Weigh In Wednesday

So I didn't have a weigh in last week because we were on vacation...so it's been 2 weeks since I last weighed myself.  I had all sorts of good intentions for keeping somewhat on a diet and exercising while I was in California.  Yeah.  That didn't happen.  So let me start this weigh in by giving everyone a little idea of what I was dealing with on vacation.....

Round Table Pizza
Buttermilk Cinnamon Pound Cake
On The Border Happy Hour, complete with nachos, taquitos, chips and salsa, guacamole, and chicken wings
Don Elliott Margaritas...daily
Ribs
Cinnamon Rolls
Tri Tip Steak
Cole Slaw
BJs Restaurant Flat bread pizza, mac 'n cheese and bruschetta
Dairy Queen Blizzards
Easter candy
Denny's Breakfast
Carls Jr.
Bratwursts
did I mention margaritas?

And this doesn't even include our little get-away to Vegas where I indulged in THE best crab cake eggs Benedict, so much sushi that I probably ate the equivalent of an entire Tuna, scallops that I'm sure were soaked in butter and delicious, over-indulgent adult beverages!

So needless to say, working out really wouldn't have even put a dent in the amount of calories I was consuming everyday.  Plus, after eating all that food, I could barely walk up the stairs let alone do sit ups of any kind!

I really didn't want to get on the scale until my weigh in.  No need in freaking myself out, right?  We've been home for 4 days now and it's been crazy getting ourselves and Ryleigh back onto Eastern time, plus going back to work, getting the house situated again and just getting back into our everyday routine.  So I haven't really been eating like I should, I've skipped breakfast a couple times and yesterday I didn't even eat anything until about 7:30pm.  The sad thing is, I wasn't even hungry.  I have so much food build up from vacation, I'm not even hungry 4 days later, haha!  I also haven't worked out at all since I've been back.  But I plan to get back into the swing of things here shortly and hopefully have an impressive week next week : )

So what's the damage?  I stepped on my scale this morning, completely naked because lets face it, I didn't want to add ANY extra unnecessary ounces and to my surprise I lost....

.4 pounds

Can you believe that?!  I don't know if in a couple weeks it will all catch up with me, but I'm hoping not.  Maybe this is God's way of rewarding me for a job well done these past few months of dieting and exercising.  He let me indulge, then not have to worry about losing it all.  That sure would be nice of him : )
