Good afternoon! I just left weigh in and pretty much stayed the same as last week. I am disappointed… but not surprised. I underestimated what I ate everyday for my fishing weekend and my dad and son’s brithday party and obviously gave myself more credit than what I deserved on my exercise to justify all that I ate. I can’t say i’m disappointed in the results just kind of upset at myself for thinking I had all this down and can do it on my own. I’m still a long long ways away from not journaling what I eat. I’m a grazer and it was easy for me to justify crap I shouldn’t have just because I stayed regular at my exercise. Again I had a three day guys weekend, a double birthday party for a 21 year old, you know what that meant…So I’m ok with basically staying flat.
Now, tomorrow night I leave for Mexico with two couples that are long time friends. We are going to the same place we went to 17 years ago. That was the first time we all left our children with babysitters for an extended period of time. This week we are going to celebrate our 50th birthdays which will all be coming up and our 25th wedding anniversary’s which we all are at least 2-3 years over due. This is also our first trip as empty nesters. Should be fun. This trip will without a doubt determine my future in some form or fashion, good or bad. I know that I won’t lose weight while i’m there, I just need to make sure I exercise, eat right etc. But the most important factor is when I get back will I exercise and journal and re-develop my lifestyle change. I”ve been at this for awhile and have greatly improved on many things BUT when I am gone for 8 days will I get right back to my new and improved habits that i’ve been developing? This is where i’m asking for support from anyone that’s willing to give me any advice. I will be back in touch on March 15th!!
Jason
