Not everything is on vacation

It is true, I am on vacation this week!  I am pretty happy about it!  I have had a rough couple of weeks, and I am glad to get away for awhile. 

Since I have been here I have had a personal struggle.  I love food!! :D  I am surrounded by places I only get to see/eat at on vacation.  So my struggle has been trying to stay in control and not eat everything I see (including the entire box of HOT Krispy Kreme donuts we purchased this evening).  This is hard, but worth it!

I have eaten a little more than I normally would, but I have tried to balance it out with my other meals during the day.  I am a big believer in eating the things you like without going crazy, but IT IS HARD!  I also went to the gym this evening.  I couldn't justify taking the entire week off from exercising #1 because I love to workout #2 because I had the free time so why not??  Since my struggle has always been maintaining my diet, keeping up the workouts seems to be a good plan!

Tomorrow is day 3 and I can say that I feel better about being on vacation then I have in years past.  I have been at this "weight loss" "maintaining" thing for a couple of years and I am still finding bad habits that I need to get rid of.  I am human!!!  I need to try to get over the fact that I will have battles, but I'll just handle it the best I can and try to learn from it!  Today was a victory in itself.  In the fall of 2007, I was a size 18 today I bought a size 4 skirt from the Tommy Hilfiger Outlet. 


On a side and completely unrelated note, big thanks to Jason and Krista Brogan for taking my headshots this weekend!  They are great!!!
