Ht. 5'5", Wt. 167 - Hey guys! I did super well sconsidering today was Thanksgiving! I don't want to brag..but I have to share some tips and success for the following holidays! Well I had a good, filling breafast this mornin, oatmeal with sliced aple and skim milk. Before we left for the party I had a lowfat ypgurt. When we arrived I was armed with apurse full of hard candies and tips from a weight loss magazine. I had a platter full of veggies and lowfat dip and salsa to fil me up, lots of water, adn then I chewed on a mint. At dinner, I ate mushrooms, a small portion of potatoes, some meat, and lots of water. When I was full I stopped and didn't eat any more, leaving some food untouched. Then I chewed a mint and tlaked. At dessert, I had two small slices of only the pies I truly wanted with a scoop of lowfat ice cream. Between dinner and dessert I danced a little bit. SO I had NO SECOND PORTIONS, NOT EVEN GRAVY OR CRANBERRY SUCE! I had so much fun. So my tips are" 1.) Drink lots of water 2.) CHew on mints so you won't go for seconds 3.)Social, tlak, play borard games!! Have fun! 5.)Eat only what you REALLY WANT! And even if you screw up, it was just one day. :0)
