When I left for my Florida vacation on the 12th of June I weighed 222 pounds. After 2 weeks in Florida I weighed on June 29 227 so I gained 5 poun ds. That was frustrating but I will tell you sonmething I discovered. I need a scale. Because while I was in Florida and not able to weigh myself, I was convinced I had gained much more. I even at one point looked down at my thighs and thought I weighed 347 again. I know it is all psychological because I could not see the number on the scale. I was so releaved to find it was only 5 pounds. The bad part is I did not lose the weight 1-2 pounds each week for that time I gained it instead. However I am happy to report that this week I started at 227 and this morning I was 218 so I lost 9 pounds since monday. Tommorow is my official weigh day and I will post but I expect I will be 218 then as well. So the weight really fell off after I was home and able to really control the aspects of my diet again.
