potlucks are evil

All it takes is one day of "free food" and healthy eating goes out the window.

Dragged myself out of bed at 6:30 and managed to fumble the cappuccino maker on for my latte. Quick banana-bran-cranberry puck for breakfast.

Treats at the training class, so of course I took one of those giant cakey muffins. Ate the top and tossed the rest. Got hungry again before lunch though (sugar spike and plunge, no doubt) and snuck the last cheese scone.

Not hungry for lunch, and feeling guilty about all the empty calories, I waited 'til the afternoon coffee break to have half a banana and half an apple, topped with yogurt, raisins and almonds.

That kept me going for the rest of the afternoon, as I planned out my shopping list for the clothing swap and Father's Day dinner while half-listening to the Finance training.

Stopped at Costco to pick up a few things, and tried a generous sample of mozzarella, and a piece of M&M cookie.

At Cheryl's, all went out the window. Kim brought sushi, so I had a few rolls - california, dynamite, tempura. A few crackers with cream cheese and jalapeno jelly, and a few with peppered goat's cheese; a few tortilla chips (the hummus was off), some (but not nearly enough) edamame and radishes, lots of bread and hot crab dip.

After the swap, Judy and I did round two on the sushi and crab dip, and I finished the night with 3 chocolate chip cookies.

All washed down with cranberry and soda. Sugary, but held off on the wine - and still had a great fun time.
