I successfully navigated my way through the fattening fall feasts of 2007.
I did not eat any butterfingers at Halloween. I did eat a few carefully chosen candy bars from my 13 year old daughter's candy stash. I selected things that were chocolate, but not so yummy that I couldn't stop eatting them. Like Nestle's Crunch bars. Those are the lamest chocolate bars ever!

I am finally back on track with my weight. I have been afraid to step on the scale since my last weigh-in on January 2nd…because even my bigger sized jeans were too tight and my eating was out of control. I would come home from work and pig out

After Thanksgiving, I weighed 145 – yikes! That’s what pigging out does for you! I didn’t to much better over Christmas.
I caught a flu over new years, and yesterday I slept all day and ate nothing. Fasting does a body good! Today I weighed 141.
