Almost 5 mnths out & still learning

You know--speaking of small bites, I can remember, (and not that long ago) when I had taken my grand daughters into Taco Bell for lunch. Sitting there were a couple of mom's with their skinny bodies and I remember wondering--HOW CAN 1 TACO FILL YOU UP??? Well now I know and now I also know that is how they eat and stay slim. Small portions eaten with small bites. ( cause not only could they get by only eating 1 taco--they were so dainty and did it in 15 or 20 minutes. I could down a taco in 2.3 seconds! Oh those were the days and I am glad they are gone!!

WEll- I hope last night was an awakening for me. I read Penni's email to me about DF Francesca & her erosion. I prayed for her & as I did made a vow to be better to my band. Not that Franceca did anything at all wrong - just that we all need to rememeber that we never know when or how we could lose our bands * we need to treat them w/respect & follow the rules to get the most out of them while were able.

Thank you for all the support & I love the crabfork idea & smaller plate- Thanks Penni & Michelle. I actually was using a salad plate but there is no reason why I can't use a saucer;0)

Pink Mary- Its so funny that you wrote about the diary on PBs- I started one the day I read your post- I think thats a smart idea. Like Michelle said its smart to write everything down in a journal- I just have never mastered that- I am going to really try - especially b/c I am going away soon for another 2 weeks- so it should be easy to do.

Pat- Thank you so much for your encouraging PM. I looked at my last PB(Gross I know) & you were right on the button- not chewed as well as I thought:0) Lol - gross- lol :0)

Marimaru- Yes the 1st bite is a big reason for pbs & also my 4 th one- your monta will be one I try & repeat- along with Penni's voice whispering in my ear-"SLOW DOWN or YOU"LL BE SORRY:0)"

I'll let you all know how I do by next Thursday- Thats when I will be determing to keep the fill I have or go back to .25.
