tgif!

Well the end of the week has been much more in control than that beginning of the week. The important thing is that I got that control back, and I'm back on plan. The scale is showing to be up a little more than a pound right now, but if I can get out of this week with only a gain of about a pound, I will be really happy. Then I can hope for a nice loss the next week.

This weekend, I have a quiet house all to myself (no roommate, yes!). So I'm hoping to get somethings done around there, including these place cards I am planning to make for my mom for her big Thanksgiving Dinner ( I have about 30 to make, I need to start now!). They should turn out really cute, and when I get them done, I will have to take some pictures and show you guys. Other than that, pretty mellow weekend, I have no sweetheart (well except my dog), so i won't be celebrating sweetest day, although the weather is going to be nice, so maybe my sweetheart and I will get out for a hike.

Had a really good dinner last night, called Sweet and Spicy Chicken. I will post the recipe this weekend. Good, and low point. Unfortunately my version was a little higher in points because apparently no one in my area carries sugar-free peach preserves. So I had to use regular (which I did reduce), but they are 50 calories for 1 Tablespoon! Holy calories batman!

Well i think that's it for now, but I hope everyone has a great weekend, and keep up the good work guys! Happy Sweetest Day! Weigh In Report on Sunday AM.

Placecards...that is so Martha! I usually have to run mine out of the kitchen to keep them from eating everything straight from the pots! My grandkids only want pumpkin bread...their favorite part of Thanksgiving!
