Had our usual gumbo for lunch and a bowl of cabbage slaw.
Met with a friend around 4 and talked with her and had 2 cups of coffee with milk and ate quite a few nuts....was not sure what they were serving at the party and I did not want to be ravenous.
I Survived another party bringing and drinking hot tea while others drank. I also was very aware of what I was eating. I ate 5oz of chicken and a big helping of salad with a light balsamic dressing, one bite of not so good chocolate brownie. I gave the rest to a friend.
I was social and tried to talk to people there, when the conversation lulled I went and sat next to Jeff. Our friend who hosted the party was celebrating his own birthday.
He and his wife live 2 1/2 hours away from each other. Just found out that she applied for a position here and we are thrilled.
The evening was a success.
I only drank tea, ate healthy, and was social.
All in all we enjoyed the evening.

I'm so glad that you enjoyed the party with your sober plan and without your usual social anxiety :):):)

You sound like you are much more confident! I love it! :):):)

I was up 3 pounds today so I did not like that.
Maybe it was all of those nuts I ate yesterday, salty smoked.
I know that I should not weigh every day but can't resist.

I am still at a solid 11 pound weight loss in 2 months.
thanks for your support!

Which is better for breakfast?
 
The scale reset it self.
down 14 pounds in 9 weeks.
my weight is fluctuating it seems.
I am eating well! That is of most importance.
Had some oatmeal this morning, I forgot about it as an option in the morning as I usually don't eat breakfast.
But they say you should eat something to get your day started.
I think it is about 150 calories about the same as a banana.
I wonder which is a better choice for breakfast.
my oatmeal has quite a bit of sugar but is very satisfying and I don't have to worry about it being ripe or over ripe. Bananas are easier to grab and go though. I have plenty of oatmeal and right now have not any bananas so it was a no brainer this morning.
We only live 3 blocks from the grocery store.
