vacation blow up

i just got back from vacation.. well, not a real vacation, i flew across the country with my two kids to visit my parents, my sister and family, and friends i went to highschool and university with.

i went out for three walks, but had my two year old with me. actually one of our walks he made me run for 2 minutes, LOL i had to ask him to stop. and i had to pack him halfway back, that is exactly what i need: to be packing around an extra 30 pounds!! LOL

so i gained, of course. i had hoped not to. that was my goal, but my parents love baguettes and brie, and crackers with cream cheese and hot pepper jelly, and general late night snacking. and let's not forget the gin and tonics!! holy hell... and the cooking. mom did ALOT of cooking. and there were leftovers for lunch *sigh* i was doomed from the start.

8lb.
i gained 8 lb.
so i started tracking yesterday and did AMAZING until after my post dinner nap due to jet lag, and i blew it. big time.
i am back at it today, and i will start walking as soon as i can wake up before 9am, and am not exhuasted every minute of the entire day.
