Just a quick note to let you know I haven't fallen off the face of the earth.  I actually returned yesterday - back to reality - from a 10 day vacation in beautiful British Columbia, Canada.  I didn't really advertise the fact I was going, since I'd heard/read that wasn't a really good idea.  Anyways... I'm back, with some extra pounds to get rid of, as I was not very "good" on vacation.  Some things did not go exactly according to my plan, but that's OK.  I'm back on my Weight Watchers plan and journaling already today, and that is what I think is important.  Vacations will happen, off plan days will happen, but you can't let it turn into weeks, months, and years... that is where I've learned this time around to draw the line.  I'm not happy with my gain, but I'm moving on with what I know works:  working out/running and eating well.  I'll write more about my trip, and things I've learned hopefully soon, but right now there is lots (of laundry) to catch up on!
