@retiredteacher Good for you Carol, you must feel so proud of yourself. Not only have I eaten more than I should this week, but I haven't managed to exercise since Wednesday. I definitely will tomorrow. I had such plans to be good when we went to my stepson's for Thanksgiving dinner but dinner had to wait until their son arrived from SF so we didn't eat until 9:00 PM! Of course we were all starving by then so the crackers and cheese and other appetizers were gobbled up. I brought numerous desserts and I did manage to just have one small piece of a pear, cranberry, walnut crostata that I bought at an excellent local bakery. I made everything else myself so I was able to resist them since they were things I have often prepared before.

@contentandwell JK, Don't beat yourself up. As they say. "If you fall off of the wagon, just hop back on and keep going." That's what makes holidays starting with frightening Halloween through New Years really hard for me. I love all the goodies, but being in control helped me get through the first two and now Christmas and New Years to go. I've made up my mind, and that's the solution for me. That and being accountable to other walkers. Forgive yourself and get on the road again when you are ready.
I'm so glad you are with me.
@retiredteacher, Carol
