Plans on hold!
Oh dear, best laid plans, and all that - no sooner do I start a
weight-loss programme than my husband gets asked to go to Poland for a week and is taking me with him! We will be back in a week; in the meantime, I think my weight-loss plan had better go on hold. I won't destroy everything in one week.... Back in August! -- Annabel Smyth http://www.amsmyth.demon.co.uk/index.html Website updated 18 July 2004 |

Enjoy the trip, Annabel. This is a time to test the maintenance mode!

Well, the thing is, vacation is probably not the best time to start a new WOE. Have fun in Poland! I look forward to hearing all about it. -- jmk in NC |

Although that sort of dish is practical and quick in the extreme..... just wish it weren't quite so fattening. -- Annabel Smyth http://www.amsmyth.demon.co.uk/index.html Website updated 18 July 2004 |

I tend to agree with you, but we have someone here (I think it's Barbara Hirsch, but I could be wrong) who eats out almost all the time and still lost/maintains weight. janice |

Isn't that why they built restaurantsG I've found it just as easy to eat out if you pay attention to portion sizes, choose from the healthier entrees and don't be afraid to request special orders. I always ask them to omit any additional butter, sauces, etc when preparing the food. I'm heading off for a few days with the granddaughters tomorrow. We'll be spending a few days in Dollywood amusement and water parks in Tennessee. I may not lose anything on the trip but I certainly don't plan on gaining during this time. Beverly 177/147/140 |

I always ask them to omit any additional butter, sauces, etc when preparing the food. I'd like to add that I ask about the portion size (how many ounces is the salmon fillet?) and I feel free to ask for substitutions as I see fit (could I have double vegetables and no rice?). I've always asked for salad dressings on the side. I did not have the confidence to make so many requests a year ago though. I'm not sure why I thought that it would be hard... -- jmk in NC |
