As our Standards Director Steve reminded me this morning, “Any good marketer (and blogger) will emphasize the product is only part of a reduced-calorie, increased-exercise program for real weight loss.” So, I thought I would mention what I had been eating and doing for exercise. I won’t bore you with a detailed menu but I have been trying to eat nutrient dense/calorie light foods (I know, I know, not the cake). For instance today I had mixed berries and fat free plain yogurt for breakfast, a falafel salad for lunch and I plan on having grilled chicken and lots of veggies for dinner. I always, always have wine with dinner. I will cut back on my food intake, but I will never, ever give up my wine. As far as exercise I’m pretty much a three to four times a week girl either yoga or a hike during the week and skiing or a long bike ride on the weekend.

Oh, and I did get on the scale this morning…..down two pounds, cake and all!
