Eating Out & Planning

What a difference a year makes..
The top photo is of my grandson *Surfer Dube* taken a year ago
And the bottom one taken a month ago...
Who would have ever known a year ago he'd have ALL these curls.
I LOVE THEM OF COURSE!



A quick update...
Have been out all day and this evening we meeting two other couples for dinner...

This has been my preparation for eating out this evening...
I have 12 bonus points available from working out this week ( we only allowed to save 12 )
Today I've been very careful with my breakfast and lunch, have not snacked besides my two fruits.
I go to dinner with 10 of my 20 available points and the 12 bonus points- of course I'll be making good choices for my meal, I'm not seeing this as time to overeat or overeat on the wrong foods.

When at Subway's this afternoon, hubby wanted to know if I wanted to eat something, I said no, only coffee as I'm saving my points for dinner. He honestly thinks I'm nuts, and I'm sure anyone else who has never struggled with their weight, lost it and now fears gaining it all back will actually understand where I am at the moment.
I know how quickly I can gain the weight back..in a flash its possible - for me this is how I'm going to tackle my future when it comes to foods...I have to plan ahead and always be aware and make the best choice with what's available to me.
I want this to be a life long lifestyle change and not a temporary one.

Hope you all having a great weekend...

My thoughts are with my family today, my little niece turned 3 - she's having her birthday party this afternoon. My grandchildren have been invited...I've told my mom she has to keep speaking to them about their Nana, she has to let them know their Nana misses them and loves them very much...I hope she remembered!!!
