Can I really call it a vacation?

In about a week we are going away to the Jersey shore with a few friends. I am buggin for a few reasons...Here's it goes. First, I have been working out and eating right for over a month now. Its been so hard and a struggle to stay motivated especially when my body hurts so bad from doing things I haven't done in such a long time. I had book club at my house last night...that in and of itself was a struggle! Everyone brings great things to eat.Someone brought homemade chocolate chip cookies with icecream in the middle.How does one resist that? I know the vacation is going to be just as hard if not harder. So many goodies to eat! Second, the drinking. Need I say more. Do you know how many calories one drink is! A huge part of me says...let go...drink and have a good time. I get that but if you know me...I will completely forget about working out and eating right and totally get off track. I'll be like "Chrissy who?" "NYSC where, what?". So, say I have the will and the power and don't drink like I was going to try last night at book club...You know eventually you will get the annoying are your pregnant stares and questions. "No, I am just a chubster right now and want to lose weight but thanks for asking." Third, school. My school only starts opening that same week at night. That is the only time I have to go and get the classroom ready, unpack everything and set up stuff. Again, if you know me, you know that I usually spend a few nights...okay maybe every night before school starts at school preparing for the kiddies. This causes great anxiety knowing that I can't do that because I will be away. The last week of school I have a class which will make it hard to get there.
So here is why I am stressing about my vacation. Silly to many, i am sure but hey this is how ANETWORKS!

**Disclaimer**Annette was really P O'd when she wrote this because this week she only lost .5 lbs. Big props to Chrissy who lost 2 this week. (bitch) JUST KIDDING...lol

This is going to be a tough week I am sure, but I will make it a priority to assist you in staying on the right track b/c you have been working so hard and I admire you for being so dedicated.
As for school, I understand the situation and we'll have to figure that one out.
And, as for those homemade ice cream sandwiches.....yummy.....
Thanks for saving me a couple.

Take a load off this week. Have fun. Come back to NYSC and school refreshed and newly motivated. You deserve it for working so hard and being so dedicated. I think even the pope goes out and gets loaded and stares at strippers for a few weeks every year. A few cheeseburgers and a couple of corona lights ain't gonna kill ya!!

Take that for what it's worth coming from your gym partner who's gonna be busting ass extra hard while you're gone ;-).
