Erin Marsh - 07 May 2005 08:37 GMT I had my first NSV today. My kids were invited to a birthday party, with parents to stay as well. While the kids were eating their chips and sausage rolls etc, the adults were offered a very dark, rich and moist looking chocolate cake, and I didn't have any. I ate a nice point friendly but filling lunch and didn't give into the temptation to eat any of the party food. I had 2 small cups of coffee and that was it.
This was the first time in months that I haven't used a party or special occasion as an excuse to eat whatever I liked. It feels good

Chocolate cake is one of my weaknesses so I was very proud of myself.
I'm having a good week actually. DH was away last night so I was doing the dinner and bedtime routine on my own. This is my most stressful time of the day and the kids were playing up. For once though, I didn't give in to the stress and I cooked myself a very healthy dinner. I'm really feeling good this time around.

>Great NSV Erin. I have one today too, managed to write my journal. Lesanne - 09 May 2005 02:31 GMT Huh? What were you doing up there in redneck land? You should have dropped down to our area, we could have shown you something.

Visiting my sister and brother-in-law. Hit the Dallas Art Museum and the Kimbell in Fort Worth. Both had special shows and were good but that was about all there was to do. Overpasses on the freeway (and TOLLways) were the highest places I saw besides the buildings.
>Huh? What were you doing up there in redneck land? You should have dropped >down to our area, we could have shown you something. Lesanne - 09 May 2005 18:52 GMT Oh my. Nothing to do in Dallas. Gee, you missed the monster truck races? And the womens' mud wrestling? Darn. Now down here we could have gone Kayaking and I could show you a few dolphins or something. We have no mountains around here either, but there are some nice hills around San Antonio, and some actual mountains in Big Bend. You were in the totally most awful part of Texas.

A friend suggested Hooters. Not my sister's cup-of-tea or is that cup-of-E (G)

Lesanne - 10 May 2005 03:43 GMT Hooters. Yes, Dallas' idea of entertainment. I mentioned the kayak thing because DD and I are going to buy a tandem one tomorrow after her last final exam and go out in the bay to dolphin watch and row around a bit. I am really looking forward to it.

Fred - 10 May 2005 05:52 GMT I've a flatwater kayak that has not seen the light of day, well, in quite a while. But I have enjoyed it when I did do it. It is much more intimate with the water than even a canoe. Enjoy the water and the dolphins. Oh, and practice your Eskimo Roll! (g)

Fred - 11 May 2005 03:42 GMT Similar.
It is where you turn the kayak over and then swing it right-side-up while staying inside.

Pelican brand I think. It is big and orange and looks like a real lot of fun. I will let you know if we see dolphins.

Lesanne - 12 May 2005 03:24 GMT Well it was very windy. Granddaughter got a little sea sick we think. It was big fun, and I bet wrestling that thing on and off the van and carrying it to the water burned a few points. Not to mention the rowing in a circle we did.

My son used to go there all the time, complained how awful the food was. When I finally broke down and asked him why he continued to go ... I was told it was NOT for the food. <g> I now have been asked if we can fly Hooters airline to Vegas this summer (I don't think so!).

Erin Marsh - 12 May 2005 03:20 GMT >I don't bring cake into the house, but do indulge when out. But not as much >as before. I am content now with a few bites-- but they can still add up. I don't eat cake when I'm out because I never know the points values, and knowing how yummy my low point chocolate cake is, I'm not prepared to spend a lot of points on normal cake. I often have a cake in the tin but only because I know I'm not going to binge. I'm a bit strange in that the more yummy food there is in the house, the more likely I am to stick to points. It's when I have to struggle to find something low point that I give in and eat whatever I can find.
