Well I'm back from vacation, and I'm up.  I'm not too worried about the weight gain, not bad for being on vacation.  What does concern me is how easily I fall back into bad habits.  I spent the first 3 days just eating constantly!  Plus, I'm able to eat more "normal" amounts, so the non stop grazing will get me in trouble.  I had a stern talk with myself and eventually got myself under control, but this experience made me realize that we all have to stay vigilant.

This is SO true.  I am quite uncomfortable with my mental state (as I reflect back) when I'm on vacation.  I revert right back to "eat everything in sight" mode.  It's frightening as I can be so disciplined at home.  And, the amounts are much more significant--probably because it's all carby food!

As long as we can talk to ourselves and work through the lapses or challenges, I think we can tackle this thing.  But, I know that I will HAVE TO stay on top of my weight every day for the rest of my life.  

Thank goodness for our friends here who are in the same boat!

I'm one pound below the range I want. I know it will fluctuate. I eat whatever the heck I want and always have from day one, that was part of my personal plan. My metabolism is definitely different than it was and that's a good thing. This weekend I will be spending it with someone new in my life and he is a very good cook and has dishes lined up to serve me, lol. Maybe I'll gain a pound hopefully!

134 lbs. this AM.  Holding my own. 

Still where I need to be...

128 and holding!

104.8 today.  Still under the 105 boundary I set for myself.  I had a bad eating day yesterday due to stress eating.  I don't normally eat for emotional reasons, but yesterday was different.  I think I just have a little too much 'on my plate" so to speak lately.  I could really use a vacation to destress.

Still holding at 185.  I need to shed this extra vacation weight, but this week has defintely not been ideal.  MUCHO stress at work, and I'm planning that precious birthday party.  Be glad when this weekend is over so I can have some normalcy.  I've been somewhat good, but not as diligent as I usually am.

Have a good weekend, all!

Random Thoughts: 
-  Being the excatholic that I am for Lent I have given up sweets and carbs and so far so good.  Thank God my body has released the bloat I had from my Mammoth trip.  Now I'm taking it 1 meal, 1lbs at a time.
