Vacation is over

I actually feel like I've lost weight during my vacation but the scale showed +3 this morning. I can only imagine what could have been had i not done so much walking.

I enjoyed my vacation. I had ice cream several times-but also choose Lo-fat frozen yogurt with fruit once instead. I had a veggie sandwich on whole wheat English muffin for 'brunch' one morning instead of donuts or fried dough snacks.
But I also ate the potato chips with dinner -probably more than I've had in an entire year because we don't buy them at home- and several hot dogs which I don't love nut there's something about vacation.

I only bought 2 pieces of chocolate despite being surrounded by fudge and candy shops. I was kind of surprised that I didn't crave it more, but not entirely. It is an example of how my mind & body have changed. I truly didn't even want it.

I'm hoping some of The weight is from the sodium in vacation food but that is not an excuse.

I am glad that I did not go completely off track on vacation and found ways to pay attention to what I needed. The last night, they were bringing ice cream back to the house and I was planning a walk. I still took the walk - though I did get the ice cream on my own, i was walking 1+ hours first.

Unpacking today but after I get the laundry in, I plan to go for a walk. The iPod is ready. My son is at grandma's so it would be easy to sit and catch up on tv but I will take time for me in a new way.
