Vacation Results...



I had a great vacation in Florida for close to 2 weeks. I was worried that I had stayed the same weight or even gained a few pounds. I tried to eat well but it was a vacation so I shared an occasional dessert with the family. But overall I tried to eat well with salads, fruits, grilled meats. I limited snacking and drank a lot of water. My exersize was a lot of walking.

I am happy to say that my weight this morning was down 3 pounds from my last weigh in! I'm so happy and proud of myself for losing weight while on vacation! Right before vacation I joined Weight Watchers and their numbers say I'm down 4 pounds but I'm going to stick with the weigh in's from my scale for this blog, even though I like the Weight Watchers loss better! ;-)

I'm so happy to be over that 25 pound mark! It also makes my New Project #46. It's starting to feel manageable and possible to achieve my goal.

Simple Update

Once again I haven't done well keeping my blog up-to-date. I have at least kept up with my diet and exercise. I've enjoyed my Team Weight Loss group. I haven't had the weight loss I hoped for but I learned a lot, making it worth the time, money and effort. I might even try the class again in the fall.

I've been working out on average 6 times a week. That has helped my mood, attitude and self-esteem.

I did fluctuate with my weight a little over the last 2 months thanks to some medication I was taking. I have since taken all of that weight back off again.

I also reached a weight I haven't seen since my mom passed away in late 2005. I hate saying it but I can't hide from the number, I am finally below 200. It's hard to admit I was ever over that but of course I know it's obvious to everyone. Thankfully I no longer am and I won't be ever again! So my latest weigh-in this past Friday put me down -22.3lbs, bringing my
New Project # to 49. I am happy with those results.

Now my next task will be to hang onto that weight loss with a 2 week Disney vacation this month. I'm ready with planning in hand!
