Vaca was great and then the reality of being with my kids and husband for 12 days set in...ugh! On Sunday we became all-Blair, all the time. Sometimes you need a vacation from a vacation but this time we just needed a vacation from each other. All in all we had a good time. It truly was a relaxing, expensive, but relaxing time. We fished a lot, did Jolly Rogers Water Park, golfed, swam, and ATE. OMG did we eat. We ate like we were on a cruise!!! Thank God for the Big E (OC elliptical). Like I said, I ate and drank like a glutton but I also had a morning date each day and that I truly believed helped me quite a bit. I did gain 4 pounds while away but big Chris gained 8 and he never had an a.m. date. (well, once but I thought and he thought he was gonna die, so his dating life was over -- drama king!!) I'm proud to say that as soon as we arrived back in Arbutus, WW and I were reunited and at my weigh in today I was down the 4 and an additional 1.5....so 24.5# down!!! SUPER EXCITED!!
I've kept my end of the exercise bargain with my body, I just wish it would be a little nicer to me. Of course it could be feeling like, "In your face big girl....look what you've put me through all these years and seriously, you're not 29 anymore." I'm sure that's what it's saying -- what a bitch!! On Sunday morning, Stewie and I walked our 4 miles in the 972 degree/99.9% humidity. If I was on a treadmill and felt like that, I'd have fallen off the back but a girl and her dog have got to get home. So we walked some more. Stewie laid his little ass right in front of his water bowl when he got home, taking drinks and napping simultaneously! I swear I thought we were on a survivor series show : One Girl, One Dog! Oh well, that's old news....we're still alive and kickin'.
My black toe nail is healing up nicely (still attached) but apparently my baby toe nail on the same foot felt like it didn't want to participate anymore and decided to fall right off. So as I type, I have skin painted in place of a toe nail.
Yesterday it was so hot, again, that I decided I needed to throw some strength training into my mix. More muscle burns more calories (even when just typing). Bob and I reunited for a nice boot camp workout and then I reluctantly got on my 1.5 yr old, almost never used, home elliptical and started to form a relationship. Just so you know, I will never (at least I don't think) feel the same love for Little E as I do OC's Big E!
Next week will be 3 months, a nice 25 down or more would be awesome!!!
