after-Thanksgiving weigh-in

Cliff had to get through a Thanksgiving dinner at work on his own, and he was rather proud of himself.  He only had one plateful of food, not piled high, and one dessert... pineapple pie.

Then we ate an early Thanksgiving dinner at our daughter's on Saturday, and he did the same there.

Yesterday, on the dreaded too-much-food day, we escaped on the motorcycle.  We had a light picnic lunch:  tuna salad sandwich, carrot sticks, and those 100-calorie Chips Ohoy bags apiece.

For supper we each had a cheeseburger and small piece of Oreo dessert and later snacked on some cheese.

Cliff got on the scales this morning and yelled out, "These scales must be having a fit; something's wrong."

He weighed 211... that's 2 1/2 pounds less than he's weighed before on this journey to fitness.  He got on and off the scales several times, to make sure it wasn't a fluke.

He gives me all the credit, but I say he should get at least half.

Are those 100 Calorie packs good tasting?  I think about buying them but then don't want to waste the money if they're not....
