Angela, congratulations on the 9 pounds! That's absolutely wonderful! Good luck with the visit to your family. How great that you and your sister have a plan. That's a lot better than winging it, since you'll be letting your sister down as well as yourself this way!
And I know what you mean about your son. My DS is 17 months younger than his sister and they are so different. When DD was sick as a baby, she spike a really high temp (104 was typical). DS never spiked a temp at all, but he'd be just as sick. It got to the point where if his nose was running, I took him to the Dr. I even bought one of the ear checkers myself because I thought maybe I was over-reacting. But every time his nose ran, he had an ear infection. He did eventually out-grow them, probably about 3 years old.

Good job handling the munchies craving. It is definitely better to just give in a little than to abstain and then just end up going hog wild!!!
. I had one today and they are sooo good. As far as fat and calories not too bad either since since the serving size is six patties and I get to divide all the fat and calories by six by only eating one 
! Hope you have a great day and keep on doing what you're doing 
I think I'll be the queen of overreactors with DS and his ears. I've ordered the Ear Check device so I can calm my nerves, if nothing else. At least it won't be forever. 
The strawberries were very tasty, and I thought of you when I bought them. 
Good morning Angela!
Can't be gone for a week+ with just one of those, so we turned around and picked things up. Just goes to show that the best laid plans never turn out, at least in my case.
Our lunch stop was at Burger King, and I had some of the chicken tenders. Evidently my body has zero tolerance for them because I spent the rest of the drive and most of the evening feeling quite ill. Because of that I didn't really work out, so my streak is over. I'll make up for it today, though.
I'm sure that the losses will slow way down now that I'm through the first couple of weeks, but it sure is nice to see that big number on the scale shrinking so quickly.
