What happened with my weight on vacation...

It had the potential to be an utter disaster. I ate 4 pieces of prime rib in three weeks and even sucked down half a coconut cream pie. But I worked out 8 times, walked a lot, ate my fruit and vegetables every day and kept my Starbucks lattes "skinny". I figured I'd broken even and not gained or lost anything. Then I went to the gym tonight and ended up finding out I'd lost 2.5 kg (5.5 lbs) in less than 4 weeks. That's slower than my normal pace (excuuuuuuuuuuse me!), but it's still above the expectations of my clinic for normal, healthy weight loss (0.5 kg per week)! I'm da bomb! Yeah, dawg! You worked it out!

And I celebrated by replacing my entire wardrobe, because I've dropped from a 5x to a 2x, from a size 60 waist to a 52, a 22 neck to a 19, and have punched more new holes in my belts than I can count. When I got home on Monday I literally cleared out 90% of my closet and stuffed it in 5 trash bags sitting behind me, and replaced it with the new "Summer Collection" purchased in Las Vegas. :-) Now I've got to figure out what to do with all this old crap. But that will be a pleasure.
