And Happy Winter Solstice...
~-~-~-~
Thank you Dear Readers/Commenters, for the warm and accepting reception you gave my post of yesterday. Thank you very much. At another time, it would not necessarily have gotten only "hugs," or gently been ignored. ,-) It might have gotten some kind-of-nasty-threats-disguised-as-loving-caring.

And also thank you for sharing with me, your tales of hearing more "Merry Christmas" wishes, ring out in our Dear Land. I decided to change "Yes Virginia, there is a Santa Claus" into; "Yes Virginia, there is a back-lash against silly "Politically Correct Speech," going on in our Beloved Country. And isn't that wonnnnnnnderful?!?!?!

And now, back to "The Yumminess Of The Season", and how we are going to *survive* them! -giggggggles- Had another good yearly doc appointment yesterday, but the weigh-in looked *disturbing.* -pout- Looked like I had put-on-some-Mrs.-Santa-padding. So I decided to weight myself in the morning, more regularly. And to be more careful of "How-Much I eat", even of G/F and low Sat Fat treats, and get back on my treadmill.

Well, low and behold! This morning! First thing on my own scale! I was the same old number. YES, it is 30 pounds more than I'd like, but it was the same old consistent number that it's been for a long time. While yesterday's appointment weigh-in was mid afternoon and fully dressed. Wheeeeeeew...
~-~-~-~
Also YES, I am sticking to my good resolutions of last evening though!!! :-) I know what I am going to make-for-myself, so I won't be thinking *Oh-Pooooor-Me,* when everyone else is eating the usual Christmas candy/cookies. :-) It pays to plan ahead. :-)

Oh good. I'm glad that there were no surprises like the ones you had imagined. You are doing very well! And in that case, Merry On!
I am with you! My scales are consistent even though they are 20 pounds MORE than I weighed long ago.
I have done pretty well this season. My down fall is the SALT!!! How I LOVE it!!
You go girl!!! You should be proud as punch.
Heck, I just eat the piece of fudge and carry in a little more firewood. I wear my Hubby's ten pound barn boots to chore in. Then there's the chansin' and runnin' from the wild~eyed cattle...I figure I don't need no stinkin' gym! Heeehehehe!!!!
God bless you sweet one and have yourself a very bright and beautiful Christmas surrounded by the ones you hold near and dear.
MERRY CHRISTMAS YA'LL!!! :o)
Congratulations! This is always a challenging time of year for eating healthy! Love all your Christmas goodies!
Merry Christmas!
And why is it the doctor's office never even lets you take off your shoes? Oy.
Those treats look so good. Last night someone in my building was doing some Christmas baking and that heavenly smell was drifting into my window. Really made me want to do some baking since I now have a better kitchen, but there's no time this year. Looks like we'll be store bought once again.

Usually i do very good about not eating too many goodies, for some reason i'm not doing so good this year.
I'll just have to get in a few extra walks!!
I don't think I'll be back before Christmas so please have a very Happy Christmas and indulge!!!
(my scales remain fifty pounds over desired weight!!)

Wow, loaded right up tonight! Glad you had a good doctor's visit. We won't discuss the weight part, okay? Hope you and your family has a wonderful Christmas. May it be Merry!
Awwwwwwwww, heck. You picked the wrong time to be good. But, Santa will be proud of your stamina and will power. But but.....missing out on all the goodies? It can't wait 'til next week? Heck I wish I could say I was in need of losing 30 ---it'd be nice, but I just know my weight gain is because of the heart meds I'm on. And age....LOL. Gotta put the blame somewhere.
Love all your photo shares today.
Happy Christmas and Merry New Year.
My Friday Fragments
I just said yesterday to hubby, i am HOLDING on my weight and that is always a good thing during Holidays... hope your photos are free from calories.
