*snackboy restocks the tray with chocolate dipped salt licks*


While on vacation, we ate out damn near every meal. I think I gained ten pounds and felt really good about it. It's always been very difficult for me to put on weight and keep it on. I've been very active in the past so I tended to burn the calories I consumed with ease. Whether my metabolism is changing or it's the result of not practicing martial arts regularly anymore...I don't know, but I am ok with the weight and hope I can hold on to it.

Mrs. WI has been going to Curves twice a week and paying closer attention to her caloric & fat intake. Over vacation, she thinks she lost weight. Her meals were much healthier and we walked miles and miles. Since arriving back, she's gone to Curves twice already and can't wait to go a third time this week. The vacation seems to be a real springboard for her. I think it's really more of a mental boost than a physical one.

Oh yeah...I drank way too much coffee too, but I'm back at home and back off the bean.

It really does a body and mind good to read through this thread. I'm so glad to be able to witness it all.
