Horses and Getting Back on Them

Yep, get back on that horse
So, I'm back from vacation. Did I accomplish my goals of eating right and exercising?

No.

Well sort of. I took a long walk every day, but I never got my heart rate up. I ate every meal healthy... except when I went out for pizza, Chinese and boli's. I discovered that if I lived up north I would be fat and I'm not sure I could manage anything other than that.

But here's the important part... I came home and I'm eating right and exercising again. I had to take a day off from exercising because I had a ridiculous amount of things to do. But here I am 4 days after getting home and I'm eating right again and hitting the gym. I felt like I had gained 5 pounds while in PA, but I'm very happy to say that I only gained 2. So apparently being healthy stays with you even when you're eating too many pieces of pizza.

So, the lesson I learned that I want to impart to everyone out there in the trying to lose weight world... If you fall of the horse, just get back on it. Don't hate yourself, don't beat yourself up. Don't give it up as lost just because you messed up a little. Just go home and put your nose back to the grindstone (yes I really did just use all those sayings).
