Back from Vacation

9Well, I didn't exactly lose any weight on vacation, in fact I'm actually up almost two pounds. That's okay; the problem though is that this week the weather has been so dreary and cold that all I have wanted to do is eat since I've been home. I have been in a really deep funk this week and I'm sure Keith is about ready to send me back to Connecticut! I am even considering calling my doctor back and requesting medication. I suffer from SAD (Seasonal Affective Disorder) and the weather is really causing it to rear it's ugly head this week; and SAD is not weight related. I have been extremely exhausted this week, and feel like I could just sleep for days. This isn't exactly the post I had hoped to put up this week, but it is what it is and SAD is something I will apparently have to be very careful of for the winter coming on, that head game of wanting to eat when it's cold is of great concern to me. It's a continual battle of the mind!

I did find out that one of my blog followers recognized me a couple of weeks ago when I was out at Cracker Barrel, that was really cool! If you are following my blog and I don't know you, let me know if you see me, I would love to meet you! When I found out I had been seen I found myself going back thinking "Oh my gosh! What did I eat????" I hadn't thought about the possibility of people "watching" me. I remembered that I had eaten well though so I didn't worry about it, LOL! Good thing nobody saw me on vacation!!! I actually didn't do too bad, except the hotel had a continental breakfast and since it was free we ate there several days. The problem with that was that all they had was bagels, toast, and cereal. No protein! I just ate a bagel and a banana most mornings and tried to make up for the protein while we were out......not sure I achieved that goal, but I did the best I could.

On the up side.....Connecticut and New York were awesome, and I got to see my boy!!! Connecticut is a very beautiful state, and New York was really fun, and I definitely got my exercise in.....we walked and walked and walked! I wouldn't want to live in either place, but they were great places to visit! Irene was gone by the time we got there, and the weather was absolutely beautiful!!!
