TO EAT OR NOT TO EAT

I was pretty controlled yesterday knowing that I had a party at night.  This was a wonderful venue of hundreds of acres off a dirt road in Caledon and leading up to a house that looked like The Palace of Versailles.  Even there I managed to eat within reason but the continual refilling of my wine glass paid toll on my tummy today.

It is interesting looking around at the people.  I doubt that any of them overate.  Cheryl Hickey from entertainment TV fame looking absolutely ravishing.  I happened to be behind her at the buffet table.  I was carefully taking lots of cooked green vegetables and a few slices of filet of beef.  She took 3 small slices of lettuce.  I asked it that was it and she answered, yep.... just air and water.  There is no question she looked amazing and I thought how difficult it would have been for me to do that.

I was reading a tip in the Weight Watchers guide yesterday that says "if it doesn't taste that good, don't eat it"....  meanwhile the opposite is true too... "if it tastes too good, don't eat it.... because it is probably laden with fat, sugar and/or calories".  So what is left.  I still believe in moderation.  It isn't overnight weight loss though!
