We had a great time with my husband's family yesterday. We went to graduation in the morning and had a really nice lunch with the family. We also had dinner at his parent's, his mom had made gazpacho, it was so yummy - tomatoes, celery, cucumbers, peppers... I think I did okay for the day - I only had a small amount of homemade ice cream (i just couldn't pass it up) and I passed on the cake. There was also homemade salsas which were so good, and healthy, the only problem was the tostitos I ate with them!

Today we don't have many plans, so I'm think I won't have any problems with the diet. Also, we're planning on working on our yard, so I should get some good exercise in.

I'm almost a week into the diet and it's going great so far. I definitely need to get more exercise in, this week was pretty busy. My goal is to get at least 3 days in this week, but I'm aiming for 4.
