July 4th weekend coming up..for many it is exit stage left for a long weekend at the beach..for others it is neighorhood barbeques...
No matter what are the plans, inevitably they will include events with high-caloric food sources available including alcohol, desserts etc.
You have/are working very hard to get that weight down and become healthier and happier. It is amazingly how easy it is to take a 3 day weekend and really derail your efforts. Watching fireworks and enjoying the love of your friends and family does not necessitate ingesting lots of calories. Learning how to celebrate an occasion and have fun from the need to ingest high caloric food sources is a necessary component of long term weight loss success.
If you do notice after a weekend that the weight has increased, then have a definitive plan as to how you will work very hard the next weeks to get back on track.. Obviously if you need our help we are here for you.

I definitely am going to make a concerted effort to enjoy the holiday not the holiday food! I'm thinking of it as my own Independence Day (weekend!) from fattening food! :) I think the few bits of something bad would be not worth the guilt later...
