Office holiday party yesterday, and I ate way too much and not healthy food. I was on the party committee and wound up making the vat of mac and cheese. Wow. Once you make mac and cheese from scratch and not from a box and see what really goes into the stuff, you may never want to put it in your body again. Nevertheless, I did. 😂

As my own contribution to the potluck, I brought vegan Swedish meatballs. They were a hit! Very few of them left. I stuck a sign on them that they were vegan, but people still went for them.

I fully expect to record a gain on Sunday on my weekly check-in. My current 7-day average is back above 132, which is uncomfortably high for me. So breakfast is back to my go-to oatmeal, soymilk, chia, flax, and fruit combo. I have some silken tofu left over from my vegan cottage cheese experiment when I was having so much trouble with the tooth that I'll mix in for a little extra protein.

Speaking of the tooth, it's considerably better. Got to the dentist Monday and it turned out to be nothing worse than a high spot that they were able to fix.

Likely will have an interview with a TV reporter today. Ugh. My replacement only started Monday and has absolutely no clue what's going on with the project, so it's not like I can foist it off on her. Truly hoping this is my last go-round as a spokesperson.

Happy Wednesday, everyone! 😃

Most people in my area are not opposed to vegan as long as it tastes good and is healthy. I would definitely have tried them. I'm curious about things like that. I am actually shy and dread being in the spotlight though I have had to be many times as a student and for my job. I was a soloist at both church and in chorus and the lead in 2 school plays, one an operetta. I had to once give a speech to over 100 people on a very embarrassing subject. I was one of 3 students on a local weekly radio program. I was a photographer's assistant for the local newspaper and we had to meet important people all the time like senators, governors, movie stars, singers, athletes. So I REALLY feel for you. I hope you are one of the people who don't have stage fright like me. I covered it well because I was always over-prepared and knew what I was going to say.
