Halloween Damage Report: Got into the chili and cheese but avoided the chocolate. Even though I ate 100 extra calories I'm declaring it a success!

Looks like there is going to be a change in my life. DH has accepted a job where he will be out of town 4 days a week. It is up to me to take full advantage of those 3 free evenings. On those days I won't be tempted by any of his menu items and I can use the Wii until I drop.

It is a good opportunity if I use it. Again - it is all up to me.

Hey Buffy- good for you for avoiding the chocolate- I gave in to the reeses peanut butter cups :(- but managed to limit it much better than I usually would. Change can be a good thing.Hope the change in your life is good for you -it will definitely be easier to feed yourself and not be tempted to have a bite or two of what DH is having. You are motivated for positive change so I'm sure you will make it work :)

I would say that is a huge success....one small amount of chocolate would have been 100s of calories - so well done! I'm liking the new opportunity....when do you start???

Bren - When I moved to NC he was still living in NY and we only saw each other every other week - so I know this will be OK. You are so right about the new month - good motivation to start it off right!
