Another 3.2 lbs of vacation gain gone today!! I would love to see that kind of loss every day!! LOL!! Ah ... fantasy land is such a fun place to live!
We are in a warm weather pattern here. Fortunately it has been cooling off at night because we do not have A/C. I try to capture the cool air into the house in the morning so it isn't too unbearable when we get home from work. If we have too many hot days in a row it doesn't work so well. But the warm weather is always short-lived and having taken off these pounds has made the warm weather much more bearable. That is a definite bonus.
I have a couple of appointments this morning and then I will see how much energy I have for paperwork. I may take off a bit early, just depends on how motivated and energetic I am feeling. Nothing special planned for this weekend but you never know what may present itself!
Journey wise I have made a conscious effort this week to NOT feel badly about the spike. Overall I am doing well with that task. I have successfully had three little trips since May ... each with a gain and then subsequent loss. Additionally, we've gone out several times, for dinner, dancing, meeting with friends and still I am under 190. I'm sure this is some kind of record for me. While I still feel the temptation to return to old patterns of eating I have not given in to those temptations. I occasionally get bummed by the numbers. Not so much the spikes per se but simply the fact that I have not reached my "goal." I am reminded though that I am "in the range" and that this journey does not end when I reach the "goal." It is an adjustment to see myself as "there" rather than "not there." The evil woman still tempts me with negative thoughts but her voice is growing dimmer. This is practice. EVERYDAY. Process not product. The only thing predictable in life is change. There is no hurry. So on I go. Ever mindful of the path, speeding up and slowing down as I travel along it, keeping the goal in mind while enjoying the journey. Deep breath!! Have a wonderful day, full of mindfulness, enjoyment, appreciation, and healthy, kind choices ... both for physical and emotional nourishment!!

Yay for another impressive loss! Way to beat that vacation spike back into submission! I love reading your thoughts on the journey. They help me with keeping my head in the right place, too. Reading your journal is like finding a beautiful, sweet-smelling rose!

Amy you are so sweet!! I think I shall feel rose-like today!! My journal writing is definitely therapy for myself!! I figure if I think it and write it perhaps it will become more automatic for me. So far it does seem to help!

I'm glad to see your doing well! :] You havent done bad at all despite the ups and downs- in fact, i'd say you've done very, very good! I mean, like you said, you've been on trips and went out to eat, and none of those things have triggered you into continuing to gain. You always jump right back into being a healthy example. I've caught up on some of your journals, and see you're as resilient as ever! And so close to your goal! YAY! I'm so happy for you, Carol :] Keep it up!
