Even I didn't realize it's been THAT long...

I think I've lost track of time in some ways. It's almost 3 months since I hit the 20 pound mark and have wandered between +1 and -1 of that area since then. This week is no exception (including Friday, when I was down more than a pound from where I started last week, but gained it back, as I usually do, over the weekend).

This week's weigh in: +0.2 lbs.
Total weight loss: -19.5 lbs.

I keep wondering if my stall will be permanent, and I keep telling myself it can't be... and this week is no different! It's still about meeting challenges and trying each week to make some progress, whether it's weight or inches or cardio health and fitness, all of which gets measured differently.

The next week or so will be the "vacation challenge" I spoke of a few weeks ago.

We're heading to Maui on Wednesday. From a diet point of view, that brings:

• 14 or so hours of travel day type food in airports and airplanes (never a good thing... way too much snacking and sodium-filled foods)
• 6 dinners, at least three of which will be at nice restaurants with indulgent menus
  
• challenges finding good and reasonably priced lunches
• not even sure about breakfast for the first 2 mornings (we'll be at the hotel), given our clocks will be off a bit.
• ummmm.... mai tais.
  

Positives:

• lots of opportunity to go walking along Kanapa'ali Beach
• I do plan on doing at least 1 if not 2 instances of C25k
• Lots of fresh fruit available
• Dinners will involve a lot of fish, which we don't eat a lot of here.

We plan on being pretty active most days, including activities like scuba diving and zip lining. But we also plan on some beach and pool lounging and some spa time.

We don't come back until late next Tuesday, so it is conceivable I don't post again until after vacation. I hope you'll come back to check it out!

Thanks for reading!
