Polite Paradise

I just finished Daria. I really missed that show. I was thrilled to see it on Hulu. Now, I'm working my way through Better Call Saul.

I was doing fantastic this week and it all fell apart yesterday.  I had a lymph node biopsied and was stressed and mildly depressed so I dealt with it by eating half a package of double chocolate cookies and then my husband made nachos for dinner.  I weigh in tomorrow morning.  Hoping if I stay on track today the damage wont be too bad.

Yikes! ((Kimmers))

A bit scared to weigh myself tomorrow (I don't own a scale so only weigh at the gym.) I was doing really well this week until my partner surprised me with going out to dinner last night... can't turn down tiramisu so I had dessert too! Oh well... worth it.

Don't be scared. You'll know the truth, and you can go on from there.

Yesterday, I had a client show up unannounced. I didn't have anything pressing going on at the time so I worked her in. I told her to have a seat in the lobby while I prepped her things. When I came back to get her, she was really huffy. We finished up our transaction, and she finally let me have it. How dare I keep her waiting so long!  I am so rude! I patiently waited for her to finish her tirade. Then I told her that I usually don't take walk in clients because of the amount of prep work necessary. I made an exception because for her because I wanted to make sure she was taken care of as soon as possible. Next time, she can make an appointment.

I'm reading Prairie Fires: The American Dreams of Laura Ingalls Wilder. She was my favourite author as a kid, and I'm really enjoying this deeper and less sanitized account of her life. Rose Wilder Lane is the absolute worst though.

Also reading The Truth About the Harry Quebert Affair. Good and funny!

I read that a few months ago.  There was lots of baggage in the Ingalls/Wilder family.

I saw the suggestion of two teaspoons of fat free sugar free pudding instant powder mixed with a carton of FF Plain greek yogurt. I haven't tried it myself, but I'm going to do it this weekend. I found a product called chilly cow. I tried the vanilla graham, and it had good flavor & texture. It has a very similar mouth feel to ice cream.

I have been going to a local WW meeting for the past few weeks. Another woman (AW) joined the same day that I did. AW really enjoys going to the meetings, and she loves talking. She has something to add to nearly everything the group leader says. It's a constant distraction that seems to throw the group leader off of his agenda. I know I'm not the only one who has noticed how often AW inserts herself into the meeting; the group of women that sit behind me snicker whenever AW opens her mouth.

Being the new member, I feel awkward complaining about another member. OTOH This is a service that I pay for, and I want to hear the group leader talk about the topic of the week. AW is not a weight loss expert, and most of her comments are completely unnecessary.
I will add that other people share information during the meeting. Occasional sharing is great. I like learning new tricks and tips.

I guess I have a few choices:
I can talk to AW (not the choice I would prefer).
I can talk to the group leader.
I can attend a different meeting.
I can do nothing. The ladies behind me may say something.

What would you do?
