Home from Convention ... and I LOST WEIGHT!!

Last week I was at a rubber stamp convention in Salt Lake City for 6 days. I had tried so hard in the weeks prior to keep losing weight. My goal was just to MAINTAIN my weight while I was gone. Well, I was pretty selective about what I ate, although I did allow myself a few treats (a big cupcake on Thursday, mexican food twice with a LOT of chips and salsa on Saturday night, Fettucini alfredo Thursday) and i STILL came home weighing 1/2 pound less than I did when I left. We did a LOT of walking so that definately helped. I am so excited. I didn't drink that much water, so knew I might even be retaining some. I drank a lot more yesterday, plus worked out, and this morning I'm a pound less. So ... I'm 1.4 less than I was last Tuesday. YAAAYYYY. I haven't seen this number since early October last year!!!

Oh, and on Saturdy I wore my pair of size 8 shorts whoo hoooooooo!!!!!!! Who cares that they run a little big. They are still an 8 ... and I have the tag to prove it! hahaha.

We leave next Sunday for our cruise and I'd like to be 4.6 less than today ... that would put me exactly where I was last summer when we cruised to Hawaii.
