Day 6 and all is well

Just a quick check in so you know that I haven't fallen off the wagon or thrown in the towel.

I've made it through the long holiday weekend just fine. We went to a family dinner yesterday and when I was asked (repeatedly) why I wasn't having dessert, answering, "I've decided not to eat pasta, bread or dessert before we leave for Italy." That was acceptable to all.

Teeny tiny homemade bagels

Of course, then I came home, was hungry so did eat a little teeny tiny bagel that the Chef had experimented with the day before. Seriously, it was teeny tiny. Had that with some lox and cream cheese, onions, tomato and capers, and I called it a day!

Today I didn't eat evenly enough throughout the day but when I finished logging in all I ate at dinner on myfitnesspal, I was well within my calorie allowance. I even had enough calories left for some dark chocolate tonight.

Plan for tomorrow, get back into the pool.
