   Hey Lynda, Glad to see a post from you. I was wondering if you were OK. I laughed when I read about you and your mom dining out. Sounds quite a bit like me and my mom.

   I hope you are feeling better today. Everyone has an off day especially when they don't feel well. The thing is not to give up and to get right back on the program and you already did that. You're doing great, you go girl!!

   Who'se that puffy-eyed person looking at me?  Oh no, it's me!  Waaaaaaah! Can't believe that I'm still suffering from this virus/cold; had a raging earache on Friday and am still stuffy, and it seems that I've also turned into the bad tempered ladybird, too. Or is that just the after-effects from eating poorly? But it's probably also not being able to exercise, too.

   
   

   I've really had to sleep it off and rest as much as possible, but still having to take care of my mother meant that I made the huge mistake of taking her to a local cafe/diner yesterday for convenience - we eat very differently and although there are a few places that we can both enjoy a meal, I really wasn't up to it.  Knowing that most of the meals are overcooked and reheated from frozen, I chose a burger - the picture looked quite enticing, lots of salad....but what came was something completely different, and not even a single vegetable, either on the burger or the plate!  But I was sooo hungry that I ate it anyway, grumbling all the while.  And then I was furious when my told the waiter it was very nice when he enquired about our meal!  (I had a mouthful at the time!) She found it quite entertaining, looking at the disdain on my face, watching the gloop that was meant to be cheese actually drip out.  It really resembled something left behind by Ghostbusters....yuk!  Am wondering when I turned into such a food snob? I am not joking when I say that McD's would have been ten times better!!!!  But during the afternoon I was feeling hungry again and craving something, and remembered that I'd bought a packet of oaty biscuits (crunchy cookies) especially for my friend, as you do, but I opened them and kept reaching for another and ate about 6.  

   
   

   So, lesson learned, just a simple dinner of raw veg, fresh bread, taramasalata, chickpeas, hummus and olives.  My mother had to watch me crunch away happily, whilst waiting for her pie in the oven and her veggies to be steamed, but peace was restored after we'd both eaten, lol!

   
   Thankfully, today is a new day.

    Hi, the Bum Thumb is not as "Bum" anymore! Thank you for asking =) I was finally able to do non-biking exercise beginning earlier this week, but again-- the injury reminded me how much I love to sit on the stationary bike and read my books =) It's such a guilty pleasure. Thank you for checkin' in on me!

    Well, I'm only publicly showing my weight every Monday, but since I went out to dinner last night (and had a great time!) with a friend I was curious to see if there had been any change to the scales.  Absolutely no change, this is good news because I was a little anxious at the total calories I ate for the day.  But I really enjoyed the meal - it was an impromptu, spur of the moment thing and we decided to go to a Mexican restaurant.

    
    

    We both ordered fajitas - every other choice came with rice, beans and fries - I chose the steak one, and with olives for starters the serving size was perfect.  I ate 3 small tortillas, think we left about half of them (yes, it is possible not to clean up the plate, lol) and I didn't feel overstuffed afterwards.  No desserts, but I enjoyed a fresh pear and some nuts when I eventually got home (we didn't rush our meal, and noticed that the tables around us changed about 3 times during our evening!). I drank water and we shared a cocktail - ooops, just realised I haven't added this to the food journal yet! - but usually we'd share a bottle of wine, sometimes more, so this is a vast improvement.

    
    

    But the best thing is that I took my measurements again today - after all, it is disheartening to see no change on the scales, especially when I've been exercising daily - and whuhooooo, I've lost an inch off my hips plus that inch that went on to my thigh last week..... happy dance, happy dance, happy dance!!! I really felt as though I had lost weight this week so this just goes to show that you mustn't rely on the scales only to measure your success!
