The kids and I got back from visiting family in Iowa for a week and a half (including four travel days) on Friday. I'd been a bit afraid of stepping on the scale because of all the goodies enjoyed while away. AE Chocolate Milk. Homemade ice cream. Chocolate chip bars. Special K bars. And while at Adventureland with the family -- pizza and FUNNEL CAKE. Yum-o!
But today I had to step on the scale and face my worst fears. My sister gave me her "body bug" (although it's not the same version as the one showcased on Biggest Loser -- this is a Body Media device) to help me get a better idea of how many calories I actually burn each day. So this afternoon, I spent a few minutes setting up an account and had to....gasp!...include my current weight for my profile. The damage done after that time away from my strenuous 1500 calories a day? A 2-lb gain. Really, in the grand scheme of things, 2 lbs is not a huge deal. Yes, I could've done better. But I'm not gonna sweat it.
Meanwhile, back to the grindstone!
