Had a most wonderful time on our foliage train ride yesterday. Here is a pic taken on the train (it only went about 15 MPH tops, so photos were easy).
Spent a couple hours in a small town, ate at a local cafe and strolled the shops. Then took the train back. So lovely.
Then we went down to my sister’s house for my niece’s birthday. I really have trouble at her house for some reason. I proceeded to eat a bunch of chips, 2 cupcakes, a slice of fruit custard pie and sundry pieces of fruit. Ugh. We didn’t even go out to dinner for our anniversary because we were both so full! Oh well, there is always a chance to start over, right?
So, today I was as good as gold. I am sure I will be paying for Sunday’s eating when I weigh in on Wed.
Hello. I am a university professor who is conducting research on WEIGHT LOSS BLOGGERS AND THE ROLE BLOGGING HAS PLAYED IN THE BLOGGER’S WEIGHT LOSS.
As you may be aware, a lot of research has been done over the years on weight loss but very little has been done on blogging and weight loss. I hope you will help me remedy this.
I have chosen you as a potential research participant because you have a weight loss blog, have a weight loss goal of 100 pounds or more, and have been blogging for at least three months.
If you choose to participate in this study, you will be asked to complete a survey that I will email you. Your answers will be completely confidential and I will use a pseudonym of your choice in the final study.
I have an information sheet about the study I would be happy to share with you. Please email me at aldridga@nsuok.edu if you would like to take a look at it.
Thank you for your time and best of luck to you on your weight loss journey.
Sincerely,
Amy Aldridge Sanford, PhD

That’s a nice picture. We usually take a drive in the autumn to admire the scenery, but the train is a much better idea.
Yeah, I expect to be paying for the “birthday” eating that I did too. Oh well, that’s life, right?
