Today was R's 6th birthday party. It was a Bounce Party, which means controlled chaos. It went very well, just a lot of children flying (literally) in nearly every direction. I was almost too busy to think about food -- in fact I actually forgot my meal replacements in the car, and my husband was kind enough to go and grab them for me. I honestly didn't feel like I was missing out on the pizza, ice cream cake, or muffins. I was busy, and I was good.
Back at the house, a few close friends & family came back to the house. My mother prepared a huge spread of deli cold-cuts, salad, potato/macaroni/cole-slaw salads, eggs, cheese, etc. -- and of course, fresh bread and rolls from the local bakery. I made myself a salad with a little grilled chicken, some hard boiled egg whites, and had a few slices of low-fat swiss cheese. This was lunch, and I don't usually do my Lean/Green for lunch, but it felt right.
I just had my last meal replacement, and I still feel pretty good. This was a good day, health wise.
There are still dying embers of the drama that flared up. They really bothered me and made me feel crummy. I'm having a hard time letting these things roll off my back. But at least they are not rolling into the refrigerator :)
