Eighteen Week Weigh-In

I’m late, I’m late — for a very important date! My 18 week weigh-in fell on a day when I was happily hiking in Big Sur, California! But lucky me, when I checked the fitness center at the hotel that night I discovered a scale! Oh joy, joy, a nighttime weigh-in on an unfamiliar scale! Sounds like a recipe for disaster, but I was feeling daring. I rushed back up to my room and slipped on my bathing suit and then presented myself to this new scale for an official weigh in. Usually I’m very superstitious about weighing in (MUST be naked, first thing in the morning, after going potty and exhaling as hard as possible!) — but hey, when you are on vacation you gotta go with the flow, baby!

According to The Clement Monterey hotel fitness center scale, I’m 151 at night with my bathing suity on, which is a -2 pound loss for the week and puts me -56.8 pounds down for the 18-week period.

I’ll take it!

Here is me on Monday enjoying a hiking break with a view in Big Sur, my new favorite place to kick back and relax.

Oh, I wish I was a little baby fish!
Oh, I wish I was a little baby fish!
I’d go swimming in the nudie,
Without a bathing suity,
Oh, I wish I was a little baby fish!

    AUGHHH!! Insanely jealous!! Not just of the weight loss but of that fantastic view!! Nothing like that back here in FL, that’s for sure. My dad lives out there and I remember driving down the PCH with him and how GORGEOUS it is.

    Congrats on the weight loss… it’s hard to lose while on vacation but it seems like you are keeping active.

    Wow, the photo is breathtaking. I’m awestruck that you have been able to lose weight while on vacation. I’m going to keep you in my mind when we leave in 2 weeks!
