SO close!
Today is the first day of my vacation.
I had hoped to achieve my (high) goal of 150 by today, but am a pound off.
When I woke up at 4 AM I weighed myself (my morning practice) and it said 151.6 I was so disappointed that I went back to bed. When i got up 3 hours later, I had "lost" .6 pounds, lol! So I'm at 151. That made me feel better even though I KNOW that the scale is just one data point (as they say on Half Size Me podcast) and I shouldn't put so much stock in it. Indeed, my guess is that after a couple of cups of (black) coffee (zero calories) that when I go up to take a shower later, I'll probably have gained a pound or two, lol.
REALLY trying not to get crazy abut all of this, but I am headed out on vacation today which will include lots of cooking, eating "holiday" foods and drinking. All calorie laden. And away from my M-F trips to the gym. I don't want to restrict myself during vacation (I did that last year and was so glum the whole time) and I don't want to come home feeling terrible about myself, either. I have GOT TO FIND a happy medium. I know, I know, portion control. Have a small piece of pie. One glass of wine, not the whole bottle. The whole "Half Size Me" philosophy is about finding a WOE that you can stick with for life, not just to lose weight, but after decades of doing it the other way, I'm just not there yet. The Diet/Party cycle is well practiced for me and ingrained.
