Why Be Normal?
Morning All --
In the U.S. people refer to Wednesday as "hump day"... if thet can just get over this middle of the week "hump" then the rest of the standard work week will be all downhill and we can look forward to the weekend.
I've noticed from reading a lot of the posts on this site, that many of our members do not work a standard week (I have read that there is a correlation between working unsocial hours and weigh gain -- interesting, wonder why this is so). Even so -- whether this is your "hump" day or not: I hope that you get through this day and rest of your week is smooth sailing.
I'll be facing a challenge of my own tonight -- it is my first ladies' Bunco evening (a game night) at the RAF Base. We sit a tables with little bowls of tasty treats on either end (more than one bowl on each end). Things like crisps, Roses, Jelly Bellies, and even "excuseable" things like carrot sticks, etc. It is going to be very difficult to not nibble.
I avoid the alcohol calories by being the designated driver -- so only water for me is not a social issue. I just hope no one notices my not nibbling, and I need to remind those that know I am on a diet to please not discuss it. Many of these ladies will remember when I did LL and I do not want them thinking things like, "Oh not again..."
Sorry to ramble on... I hope we all have a Wonderful, Winning Wednesday!
