Back on Track

Hello Ladies and Gent!

I'm back! And, while vacation was great, it's good to be home. My vacation goal was to lose 3-5 pounds. I didn't make it. Before vacation I was 156 and I was 156 after. I acknowledged my initial disappointment and frustration - I really FELT better and thinner after this vacation. So not losing anything was a surprise. And then I was grateful for this team and the ability to RECOMMIT each and every day. Of course, the 'old' Gerri would have been amazed and overjoyed at not gaining weight after a week's vacation, so there is that.

I know I was a different person on this vacation. I loved the fact that our timeshare was next to Riverwalk where I had wonderful places to walk in the morning. I did my 1 hour+ walk Sunday thru Thursday and this included STEPS, which initially was a big strain, but by Wed and Thurs I was looking for MORE steps! And I wasn't as interested in hearing about restaurant recommendations as I was about interesting places to visit. Food just didn't have as much of a draw for me. We did a LOT of walking, so even though JAWZ tagged along now and then, I found he had less of a hold on me than ever before.

So here's to being healthy and fit at 50!
