Yes, We Can!!
January 22, 2009
Well, this past week was very interesting —I went to Washington with my family to the Inauguration. I was very nervous to be away from my own kitchen with my own food and my own food plans. I tried hard not to be too concerned about the weekend, but I must admit that my mind was really churning with anxiety about not being in control of my options. However, my good planning and snack packing kept me right on course with Joy's plan and I felt very triumphant as we were driving home. I think that any situation is manageable if you plan for it. Even if you have a fancy party to attend, put some carrot sticks and pepper strips in your evening bag and enjoy being out with your friends. When you shift your focus from the food to the environment and socializing then you can really be a winner in any situation.
Can we do this? YES WE CAN!!!!!
