Hi La Shunda... I've been a turtle forever!

It's hard to stay on plan when it seems like it's not doing anything for you. Even if the scale and tape measure aren't moving, we all have to remember the OTHER benefits of LC.

I have clear skin, stronger nails, stronger hair, more energy...

Speaking of cheating- intentional or otherwise..... I have a tough family situation coming up in two weeks. My dad and step mom are coming to visit (haven't seen them for 3 years, for many reasons). They are not staying with me (small mercy!!). They are TOTALLY and VOCALLY against LC and have no hesitation in telling me loudly and in public what they think (think of two obese people with me in a restaurant and them "correcting" my food order telling the wait staff that I have food issues or an eating disorder).

I have to be nice because they are coming down for my DD's grad - but I need to figure out a way to avoid any situations which will involve food.

I have purposely not arranged any time off work while they are here - although I could do so if I feel inclined later.

Wish me luck....

Julie
