YAY, I luv seeing that scale going down again! I was afraid I had gained 1 or 2 lbs this last week. Hubby's boss's wife went to Hawaii & brought me back a cute little wooden turtle fridgie magnet that says "Hawaii" on it, & a little can of Macadamia nuts with a little wooden bowl to serve them in. I was very surprised, because although she is a very nice person & we chat when we see each other at my hubby's work, we're not super close. Mostly because they live about 15 miles away in another town. I crochet, so I'll find something very special to make for her for this Christmas. I actually have a dear friend & former next door neighbor who lives on Maui, & have dreamed for years of going to visit her. I'm glad this lady got to go, & that she had fun. She has lived in the country all her life & never really been anywhere but here. I've seen over half of the US between vacations with my parents & a cross country trip Hubby & I took when he got out of the Navy, so I've been very blessed in seeing much of America's beauty. I have been getting more serious about doing my low impact chair exercises & using my exercycle, & I think that made me lose weight in spite of eating the macadamias, & also our 2 DD's & I did our monthly grocery shopping together yesterday & afterwards we ate at Home Town Buffet. I did very well with my meal,as I knew I had not behaved all that well before this, & I'm so happy that my resistance paid off. I haven't eaten at HTB in years because it's 60 miles each way from our home. When we go to the "big city" it's in, we always have a specific purpose (usually a Dr's appt), so we get there, do what we must then get back home, no dilly-dallying. This is Hubby's thinking, not mine. If it was up to me, while there we would visit the Michael's craft store & the Mall, & we'd have to eat out at least once. So, it's a good thing it's not up to me, huh? LOL! Anyway, I'm happy as a cricket,& very motivated to keep up with my exercises. So let's all keep on with exercising & making good food choices, we have this fat thing nailed to the wall, LOL! Hugz, GLAMMER
