These blogs are mostly for me.  So really, don't waste your time reading mine.  go on to someone's who is blogging for the masses.

I have no idea how long Ive been doing this dietbetter,  but I do know that halfway is next Wednesday.   I had planned to lose all my weight by halfway, then have the challenge of keeping it off for the final half.  I'm not sure that I will make that goal, but it is still remotely possible.  Thanksgiving was FINE.  The food was so healthy that a little over eating didn't do much harm.  I merely barely tasted the three pies, no room at that point for desserts anyway.  I would have eaten even more, but my sister-in-law seems to think good food needs butter all over it and filled with it -- YEECH -- so I barely tasted many great dishes that were too full of butter.   I didn't know it was possible to soak that much butter into everything.  I watched the sticks of butter melted into the huge bowl of fresh greenbeans and wanted to yell STOP!!!  No surprise she is as wide as she is tall, and with health issues...   Not to be pointing fingers.   My hips are aching today from something I did ( sit in a car for two days??) so won't work out much today.  stretching maybe.  maybe all that butter made my hips rebel by crying in pain.   ok, hips, I won't do that to you again.
