And I'm back! Lake Powell is a lot of fun, but EVERY year I come back a fatty McGee!!!! OMG. I swear I gained a good 10 lbs. Not to mention all the water weight. I look horrible! Tomorrows 5k will be a joke. I feel like I am carrying a ton of extra baggage. Grreeeeat.

I've decided that I don't make a great vacationer. I cannot sit still. Being stuck on a Lake Powell beach will a house boat drove me crazy. I couldn't go running. So I walked around on the beach a lot. I turn into a miserable girl. I probably drove my husband a little nuts.

This morning I woke up feeling like a beached whale. (Thank you water retention!) We didn't get in until 2 am last night. So I was trashed. I woke up at 8 am and ran 7 miles.Then I walked about 2 miles of cool down. What is up with all the smoke and fires?

I'm glad to be back. It's going to be a long month getting back in tip top shape. People, do not be like me and go to Lake Powell for a week and eat whatever you want! It doesn't work out that great after you are 30. FAT LARD.

Is Fatty McGee related to Super Sweaty Betty? I'm quite certain that you are not fat, not possible. Great commitment getting out this morning after such a late night. And yeah, welcome back to the smokehouse. It sucks.

BTW, my wife and I have another name for 'McGee'. Every time we see a woman with her boobs hanging out of her shirt one of us will comment about her being a "Boobs McGee". hahaha.

I'm glad to hear someone come out and almost say it. Vacations are often more trouble than they are worth. It's hard to train and eat right and when you get home after spending tons of $ you feel like you need a vacation from your vacation.

Yeah, I'm a scrooge.

Boobs Mcgee - it's an Anchorman reference right? Only it's not "boob". There's a person who is a regular at our gym that my wife uses that name for.

All I know is I'm fat righ now. I'm taking measurements today and we can compare them a month from today. You will all see what I'm talking about
