The Birthday and Thanksgiving Test

It is holiday time and birthday time again.  This test begins 24 hours early.  I was taken out for a lovely overnight stay at one of the area casinos for my birthday.  The stay was great, but the challenge was eating out and the food choices.  I was so proud of myself.  I stuck to protein choices and green vegetables with a lemon water chaser.  Did I want some thing for desert?  YES...  Did I have it?  NO.NO.NO.   It was actually very nice to have many choices to eat.  
Thanksgiving was the same thing, but we got a lot of questions about what we can and can't have.  Everone was fine and I even got some compliments on my reduction in size.  I know I have been shrinking, but sometimes it takes the validation from an outside person to make it real.  I am not afraid of holiday meals anymore. 
Lets see on Monday if everything works out.  Fingers crossed......
