I think I mentioned this, but here it is again. Since Nov. of last year, I have gone from about 280 to 200-210 (I am 6'4" and large framed - so, ten pounds is no biggie on me) -- I will NEVER again be at the weight I was in those recently posted Vegas pics. I thought I looked okay in them, but when I was there, I remember being horrified at how nothing fit me correctly - and I was only probably about around 250 in those pics. My waist has gone from about a 40 to a 32. I want to maintain that. So, during the week, I am very watchful of what I eat - but sometimes I splurge at other times, like today I had for lunch a grilled chicken Caesar salad and I let myself have two dressings instead of none - like I usually do. I find that if I deny myself all of the time or for more than one week, I fal off the wagon for a week.

So, when my free days come once a week, I usually go for popcorn and milk duds at the movies and then a large, fattening, fabulous dinner!!!!!!!!
