Metabolic Miracle

So I knew I was going to gain weight in Hawaii - all those alcohol calories have to go somewhere (see below). But thanks to a commitment to exercise daily on my vacation, the scale only tipped a few extra pounds the day I came home.

And to my delight and surprise, as of this morning, I'm already back to where I started before Hawaii. This working out regularly and eating healthy thing has done wonders for my metabolism and I can just feel the energy!

One thing I learned last year...never let someone else dictate your happiness. Since I know I'm an emotional eater, I have to be hyper-aware of how I let situations and people affect me.

And if you're in a crappy mood, go for a walk instead of reaching for a cookie!
