Goal Weight for October: 5 pounds

Vacation did me in, just didn't have the will power at Shrimpfest.  This rekindled my taste for spicy, fried foods and an incease in amounts eaten each day. Soooo hard to get back on track..... But needed to do something now at a 5 pound gain rather than at a 20 pound gain which usually happens!  I will eat in moderation, I will eat sensibly, I don't have to finish the entire bag of whatever.......
