Melinda, I'm exactly one week older than you! We're practically twins (although that would have been a heck of a labor, stretched out over a week!)
Wow, Dawn. I'm blown away! You should be published.
Super job! Hope you drank lots of water. That teriyaki sauce is super salty, but otherwise, not bad at all, I don't think.
Finally,
Monica. Here's a no-cal cake for you
Have a glass of milk with it for baby.
Thanks guys...if it ever get's published...the Peeps will be in my Acknowledgements...people will assume i moved from an obsession from Simon to sugary marshmallow chicks!![]()

Yep... gotta make the best choices (or at least good ones) as often as possible. For my birthday, I picked what I thought would be the "best" restaurant... Miyako, a Japanese hibachi place (better than Tex-Mex or Italian). I ordered what I thought would be the "best" entree... teriyaki chicken (better than the steak, less cholesterol than the shrimp). I "tapped off" as much of the extra sauce as I could (and gave my daughter part of my chicken because I was getting full)... I ate the parts of the salad without much dressing... drank only water and lots of it. I did have the "fried rice", but I went for lunch when the portions are smaller (and prices half the evening costs) and I try to avoid carbs in the evenings. The meal was very good... though it did taste pretty salty and oily/fatty to me. Guess my tastes are changing!![]()

and y'all are busy!! 
Why did I wait til the last minute?

i couldn't resist weighing myself this morning and i've lost 3 pounds since friday!!!!!! yeah, i know i shouldn't get too excited because people tend to lose weight faster at the beginning of their diet, but i'm very proud of myself. i've stayed around 1,200 calories for the past two days and drank lots of water. thanks so much for all the advice i've gotten from you guys - it's obviously helped!
Isn't that the way it always is? When you are looking for something you can't find it and vice versa? BUT I have exciting news. My mom's 60th bday is in June. My DB and his family may be taking a big vacation that month and won't be around for her actual day. This isn't a huge deal for my mom though - we will just celebrate with them when they get back. So my mom actually said, "well then we should go to Disney that weekend!"

I have to say something diet-y. Umm...Diet
