We had a great weekend in Ocracoke. It is a great place to just get away and relax, especially this time of year since there is really no one else there.

Saturday we rode bikes around the island and took a good walk on the beach.

I didn’t eat too bad, even though Howard’s Pub is a real temptation (Howard’s hush puppies are awesome). We did eat at Howard’s both nights (it’s the only thing open this time of year) but we did not over do it. I had a fish sandwich on Friday night and a couple of crab cakes on Saturday.

We carried some healthy snacks with us to keep us from going to the convience store and buying a bunch of junk. Some 100 calorie oreo cookie packs, a few oranges, bottled water, and diet pepsi. When we don’t have snacks with us we end up at the general store buying bags of chocolate dounuts. I am digging the oranges and I am almost out, need to stop and pick up some more.
Now it’s back to work and back to the routine. Weighed in this morning and I am still holding steady at 229 lbs. I still have a long way to go but I will get there.
