7/5/2015 Days 53, 54, 55 and 56 Great Time

We had an amazing time away in Maine for the Holiday weekend.  We camped on an island close to the beach and spent the days sitting by the shore.  The weather was great, the kids were great and the food was great.  Although I did end up going over every single day, I didn’t do nearly as much damage as I typically would have.  However, with that said, I have decided that tomorrow morning I deserve a pass and will wait another week to weigh in.  I am sure that I wouldn’t be that happy with what I saw and I would rather not ruin what was a great weekend by looking at the grey box and beating myself up all week.  Because I want this to be a long term change for me (and because I did a lot of small things over the weekend that I have never done on vacation, like continue to have yogurt for breakfast instead of pancakes, eggs and sausage), I want to keep all the positive things in my mind and take the week to recover.  It is ok if every week is not a loss, as long as I don’t jump completely off the horse.  And I have no intention of jumping, I plan on this being a really long ride.
