Beware Vacations!~

Hey folks - I sure hope you are all still losers I have been in Mobile, Alabama for a little while now (and will be for awhile longer) and I can say from first hand experience that vacations are dangerous! I can also now say for sure I do not dump Last night I had 1/2 of a brownie and today I had a dognut! (Krispy Kreme even!). I have made a vow to stop that crap right NOW and return to the good habits I have worked on. I just wanted to say that when you get out of your comfort zone of your own home and routines, that you can be more tempted then normal to indulge. Like I did. Anyway, I will be hiding out in the basement here this weekend as hurricane Dennis plows through here. Be safe and choose food wisely as I have not these last few days lol. Kia

Kia--thanks for the warning! I'll be going on a mini vacation next week and I will definately watch out for temptations! As far as the brownie and doughnut...well...we all make mistakes, at least you have learned- and made a vow to stick to your good habits. I personally am terrified of eating sugary things. I am afraid that... 1. I'll dump 2. I won't I am afraid to find out that I might not dump, because I'm afraid it will awaken old habits in me. For now that fear is keeping me away from the no-no's...I hope that continues. Sheila

I just got back from Florida and was surprised to see I gained 2 lbs. I walked for miles the whole week. I didn't think I was eating more but I'm sure I was since my family ate breakfast,lunch,dinner and snack with out missing a beat. I still ate my small portions and drank but I am now home and back on track. Tomorrow I start work and I think that will put me back in the right thinking mode. Stay safe.

I can so relate to this. I was on vacation for a week and gained 2 lbs. I was even walking for miles each day. I thought I would come back and have lost weight. . I was so disappointed. I watched what I ate for the most part. I also found out that I don't dump on sugar , and also found out that I really get cleaned out quickly on reg. coffee. I have been on a platau for weeks now, so I plan on going back on a liquid diet for several to get back on track. Good luck to all, Mary
