Weigh in Nerves

I'm really nervous about tomorrow.  I'm going to the 9am weigh in and then heading to our family reunion.

First, I played hooky today.  We generally cut out of work around before a holiday.  Because of everything go on and my birthday yesterday my friend and I went whale watching today.  I had saved my extra points plus to go out to lunch.  We went for seafood afterwords.  I had a wonderful crab melt. 

One of my downfalls is salt water taffy - peppermint flavor.  Nothing fancy, but so yummy.  Of course one of the only places you can get taffy separated by flavor is at fisherman's wharf.  Needless to say, that's what I had for dinner. 

At least I earned activity points today!  I stood a lot on the boat.  We saw lots of sea lions, harbor seals, pelicans, other birds, porpoises, and a few humpback whales.  It was a great day.  The water is so relaxing.  I'm so glad I don't get motion sickness!  The only downside was that my face is really sunburned!

I'm not only worried about tomorrow's weigh in, but its our family reunion.  It started out as a surprise 50th anniversary party for my parents, but with all the drama over the summer its really a reunion with a cake and champagne toast for the anniversay.  I'm excited to see my cousins that I haven't seen in several years.  I'm not so excited about seeing some other family members.  My uncle has turned into an anal planner this week even though we worked through the details weeks ago.  My brother got engaged over the 4th of July - to someone no one has met.  Mom says she's nice, but the last wife didn't turn out so well. Overall, I just don't want the drama.  I plan on hanging out with my cousins and my other uncle.  If I have to leave early for my own sanity, then that's what I will do.

If I get home early, my 80 year old neighbor is having a birthday party for her cat.  She turns 2.  Don't you know I'm excited!

What do you do when you when you know there is a stressful situation and stress eating is an issue?

Anyway, I just hope I lose a few pounds when I weigh in.  Next, I hope I survive the day!!!  Wish my luck!
