survival after a 4 day trip

I just came back from 4 days in Washington DC for my first ever business trip for a new job I will be starting in July.  They had food and drinks everywhere!  I tried to just follow the "rules" but I wasn't perfect.  Had a few drinks  (I think 4 to be exact which is more than I have had all year I think!) a few bites of desserts here and there.  I couldn't drink my water everyday because I would have to get up at the meetings to go to BR too much...and I just couldn't do that.  I also brought my gym clothes to work out in the hotel gym but never did that.  There literally wasn't a free second in the day(do we get points for good intentions??) ....and so I was afraid of that scale this am.  NOTHING CHANGED!!   Exactly the same....so I think the moral of the story is when we can't be perfect...just be as good as you can!..and then right back on program!!  Just wanted to share...I didn't have my computer either so it is nice to catch up again!..missed that!

nice going. yes, there is life after getting to wls goal and it can be fairly normal. You were probably rushing around being active and burned off those drinks and desserts. This stuff is no big deal on a vacation or special event. Just gotta watch the everyday habits. So glad you found balance and the trip went well.  Diane
