Even though I'm going out tonight, I feel prepared!
« on: September 02, 2011, 12:12:15 PM »
Today is my 5th day on F2S and I've done really well.  I was expecting to feel hungry, maybe a little cranky--but nope!  Not at all.

Anyway, tonight I'm going with friends to dinner and a concert (Human League, B-52's, Berlin!!  Yes, I'm an 80's girl!!!) and although I know the food and drinks will be right there for the asking, I'm mentally ready to make smart restaurant choices at the restaurant and Diet Coke at the concert.  I'm a beer girl, but I can super duper easily do without. 

So far I haven't told anyone but my kids about F2S.  I want to get through the first couple weeks without having to hear any naysayers or party poopers!  My plan is to tell people after they notice results and ask me what I'm up to. 

I hope you all have a fun Labor Day weekend!

Thanks, Doug!

What's funny is, I sent myself a text of that quote the day I bought and read your book cover to cover.  Now when I flip through my phone I see that NOTE TO SELF.  It's great!  I'm really really really excited about this plan and though was skeptical at first (how many diets have I tried?  YIKES!!), I feel different this time.  Empowered--that's the way I feel.  I'm positive this is going to work, and I thank you for writing your book.

They we're sooooooooooooooo good, and so fun!  I ended up having 1/2 an Amstel Light but that was it as far as carbs go (I still need to look the carb count up), but I danced all night long.  So, it seemed like a decent trade off. 

And as far as looking great for their age...Kate from the B-52's is in her 60's!!!!  But she looks FANTASTIC!!  And Keith is in his late 50's and looks like a kid still.  Cindy and Fred still look good, and they all sound great.  It was lots of fun!

I love going to concerts, and I'm using my next one in October as more motivation.  I'll be meeting up with friends I haven't seen in a while, so it'll be awesome to show up with a little less me attached!   :P
