Week 5, Day 1, Diet with Dianna

HAPPY 4TH OF JULY! God Bless the U.S.A.
Most of us had the day off, today. My daughter had to work the morning shift, but got home early in the afternoon. July 4th is a great day, traditionally, to barbecue. Chicken, Hamburgers, and Kielbasa Sausage.
Yummy good food!. My parents bought the meat and we provided the side dishes and my hubby cooked it all on the grill! (It was at least 98 degrees outside by lunch time).
We all ate well, played games...indoors of course...and went swimming later in the afternoon. We had a blast! I really enjoyed this day.

REVELATION KNOWLEDGE:
I learned that I can participate in a holiday event without over indulging on food! I ate well, made good choices, and enjoyed the day with my focus on family...not the food!
I eat to live, not live to eat.
