BAD!!!! After being snowed in with 2 kids for 2 days, and finally getting to see people, I ate one of my sis' peanut butter kiss cookies and a double chocolate chip oatmeal cookie on CHristmas eve and then yesterday, I ate some spicy bites, but tried to not eat the party bread they lay on, but where the meat was some of it stuck. LOL, my plate looked like some little kid was playing, but I wanted as much bread off as possible! There was absolutely nothing else there for me to eat, except they had little rolls with ham on them, so I took the ham off the rolls, but felt wasteful...but better wasteful than a waist full! Other than that, MIL had chips, chex mix and sweets, which is why I just messed with the spicy bites. I think I'm going to play with making my own using the cream cheese/egg deep dish pizza crust and put the cheese/saus/hamb meat mixture on top after I cook/cut the crust into bite sized pieces! No one was able to get out because of the 2 feet of snow to get relish stuff. I knew they weren't going to have it at my sis on Christmas eve, so I took some radishes/celery, to eat the spinach dip on, but figured since my mil lives in town she would have veggies and stuff! Figured wrong! All in all, not good, but not totally overboard like I could/would have done in the past! It didn't help that the unfriendly monthly fairy came on the 23rd either! I'm going out today to stock back up on groceries/veggies and get the stuff to hopefully make the spicy bites legal--so I will be better prepared next time and for New Years!

Sung to the tune My little puppy's name is Wags:

My little belly's name is Bags
She eats so much her tummy sags....
She didnt go illegal
But she did carb creep....
Oh my ...she feels... bloated and weak
Today she's back on in... duct... ion
Cause on New Yrs eve she wants to have some fun
She wants her clothes to hang just right...
So she won't carb creep, she'll fight fight fight!!!!!


Second verse.....same as the first...little bit louder and a little bit worse..I am so full I cant eat so am off to walk, we got a foot of snow and it looks beautiful outside and so quiet .. :hug

yep being prepared and planning are the key to succeeding with any thing we really want to acomplish.

Happy low carbing.

oops Canuck you snuck in while I was posting back to 4myself4mykids.

Love your song. too bad it was needed though. Enjoy that snow and your walk STAY AWAY FROM THE ICE!!!!!!! We want you back in the exercise full time shape before your injury last winter although not saving your son to prevent the injury wasn't even a choice :hug

OK, starting now, for the next 2 days I am going to stick to a strict induction, with plenty of water! I'm planning on that yummy deep dish pizza from Linda's Low Carb recipe site for New Yrs. Its been awful being cooped up, stressed out at the hospital with hospital food and the proceedings are Sun/Mon so that gives me Fri/Sat to get my fat a@@ in gear and get back on track. Sun/Mon might be hard, but I know that I can pack a lunch and a couple water bottles with me, so I'm hoping emotions don't get the best of me and I can do good those 2 days too.....I'm ready, and my mind is set!
