Not quite Failure

Well I didn't make my goal of 175.  I was SO SUPER close.

...well I thought it was super close.  I got down to 178.2.
Only 3 pounds from my goal weight. 

To me it wasn't a failure.  I know I didn't reach my goal so by definition this is called failure.  BUT I have more energy to want to do things, I am able to walk farther before getting winded/tired, I am able to look in the mirror and see a little less chin.  That screams success to me!

It was a bit crazy to want to lose 7 pounds in 10 days I suppose, but I did lose almost 5 pounds in a week.  I believe my body also lost inches (*I really wish I would have measured that along with the pounds!).

This next week I will be traveling but I won't be giving up. We are going to be walking and sight seeing and doing so much that there won't be time for "bored snacking" and big meals.

...Plus, it will be too dang hot to eat too much!


So until next week...Happy eating! :)
