I have some barbecue pop chips which aren't too bad.<br /><br />We just laid out a flatiron steak to thaw and then grill for supper, and I will have to think of something else to fix--maybe some barbecue baked beans?dupsterhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18088114640385927198noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7381223979507114346.post-15554936895039882752012-05-27T07:46:40.680-04:002012-05-27T07:46:40.680-04:00I don't have much planned but before the weeke...I don't have much planned but before the weekend is up, I plan on having some ice-cream!

Three pounds is not bad at all to deal with.<br /><br />I have no plans this weekend, but to get caught up on work and get my house ready for next weekend. That will be the test of all sorts of willpower for me. My nephew is graduating from HS and his party is Saturday. His dad is very ill and the family is coming out of the woodwork to "see him one last time". We have out-of-town relatives arriving on Friday to spend the weekend with the last one leaving on Monday. The clan is gathering at my house Friday night and I was told "we'll just order pizza". My "out-laws" can be very trying in the best of times - who knows what next weekend will bring!DebbieShttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10858139788709675770noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7381223979507114346.post-11001543722295264472012-05-27T01:58:52.268-04:002012-05-27T01:58:52.268-04:003 pounds is totally doable.

Monday was going to be a quiet family BBQ but it has turned I to a 20 person Mega event. Will probably have a little more trpu Nile that day. It I will do my best...enjoy your weekend!mamadwarfhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00620825342324421562noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7381223979507114346.post-4723687639613312092012-05-26T14:02:59.281-04:002012-05-26T14:02:59.281-04:00Congrats on the vacation weight successes!

We used to have snacks while watching TV every night, but my dad was really great about taking us on bike rides and getting us involved with softball. Unfortunately, I kept up the snacking at night habit, but not the exercise habit. ;)<br /><br />I know what you mean about eating out. My current weigh-in day is Friday, but we have Chinese take-out every Thursday night. Sometimes I wonder if the sodium affects my weigh-in. We might have to move Chinese night to Mondays. :-PSarahhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14704469867788218608noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7381223979507114346.post-67186309073401961212012-05-26T12:22:56.826-04:002012-05-26T12:22:56.826-04:00This weekend is basically stay at home but the hub...This weekend is basically stay at home but the hubs is off on Monday so we are taking our kiddos on a hike. One of my biggest fears is that my kids will end up just like us. Chubby (I hate the "f" word), overweight and unhappy with themselves. As my husband and I pull ourselves out of the pit of weight gain, we are trying to teach our young kids good eating habits and to stay active. We try not to use food as rewards for our kids as often as it was used for us as children. Kudos to you for staying on track during your vacation. My hardest thing to do when I'm away from home is drink water. Or much of anything for that matter. I get all dehydrated and then my body wants to hang on to every ounce of everything its got. Thanks again for your blog and the inspiration it give me!Jodihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17903223337794218655noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7381223979507114346.post-9915615325575711142012-05-26T11:21:40.567-04:002012-05-26T11:21:40.567-04:00Kudos to you for keeping it under control while st...Kudos to you for keeping it under control while still enjoying your vacation freedom from thinking about it. <br /><br />DH and I can undo a whole week's weight drop in one night, lol. I'm envious of your ability to take it right back off. I know ours is related to sodium, usually restaurant Mexican food every weekend, or chips if we stay home. Maybe a gallon of water would work. ugh.Cherihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16296750630075402269noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7381223979507114346.post-55124995182326662172012-05-26T09:42:51.848-04:002012-05-26T09:42:51.848-04:00"oink fest" made me laugh aloud at work...."oink fest" made me laugh aloud at work. Ha. :)<br /><br />We're heading to Detroit to visit relatives Sunday morning and staying through Monday evening. This trip will involve coneys, Greektown, and a BBQ at my aunt and uncle's house. They are pretty famous for their BBQ and desserts, so this is Willpower Weekend. <br /><br />Luckily, everyone knows I've been losing weight, so I doubt they'll try to force-feed me. They ARE Polish, however, and god forbid you aren't eating or drinking something every five minutes, so we'll see. ;)Sarahhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14704469867788218608noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7381223979507114346.post-16359257222025169452012-05-26T08:49:15.330-04:002012-05-26T08:49:15.330-04:00I am glad vacation damage was at a minimal, lol.

I was planning lots of outside time, but now we're under a high wind advisory (30-50 MPH wind, maybe higher) so I think I'll have to find some inside stuff for us to do instead. Probably a cookout Monday. Little guy's first T-Ball game was supposed to be Monday, but it's been cancelled. <br /><br />Enjoy your weekend, and I'm glad you have relatively good news on you first week back weigh in.another layerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15756727485274694135noreply@blogger.com
