Hi there!! I am here - things were just busy, busy, busy and now they are starting to return to normal.
I am OP and had a good holiday. I did not overindulge, but I did use extra points for sweet potato casserole, a REAL crescent roll with REAL butter, and a piece of punkie pie. LOL Mmmmmmmmm
I am preparing to tackle Christmas. We got hit REALLY hard financially this year, so it is going to be WAY sparse, but I will see what I can find at Goodwill and such. I have time, thank goodness!
Off to take Anna to the doctor for pinkeye. Sigh and blech!
It's great to see everyone back after Thanksgiving. I weighed in and lost 7.8 lbs. this past week, I couldn't believe it. I'm feeling a lot better but have a long way to go. I just keep telling myself one day at a time, and make mini goals so I'm not overwhelmed with how much I have to lose.

I'm back home. It is great to spend time with family but it is so good to get home and back to my routine. I did pretty good at my sister's for T-giving. I made a few mashed potatos with skim milk just for me. Cooked a few frozen veggies for me before she poured cheese over the rest. I made 2 apple pies but kept out a few apples that I added splenda to. Then went to my in-laws. Everything is so confused with Dad in the nursing home and visiting him that we didn't do much planning on meals. Had ham and more ham. I did buy some skim milk and had my shredded wheat for breakfast. I'm not sure I want to get on the scale tomorrow after all the ham and sitting in the car for 8 hours today. I'm sure I'm retaining fluid. I never seem to drink enough water when I'm away from home. I only needed to lose 0.1 pound by Thurs. to reach 75 pounds lost but I'm afraid I'll have a gain. Tomorrow is back to the gym. From what I've read of the back posts it seems like everyone is doing great.
