Happy 4th
Hopefully everyone is having a happy and safe 4th of July. I'm actually working today. My job I have to be here on holidays unless they fall on my days off. But it's ok, I'm the only one in my section so I have the TV on and it's all good.
I changed my weigh -in for Monday. I got on the scale today and liked that number better. :)
Last night's dinner party at Rocco's was real nice. I thought it was going to be just a few people, ended up being like 20. So much food and all kinds of fattening stuff. But I was very good, I had two pieces of chicken (no skin), some salad, fresh asparagus and 1/2 of a corn on the cob. I did have one tiny, tiny piece of my sister's Lasagna, but it was like two bites. Then for dessert, I had some fresh strawberries with just a dab of Cool Whip. I was very satisfied with what I had and didn't feel deprived at all. I'm trying to enjoy the atmosphere and not let the food be the focal point of the evening.
Today it's back to three NS meals. I still have enough meals for another week (except lunch) so no hurry on my NS shipment. I will likely get it either Wednesday or Thursday. Strange thing is that both my previous shipments have arrived on a Wednesday, which is good since that's my day off and I don't want that box sitting on my porch in 105 degree heat. So hopefully this one will arrive Wednesday or Thursday also.
I will go to the gym today. I should have gone yesterday but just didn't have a chance. i worked all day and then went to the dinner party until almost 10pm last night. But today I will.

Well first off I have to say that the July 4th banner is quite the sight; must be that neon Vegas influence :-)
Congrats on the extra 4.5 pounds down. I always keep my weigh-in day the same (Sunday) with the one exception when I was out of town and I made it Monday that week. I like to see the consistency (in time if not weight loss LOL) in my graph on the NS site.
Next, you'll probably see this comment on Emily's site too where I left it for her but here goes anyway - you say "I was very good." It may seem petty but you are a good person whether you overeat or make bad food choices. IF you make bad choices (which you didn't this happily didn't this time) you're still a good person who just made some bad or unhealthy food choices - that doesn't make you a bad person. Subtle difference but I think an important one psychologically. OK off my soapbox....
NS tends to ship the food every 28 days on the same day of the week - so it tends to arrive on the same day barring any delays at either their warehouse (due to lots of stuff on backorder or out of stock - once my shipment was delayed 5 days) and barring any UPS problems.
Happy Fourth.
Good job on the dinner! That can be a tough situation, and it's often hard to control ourselves in that situation. It always feels good to be in control though.
