    Sorry. I'm still a bit ashamed of my Vikings this year but I could NEVER [even under penalty of death] root for either of these teams!!!

    I'm sorry, but as a die hard Bears fan... it was the greatest thing in the world to see the Bear's take Brett Favre out!! =)

    And no one was cheering louder than the Packer fans at that moment!

    Thankfully he finally announced for REAL that he's retiring...I was sick of watching that old man hobble around on the field and struggle to get up after the slightest fall :laugh:

    You are doing the right thng. Have a plan. When those wings start smelling too good to resist....have one. You don't have to deprive yourself to be on track. Have a drink, but keep adding diet soda to it and have just enough for the taste. If you like the fruity la la drinks, your in luck! It is so easy to make Margaritta with out using the pre mix sugar junk. Use fresh fruits and some OJ for sweetness. You might find that everyone likes your drink better and you ALL can be healthy and party hardy at the same time!:drinker:

  • Steelers fan here!
    Go Packers ( VS the Bears).

    Steelers fans know a Bear victory means the best they can do is second!!! Go Bears!!!

    Boo! LOL---Actually I don't care who wins the Bears/Packers game.... For some reason my daughter is a Packers fan and we both want a Steelers/Packers Superbowl.

    It's gonna be a STEELERS-BEARS Super Bowl!!! We are a Steelers household, and we are ITCHING to see them vs the Bears!!!
    On the food note - LOTS of fruits and veggies with lo-cal dips. Baked chips and white chicken chili is what we are doing!!!

    When I was on track I enjoyed my 3 chicken wings, loads of veggies, 3 tbls of hummus, and crunchy homemade pita chips I walked aroudn with the same plate and 3 saucy chicken wings for hours. No one knew or cared if it was my 3rd or 10th.

    This was a big revelation to me: the truth is, nobody else is going to give a tiddilyflip about what you're eating--or not.

    I used to be so paranoid about big public food things. . . until I realized that nobody was paying any attention to me. And why should they? And the more I started paying attention to what other people ate (particularly my skinny friends. . .) I realized THEY weren't really eating much--or were making healthy choices-- at these kinds of things. DUH. I had just been so focused on what was on MY plate that I hadn't noticed what was (and wasn't) on theirs. And while we're on the subject, nobody's gonna keep a tally on your beer glass, either (unless, of course, you start making an idiot out of yourself . . .)


    And for the game, I'll be munching on veggies and humus, enjoying some all-veggie chili, and drinking diet root beer and iced green tea out of my favorite beer stein.

    Just make sure that you have fresh cut veggies and something to dip, plain yogurt with seasoning, hummas, cottage cheese with seasoning, yogurt with fresh fruit slices works good too. Also, make sure you have good beverages because if you can keep full with drinks the less you eat but can still enjoy. I also like to put out pistachios and stuff in the shell, because I have to un shell them before I eat them so it takes longer. Laughing cow spreadable cheeses and Special K crackers are a godsend for calories too. have fun! I will be thinking about you as I cheer from my couch! I'm an NFC girl, but a Seahwaks girl at heart!

    Excuse me while I go vomit. I do NOT need to see them get yet another SB ring. VOMIT! I'd rather see anyone (except the eagles) there! :)

    Thanks for the great ideas! I love those Special K crackers! I am doing the crystal light with vodka, opted for chili with Jeni 0 turkey, I bought some pulled chicken, humus and low fat/calorie pita chips, apples, carrots and low cal/fat ranch. CAN'T WAIT!! Thanks again for the tips

    Gotta tell a story here.

    I was 18 and going on my first flight to another city. For a boy, of course :laugh:

    I am from South Florida and I had met the sweetest guy from Pittsburgh. So he plans on a Friday night movie down on the knoll (sp) in front of the college. I had never been outside of the Miami area and was not used to strangers flopping down on the blanket, offering a Strohs.

    I also was not used to being flicked on the back of the head with a "Fish suck" and LOL....all in good fun. I had NO idea what the hell they were talking about!!!! One kid even lay a fish in front of me that Jack (my friend) laughingly picked up and took to the trash......

    So all of the sudden the film starts up and a ROAR comes over the crowd........on the screen I see the Black and Gold crushing the Orange and Teal on the HUGE screen..............they had outtakes of all the good stuff (of course none of our good moves were included)

    Jack says "THAT is what everyone is teasing you about!! The Pittys love their Steelers!!!"

    That is one of the funnest times I have ever had. The people of Pittsburgh were warm and welcoming and besides the friendly jiving about a sport I had no idea about, I was ready to move there!!

    Unfortunately Jack had a new girlfriend................and she liked football:sad: :sad:


    :laugh: :laugh:
