Having trouble getting this last regained pound off. But I feel great so I'm focusing on that. Neat thing at dinner tonight. Had dinner and great conversation with a friend and ordered the Cobb salad. And it arrived and was HUGE with an eually HUGE garlic roll. And I took more than half of it home and didn't eat the roll. oops - wait - I tried the roll and found it bland and non-descript so set it aside. And only ate what my tummy wanted. And now, several hours later still feel full and happy about not stuffing myself. So I may not be in ONEderland, but I'm finding it easier to focus on the good stuff instead of the number on the scale.  I'm still tempted by stuff all the time and sometimes I eat some of the tempting stuff but not like I used to. Not out of control.
Memorial Day weekend. Plenty of time to get out in my rowing shell and enjoy the water. Time to garden and go for long walks or bike rides. Time for friends and cruises on the lake. And will there be food and alcohol? Sure, lots of both. But I feel ready for all of those choices. Ready to sail through the weekend without wearing most of it on my hips.
Will I make my goal of ONEderland in time for my trip on June 9th? Probably not. But I won't be uncomfortable in that airplane seat. I won't be worried about spilling over into someone else's space on that plane. I'll happily be taking my size 16's (my very roomy size 16's) with me. And eventually, some time this summer, I will own those size 14's.
