I did it! (mini-goal achievement!)

Well, I made it to my mini-goal of going to the gym 8 times in one month, and earning 100 fitness reward points.

I actually went 9 times! And, given that, in the month of September, I was really only in town for 20 evenings (i don't go to the gym in the mornings), I think 9 out of 20 is pretty fricken great!

I had a good week eating-wise. Much more regular in my points, and, despite the new television shows (which provide a great opportunity to sit and snack) I still did very well. Very few "indulgences" this week, except for a cocktail tonight at one of our favorite places tonight - I couldn't resist trying "homemade limecello". Limoncello, sure, but LIMEcello? Yessir!

We're headed out of town for 5 days, going to visit family, and I will get to do plenty of weight-lifting, about 6 pounds at a time -- picking up my new little nephew, Luke! Mary, my sister-in-law, has offered to have me go with her to her gym, so that will help stay on track. And Mary and Joe are sensible eaters, and so it's not like the food we'll encounter on vacation will be too overwhelming. I've saved all my extra points, and earned several activity points, so I don't have to worry too much about my eating, and can splurge a couple of meals, too.

I won't be weighing in again until next Thursday... I hope to at least stay flat!

Thanks for reading!
