back from 2-plus week trip

[Guest guest]

Hi all,

Just came back from a 1700+ mile road trip from MA to ATL and back,

Atlanta University- I graduated from 5 year program. What an

adventure!!!

B.- after reading your post I can TOTALLY relate. Instead of

stopping for food/drinks/snacks along the way, I had to stop every 2-

3 hours to hit the restroom. I brought my meals and PLENTY of water.

This was knowing that in the heat of Atlanta, Georgia my ankles will

swell to 'cankles'.

I did stop before and after my week in ATL. Stayed with a gf(in NC

for a total of 8 days) that is a WW-aholic...non-fat/sugar-free this

and that. While I ate chocolate cake(part of it) for an appetizer one

night at dinner(I had went way past hungry by this point) and took

3/4 of my dinner home, she was eating salads and cardboard.

My ah-ha moment was at 4am Sat morning while driving home when I

realized that in the 16 days that I had been in the 'South', my Sweet

Tea intake had been about 3 glasses when in previous years experience

I would have had at least that much by lunch time on day 1.

I even WANTED to get up and get some exercise. My clothes feel

looser, and for for the first time I did not come home with swollen

ankles and a weight gain.

IE WORKS!!!
