Well, as history has proven, all common sense left me the minute the plane touched down in Germany. Way too much food and wine, but what's done is done and I can't dwell on it. I ate the gummy bears (and other gummy items) and all the other junk!
I am going to try to stay off the scale until Fri, but I won't be surprised if I gravitate towards the scale earlier than that! I'm pretty sure I gained 3-5lbs.
It just stinks because I erased 2 months worth of effort in a single weekend! But usually the travel weight comes off within a week or so, I think it's mostly water weight.
I didn't keep track of food, but there were handmade caramels involved, as well as WAY too many gummies! I'm still in the London airport, but my flight will be boardng in about 1/2 hour. Hopefully there are enough groceries in the house for me to piece together a healthy breaksfast and lunch tomorrow. I want to get right back on track! That means going to the gym on T, Th and Sat this week, and doing other workouts on Wed and Fri. That will be my 5x this week then I will be back on the M-F track starting next week. Yep, it'll all work out!

You had a special weekend, I mean it would take super human strength to avoid overeating when in a foreign country known for its good food and wine! I am betting the scale wont' show anything more than a pound or two by Friday. Good job making a gameplan for the workouts. If there is no food in the house, go to Subway for lunch! Hope you had a nice flight home, I know one husband, two kids and one beagle that will be very happy to see you!
It just makes me realize how much I actually do at home... It'll take a couple days to get everything back up to my standards! 
Might as well, I was up at 4am anyway... 
I also jumped on the scale and was really surprised it wasn't any worse than it was! Only a 2lb gain from the day I left! Hopefully at least 1 of those is gone by Fri's WI.
And that you worked out 5x while gone makes it even better!
Men are not multi taskers by nature (sorry if any guys are reading this) so I think its hard when they have to run the whole show!
And I discovered a big pile of clothes in DD's room (some were DS's) and I asked DH what the heck that was all about and he said "oh ya - those need to be washed"... I might just wait until my usual laundry day this weekend!
I know that when I'm gone for any extended period of time (even a few hours) that I often come home to a bigger mess than when I left. Kids and DHs......gotta love 'em! 
I'm going to gently hint to my DH that I would like that for Mother's Day. 
They had a deal where you get a point for everytime you check in and so many points gets you different things. For every 64 points, I got a free month. And since I've been at the gym, I've probably earned 8-10 free months (they sometimes give bonus points, etc). I have just earned enough for one more free month, I need to turn it in by the end of the month. That really stinks, and helped me make up my mind to get the TurboJam videos. I need a change!
I was shocked to see 140 this morning, why couldn't it have been that number yesterday for my WI??? Don't know what's going on with that, but I am going to enjoy it while it lasts. Hopefully I will see that number again (or less, of course!) next Fri! 
But it still tastes good! 
). If the lbs are still off on Friday's WI, a party is in order!
The next 2 weeks are going to be painful. There is no way around it. I am filling in for my boss, which adds to the stress, plus I have been assigned to a new program, which just kicked off this week, and this is in addition to my regular duties, which are hectic enough as it is!
