LUNCHING AT XMAS TIME...

This week, I've been staying late at work and rushing around town during the day doing office errands so I can get caught up before I take time off over Xmas. It's been very hectic! But I've been very careful to make sure I'm drinking plenty of water and that I have lots of apples and clementines and such around to snack on. And whenever I begin to complain about how tired I am or how my poor wrists ache, I think about the 2 blissful weeks ahead of me!!!! Ahhhhhh! What a lovely thought!

I was driving back to work from the bank yesterday and I noticed something on the side of the road! So, keeping in mind the fact that I've lost 8 pounds over the past 2 months, I thought to myself:


*
"Why wait until the 25th to wreck your healthy diet. Why not start today!"

Screeeeechhhhh!

(Sound of car veering off course and into DQ drive-through!)

Yum, Yum!!



I had a Moolatte chaser!

I think that lunch was well deserved and I'm sure you enjoyed it. I think I'm going to treat myself today at lunch just because I deserve it too.

Ya just have to fall off the wagon and treat yourself every once in a while. Then that old wagon isn't quite so hard to crawl back up on.

You are crazier than I gave you credit for girl. I mean anyone who would diet this time of year...WoW! Congrats on the eight pounds. (on my knees bowing here!) Whoohoo!

Have a great day girlfriend!!!

BTW: your word recognition here is peddlebra....hummm, a bra with training wheels maybe?

I can't help joining you at D.Q. now and then. I've been pining for a good, greasy hamburger & fries, and this put me over the edge!

Congratulations on those 8 pounds. That's fantastic. You must be very proud.

You have very good judgment and I am sure you enjoyed the lunch. Now of course is the time for sterner stuff re food, but we do need to have these occasional treats!

Dimple said...

Hi Sandy-enjoy your treats! I'm saving the fruitcake that's left for Friday; some family members will like it, I think!
Hope your Christmas is wonderful!

This was too funny! I pictured a dead possum or deer...some kind of roadkill...and then you hit us with that hamburgers and fries!
Congratulations on the weight loss! That's the exact amount I GAINED in the past two weeks.
Rotten 12 Nights of Christmas snack party at work. Next year I will kindly request that they find some place besides the shelf directly behind me to leave the goodies out all night long.

Isn't there a law against dieting over Christmas? Well if there isn't, there should be. Glad you enjoyed that. We will all starve ourselves in the new year. I always start my diets on Mondays and it usually lasts until teatime on Mondays (sigh), but one day, yes one day, I will stick to it, but just not on a Monday.
