Hi everyone,

I had a quiet and relaxing weekend but not a particularly productive one. It was chilly and rainy and it rained all day again today. I did have a good weekend foodwise. I ate well and within my range and I didn't have any food cravings. I had a meeting in the city today and they brought in sandwiches and tossed salad with vinaigrette dressing on the side. I had salad and half a chicken wrap and coffee. No cookies and I am starting to remember to avoid the diet soft drinks now. Ever since I read a description of it as flavoured salt water I cannot get that out of my mind. Tomorrow Ollie is going to the groomer in the morning and then I'll take him to the kennel after work. Wednesday I'll be at the office part of the day and then drive up to the resort where we're having our strategic planning retreat. I plan to visit my bff on the way back on Friday if she's up to a visit. She has been sick a lot this year. If she's not available I think I'll still go through that city and do a bit of shopping. I'm not sure how well I'll do eating all my meals in restaurants. That kind of food is so high in fat/sugar/salt/calories that it's really hard to stay within a reasonable range. I'll do my best but I am afraid it's going to set me back.

Hi Julie, Congratulations to your dh. It sounds like you had a great day. It sure feels good to be back here with everyone and working on our goals.

Hi Sandrine, Congratulations on your loss, you're off to a good start. It's nice to hear that you're still enjoying that great job too. I'm sorry to hear that you are having divorce difficulties. That can be very frustrating and stressful. It was the only time in my life I've had actual migraines that I needed medication for. It's great to see you here.

Hi Kim, It sounds like you're making good progress in the yard and enjoying your weekends. I had a much better weekend foodwise but I did not make it to the grocery store. Fortunately I picked up enough last Monday to get through the weekend okay.

Have a good evening everyone.

Cheryl
