Yikes, people! I am in serious danger of starting back at square one! NOOOOO!!!!! This cannot happen, so I must take control. Sedona was AMAZING. (Check out my other blog on the sidebar if you want to read about it.) We walked and hiked a lot, and we also ate a lot. I think I gained three pounds.
SO, I have decided on a new challenge. This one is more short term - 10 pounds in 10 weeks. What do you think? Part of this challenge is to stay within my points limit when I am away. WOW. That will definitely be a challenge. I am going to start this challenge next Friday (to give me a chance to regain some ground after this last trip), and it will end on July 26th. Ooooo, that's my brother's birthday... Anyway, I do have a few trips in that time period: Lauren's college orientation in Boston June 10-11, Williamsburg with the kids June 24-27, New Hampshire with the family July 4-7, and Palmyra (to finally see the pageant again) with a Niagara Falls bonus July 19-21. Four trips in ten weeks. If I take a break for each of those trips, I could seriously gain back everything I lose. The only way to do it is to stick with the plan the entire 10 weeks. Instead of taking days off, I will only splurge on a meal or two when we are away. That should work out better.
Hmmm ... Can I lose three pounds by next Friday so that I start this new challenge with my original 7 pounds already lost??? Hahahaha!!!! I will try. :)
I did exercise this morning!
p.s. Why do people always spell lose as loose? Your pants are loose (if you are too skinny for them. which i am not. but that is beside the point.). And you want lose weight. Is that so hard? These are the things that drive me crazy!
From 8/15/14 to now -

I always have to think about loose and lose. I know that loose is loose, I try it out and know which one to write. It takes thought. Your plan sounds good. You can do well if you only splurge one meal a day, but you have to plan some things to eat that are available for the other meals so you can be successful! You're a great planner - so prepare now! Your trips all sound so great! I'm so glad that you blog and I can see what you are doing! Thanks!
I can't splurge on one meal a day! Just a meal or two for the trip.
