Chilly Around Here (and not the kind you eat)...



We're on the boat for a few days - gotta get the Christmas stuff in, in this location. It's cold but we aren't complaining at all. We love the water!

I kept track of points yesterday and probably ate the most I've had in 2 months - around 30 WW points worth. Not bad at all but I don't know how many points I'm allowed at this stage. I will look it up!

Today I have had some things sweet - 4 points, a tossed salad with FF dressing - 3 points, some turkey - 1 point, some salad dressing for dip that isn't fat free - 3 points - that's 11 points. I have some more eating I can do tonight, however, I will not force myself.

One reason it was difficult dealing with a lot of weight to lose was the fact that it took so much to get me satisfied. My grandmother used to say, "It takes 3 days to shrink your stomach to where you don't want as much to eat." She never saw the day she had to cut back - her weight was perfect - but I remember her offering that advice to my daddy when he'd try to lose a few pounds. Well, my stomach must be the size of a tangerine because it doesn't take much to fill me up at this point. .....

However....

I am eating twice what I was eating the first month before the dr. changed the med. so I have to watch it.

Very thankful to God. That's what I am on this frosty December night as I see a choir on TV and hear them singing the Hallelujah Chorus from The Messiah. Awesome!
