    Red face Survived 10 day vacation!

    Hooray -- no gain on 10 day vacation. That said, I am back to very healthy choices this week since I didn't feel as well with some of the lss healthy ones. I was careful, but decided to go without scales and without tracking.

    Surprisingly I was not stressed, and I think the habits of the past 15 months since the sleeve may have "stuck"!

    That and the sage advice from y'all!

    So grateful for the sleeve!
    [I]HW: 240 lbs SW: 199 lbs GW: 140 lbs

    1 MO = 167.0 2 MO = 156.4 3 MO = 148.4 4 MO = 140.6
    5 M) = 136.0 6 MO = 130.0
    1 YR = 122.0 2 YR = 140.00 2.5 YR = 139
    Happy with my weight; happy with my size; over-the-moon with my health!

    Well, you see?
    Nothing to worry about.
    You handled it like the pro you are.
    Well done!
    English is not my first language anymore, so I may and do make mistakes in my spelling, or say things oddly. Please ask me, if you want any clarifications.

    You are a pro at this point!!! Sometimes you have throw caution to the wind, kick your heels up, and throw caution to the wind. So glad you had fun.

    Good for you. It's a good thing that ends well. Before the pandemic started, my wife and I flew to Germany on vacation. We ended up being stuck there for several months. It was horrible. Money was getting scarcer, and the plane prices were not insignificant. Thankfully there was plenty of time and I found some websites that offered great discounts and great deals on airfare. And we were able to get home safely. So I'll leave a link to the site - https://www.creditdonkey.com/discount-travel-sites.html. Thanks to them, we were able to fly home on our last money.
