Red face just back from vacation! and lost 3 pounds!

Hi all, I was pleasantly surprised at how easy I found it to LC while on vacation, as long as I have been doing this (on/off) I never even tried to stick with it during vacation. But what the heck we are in charge of what we eat not the other way around right!?!?!?!!!!!!!!!!

Anyway, other than two ice cream cones over the 10 days, I really stayed LCing and proved to myself yet again that this is the lifestyle for me. I had so much more energy, and we walked and walked. Also, we went to an amusement park one day, and I fit on all the rides, I didn't even have to sit in the seats specially marked for "larger people". And managed to lose 3 more pounds, life is ok , other than being back to work today of course!!!

Just had to share, hope you all have a super week!
Susan

I recently went on vacation before I started atkins again, and I kept thinking how hard it would have been, if I was on atkins at the time.....So i give u many ! And not only did u stick with it, but u lost too, how great is that! Well good luck with the rest of your journey!!

Way to go suzieq!
It's an inspiration.
My DH is working on being able to sit in a booth at a restaurant. Still isn't there yet, but well on the way.

You're an inspiration. I had made my goal, was on maintenance and then blew it while traveling. I was really good when I traveled a year ago, so this time around, I just let go. 11 pounds later.......... Now I'm back in induction. Oh well, at least I'm getting back in the saddle, right! I am going to keep you in mind when I vacation next (and the 11 pounds) You go girl!
