A step backwards...

Hi everyone! I am back from my vacation. :) Overall I had a wonderful time and my SO and I enjoyed the vacation. I did not have too much trouble with my BS levels, except for the days when we were actually in the car traveling. But, I did gain a few pounds. I of course did not get to follow my diet as closley as I do at home, so now I have to work a little harder to reach my goal for my weight loss. :( At least we had a good time though. I took my SO to meet my family in IL. We went and explored my hometown, quite a historic little town (Alton, IL) and then we went across the river to St Louis to explore there. :)

Hi Tara and welcome back. I am so very glad to hear that you and your SO had such a great time. Also that you did not have any serious trouble with your blood sugars and it can be expected to not have such a great blood sugar while having to sit in a care while traveling so that is so normal of a thing to happen. Also know that a little gain in weight is also typical while on vacation since you do want to enjoy yourself some and cannot expect meals to be as healthy as they are at home, but hey what is a vacation with out some good food to enjoy. Besides you can get the few pounds you gained back off in no time at all.
Your both so lucky to have gotten a good vacation, because it is vital to every

Hi Tara,
The most important thing is that you had a good time on the vacation. As soon as you get back into your routine at home the weight you gained will come off.
I hope the weather wasn't too bad for your vacation either. We have been having record warm temperatures here in Nothern California for the past two weeks. To day it suddenly dropped 20 degrees and became windy. We are supposed to have rain by Wednesday. :-( I bought a new pair od sandals yesterday. I was going to wear them today but it was cold I didn't think blue toes would go well with my red dress!
Take care and keep up the good work.
