Greetings from Alabama

We have been at our inlaws for a few days and today we're on our way down to Navarre Beach, Florida to stay for the rest of the week...yeehaw!

The boys have been super and we have had a great time with all of Keith's brothers and his sister and their families joining us. There have been 18 (19 including my sister-in-law's little boy on the way!) so it's definitely been a little nuts around here!

The biggest challenge for me has been sticking to the Weight Watchers Core Plan so far! Walking through this house past Mamaw's famous moist homemade pound cake, jars of cookies and a vat of scrumptious homemade mac 'n cheese has almost driven me to the brink of "life-change" disaster. Grilled hamburgers, potato salad, potato chips...ah, the list goes on and on. My mother-in-law is a fantastic cook so I knew it would be my biggest challenge yet but so far I'm hanging in there. In fact, every time I make a conscious choice not to eat something that I'm craving, I feel a little stronger and a little more committed to my goal.

That's something I haven't felt in a long time.

Happy Memorial Day to all those who have served our country. I hope you all have a wonderful week!
