back from mini-vaca #1 - White Mtns, NH

[imgoingtodisney]

did ok - saw lots of frozen tropical drinks at the pool and didnt have one - this is a big accomplishment for me
at the daily nighttime ice cream social when DS had his ice cream I brought fruit with me
we drank lots of water
climbed to the top of the Indian Head tower - several flights of stairs
pedaled on the paddle boats for 20mins w/DS
every day I did have my cherries, grapes, blueberries & strawberries
Hiked 2 miles through flume gorge, took tram to top of Loon Mtn and hiked some in the caves, every morn had my coffee while walking the mile around Shadow Lake at Indian Head; walked the trail (3/4mile) at Sci Ctr at Squam Lakes in Holderness

However on the way home today when we stopped at Burger King I had a chicken club sandwich. Wasnt beef but it did have bacon on it!
and Sat had an italian grinder when I took DS for pizza


Lets hope Im at least 1/2 this good on my next vaca - July 18-24

WELCOME BACK!

Sounds like you were very active while you were away! I'm sure that helped combat any "damage" the grinder and BK meal could have done. And GOOD FOR YOU for saying NO to all those frozen tropical drinks! And thanks to you I am now a cherry addict! They are GRRREEEEEAAAAT! You did an excellent job making sure you ate your fruits instead of ice cream! GREAT GREAT GREAT!!! You should be very proud of yourself, I think you can safely say you have some new healthy eating habits! HURRAY!!!!

My wife and I just got back from an active vacation ourselves, hiking the Great Smokey Mountains National Park in TN. What a great feeling to be able to tackle such rigorous activity, when two years ago (and 160 excess pounds ago, between the two of us) we could barely walk from tour bus to museum in Egypt.

New "One Year After Starting Maintenance" pictures from this trip posted on our web site, brianandrobbie.com, if anyone's interested in seeing a nice contrast.
