i seriously LOVE this diet

i have had a pretty great last couple of days.

on thursday, my office threw a surprise baby shower for one of my co-workers. she was totally surprised and on the verge of tears on several occasions. granted she's hormonal, but it was still great to see how thankful and happy she was! plus we had yummy goodies. we catered from our fave mediterranean restaurant and we got her favorite cake: tres leches! any diet that lets me eat my fill of lamb gyros, cake and baklava (2 pieces!) is my kind of diet.

avoiding the leftovers the next day was very hard. but doable. i had a little lamb (haha) the next day but loaded up on the veggies more. and had no. more. sweets. i was very cognizant of stepping up the veggie intake on friday so i would keep my calories down yet wouldn't feel hungry. friday i also got in 2 walks: one at lunch and one after work while the sun was still out.

saturday brought sunny skies and temps near 70! it would have been a crime not to go hiking. so we did! we spent about an hour and a half at skyline park:








then we had lunch at one of patrick's fave spots in downtown napa. i had caesar salad and calamari, which i have been craving for weeks for whatever reason. we spent the rest of the afternoon checking out tyler florence's new store and morimoto's restaurant.

today brings another sunny day! i weighed myself this morning, like i do every morning and the scale is being good to me. i'm considering walking the mile to my pharmacy to pick up my rx and get some exercise. i'm also making guacamole today! hopefully all of it won't get eaten at the superbowl party today so i can have some during the week too! i hope y'all have a great sunday!
