A little more of the journey

So. I went on vacation to California. It was warm and sunny and plain gorgeous.

I ate and ate and ate and then ate some more. I take full responsibility for my actions. I am to blame for the millions of pastries and candies that I ate. I also ate my weight in s'mores. I did it. I am to blame. I was off track and the consequences were the eight pounds I gained while on vacation.

So here I am wanting to hit my head against the wall and am disappointed in myself. I feel weak and like I am out of control. I really need to reboot and do better. I have decided that from here to May 28(the day I plan on heading to Wisconsin for the summer) I will track everything I eat. If I don't know what the PointPlus value(Weight Watchers lingo!) is for the food I cannot eat it. I really need to get those eight pounds off and figure out exactly what I can eat to maintain.

So, there is a good thing that came out of all this madness, I do have a new determination to be on track and figure out maintenance.
