No, I did not fall off the wagon....
... though I did not record my meals nor did I hit the scale. Either I am where I was or I lost some. For sure I did not gain any weight - clothes prove it(and my daughter asked me yesterday if I lost weight).

I had a wonderful time with my daughter from Germany.She came over with her little girl, turning 2 on Sunday, followed by her husband. First flight, transatlantic and all by herself. But she did it, it worked out.
She stayed with my other daughter and her family for a while, the other grandchild will turn 2 in October, exactly 4 weeks after the first one.

It was so wonderful seeing those two girls together, how they interacted, cared about each other. They only met on Skype so far.It was just amazing. And of course, I was all smiles :-))))

Of course there was no time to log food. But I stayed pretty much on track. Well, there was a biscuit once and a slice of cheese cake but I got over it and did not fall back into old patterns.

Since my daughter from Germany lives low carb as much as possible it was not sooo difficult. She had a few problems since she used to be a food junkie while living in the US and can't get that stuff in Germany, or it is really, really expensive. Well, she had to have some of it. But overall she did very well too. She even brought some potato fiber over and showed me how she makes bread with it. I have to say, it was the closest to bread I have eaten so far. Have on my mind to make it all week long but no time for it.

That brings me to the next thing. Busy working. Fortunately the stress I had for the last year subsided. We (I) have a new boss! I don't know how he does it but the workload increased and the stress became less. Works for me. A little overtime here and there...I need it anyway since I am planning to go to Germany for Christmas. Flight is booked already.

So, I made a beginning with writing here , hopefully soon I will be able to find my rhythm with logging food as well. And, I charged my fit-bit. We have a fall program coming up at work. Step challenge and a few other things. Participation lowers insurance cost - not bad at all!
