Good morning healthies
I'm home after a week-long business trip, and weighed in this morning to find myself up 2 lbs.
Honestly, I'm good with it.
After all of the stress I've been (am) going through for months and months, it felt good to be celebrated for an entire week. My colleagues celebrated my birthday twice....my immediate team (that knows I'm trying to eat healthier) with Skinny Cow ice cream sandwiches, the expanded team with an amazing meal at a mexican restaurant (including a couple of margaritas and some fried ice cream), plus a senior management dinner at a great italian restaurant....not to mention catered lunches and snacks galore during project kick-off meetings.
The week was totally, magnificently successful. My new boss is impressed. My VP-level boss gave me some amazingly awesome feedback. And I got a nice surprise in my paycheck by way of a thank you for the hard work of the last year.
Rooster traveled with me, which had to be a bit boring for him...but he did great, walking from hotel to the office each day for lunch, going swimming in the hotel pool, joining us for dinners out. It was great to see him in that environment...shaking hands and introducing himself, joining into the dinner and lunch time conversations with execs and colleagues....good stuff.
So...up two pounds...and it'll come off soon enough.
