I have been so focused on the weight loss part of my lifestyle change since the end of March and then my vacation happened... I've been so incredibly busy making sure that my husband and kids enjoy what's left of the summer that I haven't even gotten on a scale since my last weigh in of the 12 week challenge. Now don't get me wrong I have been sticking to my clean eating plan, earning a small cheat here and there, but I haven't been hitting the gym 5 or 6 days a week... going to the gym is a lot different then taking a run, or swim, or bike ride.
The last few days I have felt pretty puffy... I had the flu and didn't take my BeautySlender... this is never a good feeling for me, I NEED it!! LOL and I haven't been eating much either... that too isn't a good idea. So when mother nature dropped off her little gift I thought my abdomen would explode! I don't know if I just get more bloated now, or if I didn't realise how bloated I actually got when I was fat that it just seems worse now... but holy crap it sucks! So when I got to boot camp tonight and Sam asked me to do a weight check, I flat out refused... I mean seriously, today is not a good day to weigh in... seriously!
But then I had to pee... so while I was in there I figured WTH, jump on the scale and lets see where I'm at... I haven't lost any more weight... ouch! But I haven't gained any either... that's a plus. Check out Sam's article on Summer Maintenance in Sandra's Corner under BeautyTalk. It's real easy to gain, especially while on vacation... but I haven't. I've learned to make the right decisions and keep myself in check, without compromising the fun (cuz I didn't even notice I was doing it) and just going about my life... how awesome is that??
Living the BeautyFit lifestyle is working for me... I still have some pounds to shed, I still have some issues that I have to mentally work through. I have days that are PURE CRAP and days that are bang on... but overall, I've got this! Everyday, vacation or not, I GOT THIS!
