I'm Back!

Thursday, July 05, 2012

From a 3-state trip, in which I had to pack for 3 different activities. Went to see my daughter's family (5 grandkids!), to a crazy quilt retreat, and spent time on both ends of the trip with my husband where he's working.

Came back 3 lbs. heavier, 2 of which are gone already. Not a bad thing, but with all the walking I did I thought maybe I'd lose some. No access to a scale makes it hard to track.

I managed to check in to SP every day, but didn't track any food, another contributor to weight gain. Notice I'm not mentioning the desserts along the way: not only my weakness, but always a contributor to weight gain for me. Proud moment? When my son in law bought the whole family tacos at 10 p.m., and I didn't eat any. I was hungry, too... but didn't need those tacos.

Hope everyone enjoyed the Fourth, and are hitting the trails before the heat comes on!

    I think you did a great job! Travel always means fluid retention for me no matter how careful I am to drink water. I don't eat my own cooking when I'm traveling and that means I'm eating a lot more sodium than normal. I'm glad you had a good trip and you should be proud of not eating those tacos!

Glad to see you back!

    Trips are fun, but it sure is hard to lose weight while on them. I don't think I could have resisted tacos at 10pm when I was hungry, unless they had hamburger on them, I could resist then. Glad you're back. It's too hot to walk outside here so I'll do it in the gym.
