It's nice to be home. there were several pitfuls with an extended family camping trip. it was communal eating, with the aunts in charge of menu planning. I had asked to be included so i could plan healthy but that didn't work out so well. my back up plan was to bring my own choices. I knew we would have fried bread one night so i planned to substitute a grilled chicken. the first night, i came back from my walk to find the chicken ( all of it) being grilled for dinner. the second pitful was that everything was stored in ice chest. my salad didn't make it past day two. we did have great summer produce, as one of the aunts stopped by a produce stand, and then costco. so i had corn, real fruit, strawberries watermelon and cantaloupe at each meal. food diary didn't work- by the time i remembered it, it was dark out, to dark to write. my pediometer broke on day twos hike. BUT the weather was fantastic, it rained really hard the day we left. it was great fun seeing my kids play with their cousins, and second cousins, and third cousins. we went to an amusement park, boating and swimming at the lake, frisbee golf and great hiking. I tried to avoid the controversial discussions and had lots of quiet reading time.

my weight stayed the same, so no damage. i really appreciate indoor plumping and my real bed.

I had lots of trouble when I went to my brother's wedding--mostly my own body not them! It was hotter than normal and my sinuses were yucky. This triggered migraines. I kept resorted to coke to deal with them (something about the caffiene/sugar blend just helps the head). I vowed to get right back in and I did. Looking back, I would have to say "no damage" either. I think any way of eating that's going to work for the long haul is going to require acceptance of these kind of weeks. Peace, Georgia

Hahahaha! Oh, I know EXACTLY what you mean when you say "I really appreciate indoor plumbing and my real bed," ha-ha. Camping is fun but there is only so much you can take. Good job watching your eating. You're doing great!
