We're Back and The 17 Day Diet Update #4

Were are back from our wonderful "Up North" vacation.  The house we rented was spectacular and we couldn't have asked for better weather.  I promise to post pictures soon.

On the diet front, the first stage of the 17 Day Diet plan ran out on the first day of our vacation.  Krissy and I both suspended the dieting for the vacation week, but kept some of the concepts going including long walks on the beach.

I was pleased to come back and find out I was only about a half a pound from where I was before the vacation started.  I was able to maintain a 5 pound lose over the week.  This week, I'm moving on to the 2nd stage, although I have to admit I'm not being super rigid as I only want to lose a few pounds more.  I am keeping the exercise up and was able to jog about a mile today.  This has been a goal of mine and I feel pretty good that I can do it.
