Well, the weigh in for today was that I was down a pound. I am happy with that but sometimes I feel like a turtle in the land of rabbits....I do know that in the end, the turtle going slow and steady does win the race. I only get frustrated because I also know that the beginning is where you lose the the quickest - so, if I'm already losing slow, what will it be like a few months from now? I'm happy, trust me - I'd rather see the scale move downward, no matter how much, then not at all - or...horrors...move up! But, some people lose 5 lbs in a week - I can't seem to do it in three weeks! But, being honest, I know that I also thwart my own progress - not tracking yesterday because I was so busy, not walking the past two days, etc.
But, moving onward and upward (well, in this case *downward*), we are leaving this afternoon for a few days at the beach. I'm not worried about staying on course on vacation. First, it's vacation - I'm not going to stress. Second, I plan to be very active - swimming, walks on the beach, etc. The worst part for me will be drinking - but, again, it is vacation and a drink or two is going to happen. We'll see where the scale is Tuesday and go from there. Fingers crossed for good weather and a fun time - we haven't been away since 2006 so we really need this. My son is so excited he couldn't go to sleep last night! :) Also fingers crossed that my *girls* (our two labs) are okay - I hate leaving them home when we go away (yes, I'm *that* kind of dog mom!) but I know we have lots of people checking on them and they are truly happier here than in a kennel.
Okay, gotta run - I've had my 10 minute root touch up on for about 30 minutes now so lets hope my hair is not orange! :) Have a great weekend!!
