Today we went to Universal's Island of Adventure. More like Island of Waiting and Waiting and Waiting. Average wait time for a ride was 45 minutes. Nope, not me ever again. But we did have fun at the Hard Rock Cafe and had a great lunch. I didn't have lo-cal food but I didn't eat much so I think all was ok. I might try to log my estimated cals but I'm not too worried about it. Overall, I averaged 1500 cals a day or less while on vacation. I have never, ever accomplished that before in my life. A major milestone!
Karen, welcome to our thread. Accountability is the key for me. I go missing for a couple weeks and you can bet the house I'm eating like I have a metabolism. As I don't, I must check in regularly.
on the 3.2 pound loss.Kathy, keep bolstering up your DH's ego. In this economy, very people's jobs are safe. BTW, I saw the pretty sunrise again this morning before we left Daytona and came to the theme park capitol of the world.
Penny, I'm glad your lunch was nice. Its always good to catch up on friend's lives.
I guess that's it for now. BTW, DH and I saw The International last night and the movie was ok. I wouldn't spend $$$ to see it again. But we did rent Eagle Eye the night before and it was absolutely fantastic. I can't stop thinking about. So there you go, a highly recommended moving. I did want to see The Reader but I didn't get a review from Judy other than the mouse blew by and she ran screaming.

. When it comes down to it, our loved ones are all that counts. I'll keep you in my thoughts and prayers.
I've been down the same road as you. I lost 40 lbs. (very slowly over 3 years) but have gained 20 lbs. back in the past several months, partly due to having 3 surgeries last year. Sometimes it's hard to stay on track when we have physical or psychological stress (or both!). I'm glad you're back on the wagon. All of us here have fallen off more often than we'd probably like to admit, but the main thing is we keep on climbing back on and hanging on for dear life!
Good luck with your renewed weight loss efforts.

I asked him to take it apart as it was out of warranty. He worked on it (boy the insides are so complex compared to old fashioned cameras) and finally said it was dead. While he was I researched a digital SLR camera (the expensive type with interchangeable lens). Costco had send an email in the morning about a special so I researched it. The reviews were great and I liked the features. So I called our costco and they had 3 in stock. so i drove over the mountain and bought it. In the meantime, DH got our point and shoot to work. But he thinks the grain of sand broke a gear as you can hear it grind a bit as the lens moves. So now I have my good point and shoot as well as this awesome camera. BTW, I wanted to be a professional photographer as a teen and young adult and am pretty good at it. Had my own darkroom and the fancy old equipment. So I'm very excited about my new toy. It was what I was exercising for next so I'm way in debt in my exercise log.
