You look so happy and pretty. Glad you had fun and enjoyed yourself. Isn't it fun to go on vacation and lose weight? 

 “Let someone love you just the way you are – as flawed as you might be, as unattractive as you sometimes feel, and as unaccomplished as you think you are. To believe that you must hide all the parts of you that are broken, out of fear that someone else is incapable of loving what is less than perfect, is to believe that sunlight is incapable of entering a broken window and illuminating a dark room.”― Marc Hack

Thanks, JJ0609, for such a nice note!  Yes, I should be grateful to have lost while on vacation.  I think it was just a little jarring because until now I have lost more per week.  Thanks for putting it in perspective for me :)

You did great!  Who goes on vacation and loses weight--you do!  Well done.  I'm glad you had a good time.

Thanks, Karen!  Love the reminder to see the positive!  I know how absurd it sounds to be bummed about losing 1.4 lbs.  It was just a shock this morning, I suppose.  I do feel good - thanks for reminding me!

Thanks, Annette!  Yes, the four day getaway was perfect!  I highly recommend it to anyone as this winter goes on and on!  I am originally from Detroit so we used to road trip to Toronto for weekends :)  Great city!  But yes, cold!!!!  I am sorry you have more snow!  Stay warm :)

You did great! I lived in PR for 3 years and PR food is not exactly RNY friendly! Carbs, carbs and more carbs with a side of carbs! hope your winter ends soon!

Amen to that, Danslillady!  I mean, did I want rice, french fries, mashed plantains, or rice?  Or maybe some rice and beans?  How about some rice?  LOL!  I was definitely challenged to eat enough protein each day, but I did not do carbs, so that's good :)  Living there for 3 years must have been nice though.  Great people and incredible weather :)
