wonderful dinner, prime rib, au gratin potatoes, turkey meatballs. Oh, it was yummy. I figured I might as well go the full montey, so I had cosmos and endulged on dessert as well. I was so thirsty. I probably doubled my water consumption from what I drank there alone. I was a good girl though, I burned off many of those excess calories on the dance floor. ;) We really did have fun. My mother in law was very kind and came to stay with the kids for us (we had originally thought we'd stay overnight downtown).

Today though, fully back into the swing. I started the morning with a shake, vanilla. Then, went into cookie mode a few hours later. Worked out perfectly. I expected cravings, etc and was pleasantly surprised with none. In fact, the communion grape juice tasted really sweet, like almost overly sweet.

Dinner tonight was a Smart Ones entree- chicken carbonara. Not too bad. Much better than getting my tired body into the kitchen to cook. It seriously cracks me up how many of the frozen things I've done at this point....I'm just not into them under normal circumstances. I'm going to do my best this week though not to have them. I'd like to avoid the salt.

According to my bathroom scale, I'm down 2+ pounds from 2 days ago.
