    As long as it's the exception, not the rule you can't beat yourself up over it.

Glad you could enjoy the fellowship.

    Glad you had a good time. Sometimes life gets in the way and we'll over eat; no biggie. Life goes on.

    What is potluck? I've heard other people talking about it and I've never known what it is, can you tell me?

  Great, don't worry about it! I think Sunday's should be the day you are not so strict with your plan! If you follow your plan 6 days a week, I think one day is not going to set you back ! emoticon
