So far increasing my carbs to 50 has not effected my weight loss! Woo-hoo!!! I do think keeping them at 20 net is good for appetite control in the beginning, but for me, doing it for so many years, this 50 is going good just so I can add more variety to my meals! I'm actually just adding more vegetables and some berries...so nothing crazy.

Feeling good! Almost out of the 170s!

I told my old job I could work some catering events for extra exercise and to get out of the house and they immediately scheduled me to work Friday-Sunday...OY!!! And I have to wear a tux for 2/3 of the days so that's nuts...when I'm busy I'm happier and look to food less for entertainment and comfort so working a lot is a huge help to me! Espiecally on the weekend when it's the time I overeat.

Feeling excited :)

Oh...and my oral exam for the job is TUESDAY! Oy! Will be freaking out about that..but thinking working these catering events will give me more practice socializing and give me a confidence boost right before the big day!

Another tid bit of info...a owner of a business by my work, that's a lawyer, asked me out to lunch today...pretty cool :)

Wow! You have so many good things coming your way, Sharon, and you deserve them all. And I know what you mean about overeating on the weekends. That’s when it’s hardest for me because my husband and I usually did stuff that involved eating. Hard habits to break, but we’re getting there—and you are, too! 😊🎈

Sharon, it sounds like you've turned a corner on the difficulties you were having a few weeks ago. Marvelous! Try not to fret over the oral exam. Prepare well by getting a good night's sleep (if you can!) the night before and eat well in the days and hours leading up to the exam. Probably, the "examiners" will be looking to see how well your personality and personal style fits their needs. So, just be yourself! You wouldn't have gotten this far in the process without meeting their first set of criteria, whatever they are. As far as going out to lunch with one of your employers, be sure to keep it totally professional and tell him in unmistakable terms -- by your behavior, posture, and words -- that you consider it a "professional lunch." For example, the *only* "physical contact" that cannot be misinterpreted is a simple, firm handshake. "Hugs"? NO!
