Thanks Patriciakr. I do believe planning is important. I am afraid, though, that I will obsess about the RM. I hope I can just make a decision and then move on with my day.

Eno, truthfully, I don't want to know how many carbs I eat. I am glad you never counted. That makes me feel hopeful.

Today is officially day 2 and I have done well so far. Went to a restaurant for lunch. My family had fries. I really wanted one, but I didn't! I reminded myself that I can make roasted potatoes for dinner that will taste much better!!!
