One main thing I learned over the weekend was that if one day is bad, you just make it up the next day (e. g. see the Sodium levels)

I also learned that working out a nice hotel can be a lot of fun.

Oh and that I can still cut a rug.

Amazing stats, Jes. Congratulations!

Welcome back, Jes. Yes. I often think while at a hotel that it would be really nice just to stay there (near the pool and the spa) for a few years. Then I have to check-out.

Hang in there, Mac, I'm having a little bad time of it this week too.

Joe(mostly because I've been crazy) Nation

Thanks! I'm starting to like hotels again. I used to be a Road Warrior and absolutely hated them. Then again, the insurance company used to send me to some pretty dumpy places.

And yeah, the stats. I knew I was being careful but man! I recall when I was on Weight Watchers many years ago I was the only person in my group who lost on Thanksgiving. I think I tend to really step it up (e. g. kinda overdo it on the vigilance) for things like this, then for regular times, not so much. Hmm.

That sounds dreadful. Does it have a strong cumin smell? (I think Im on record as being the only person who cannot stand cumin)

Yes, that's me exactly. I'm much more vigilant when I'm away from home. Maybe I should go on a round the world cruise!

I think cumin cheese sounds wonderful. But I never met a cheese I didn't like.
