Medina and I attended an extremely classy dinner party hosted by our good friends Ben and Kelly (pictured in the center, below) last night. We ate beforehand and brought some diet-friendly mashed potatoes. They had a sweet potato ginger soup and winter mix salad which miraculously fit our restrictions, so we were able to participate in the festivities, if only a little. We don't have much time left on the diet but we remain strong nonetheless. We have been so good about not making any exceptions, even for special events. I'm proud of us both.
