I don't know how this happened.........but it did!!!!! OMG, I am so excited!!!!

I have actually LOST weight on vacation!!!!! I weighed last Monday right before my trip and was 177 and I just weighed....OMG!!!! I am 171!!!! How is that possible????? I got off and on a few times to make sure it was right!!!!

I mean, last Monday when I weighed it fluctuated between 177 and 175....so maybe it was really 175....but either way, I have lost 4 to 6 lbs in 10 days!!! Maybe all the maintains I had suddenly caught up?????? LOL! Also, I DID splurge on vacation a little but not much and I still planned accordingly. Like if I knew I was going to have a big dinner, I ate light all day. And I still tried to start the day out on a healthy note whenever possible with yogurt and fruit and a fiber one bar.

BUT, this almost makes me cry because it makes me feel so much more confidence in myself to be able to make the right choices even when not able to calorie count so much. I ate healthy quite often, walked as much as I could and just enjoyed myself! I mean, two nights ago I had filet mignon hibachi dinner and ate pretty much every bite!!!! I did have a very light breakfast and lunch that day though. On Sunday, I had a little of my grandpas biscuits and sausage gravy. I didn't smother it..I shared the biscuits with my son and put enough on to enjoy.

Sorry to go on and on! I am just shellshocked!! In a good way! I was just hoping to have a maintain!! :laugh: :laugh:

LOVE YOU GUYS!!!! So happy to be back to my friends!! :heart: :heart: :smooched: :smooched:

    you've reached self sustainance. Like a black hole. :tongue:

    Now you will lose weight without actually trying. Ha! I wish that were actually a true thing.

    Great job Tam! I think you may be my vote for the MFP poster child! :flowerforyou:
