We are back from our trip up north. I cannot believe we survived an entire vacation without eating a single thing but Optifast. In fact, it is difficult to believe that we have survived an entire 3 months without eating anything (and I mean absolutely anything--never cheated once) but Optifast shakes and bars.
Anyhow, on our trip we did lots of fun things. Some physical things that we probably would not have done in the past. Jeremy, Chloe and I climbed the sand dunes and got exceptionally farther than we ever have in the past. Jeremy and I went canoeing onthe Platte river that opens up to Lake Michigan beach and it was completely beautiful. I also managed to run one morning around the resort which was very hilly. Running on the treadmill is quite different from running cross-country!!
Now we are in the home stretch of the active phase of our weight loss program. After this week we will transition and begin to gradually--very gradually eat "real" food again. The first week includes 4 oz. lean protein and 1/2 cup cooked vegetables for dinner. A grilled chicken breast and steamed asparagus never sounded so damn good.
