😀 Just .6 over goal. All I've done is cut my calories back to maintenance levels & the vacation lbs. are coming off. I took a look at my daily logins & realized I actually ate between 2400 & 3000 calories each day last week. Observations.....I could probably eat that many calories a day or 2 each week & as long as I eat less the other days I could maintain. I also know if I ate/ drank that much everyday I could quickly wipe out all the progress I have made. My calorie consumption was not just food. Mixing up tropical tasting cocktails with fruit juices isn't conducive to weight loss/ maintenance. My daughter asked me what prevented me from following my normal WOE. It was hard to get her to understand. She is more about eating healthy foods but refuses to count calories. She was always a thin, little thing....all the while eating ALL the stuff! Now in her 40's she has some health issues contributing to weight gain. But, I also see some of the things she could do to help prevent it. She's still a beautiful girl, but has gained in the tummy area....like many of us ladies do as we get older.

For some reason I'm having some tummy discomfort, since I got home. Gassy, somewhat painful. I ate some Greek yogurt....hopefully that will help. I think my week of indulgence may have caught up with me 🙄

Sitting out on the back deck finishing my coffee & eating the yogurt. It's a hot, sunny day. The gardens need some attention. I arrived home to see they had faired pretty well in my absense. Went out for dinner then came home & watched Outlander with Hubby. He took the dogs out for last call & discovered deer munching away. I had to go out & spray deer repellant @ midnight to avoid any further damage. It's a constant battle but I love the deer and the flowers. What's a girl to do?

Have a lovely Sunday!
