My first banded holiday

So the family and I are back from Thanksgiving in New Hampshire (where I grew up and my family still lives). We had a great mini vacation/holiday.

Thanksgiving morning we got up early for the Turkey Trot 5k. My husband, sister/her boyfriend, and I all did the race. This was my second race, I did it last year. My time last year was 55 minutes, this year I did it in 50 minutes!

At Thanksgiving "dinner" I had a small plate, only one serving, and no roll. Later we had dessert at my aunts house, I had little bits of things but I left feeling so good about myself. I wasn't over stuffed, I was satisfied and not feeling deprived at all!

Current weight: 275 :)

What is going on here

So live here is pretty boring. I am trying to eat right, eat little portions and not snack. I'm also trying to get enough water in and workout everyday.
On an average week, I can workout 3 times at the gym, 1 time at aqua aerobics and the other 3 days I try to walk, ride my bike or use the elliptical.
I also try and cook ever day, but with my smaller portions we are having a lot of leftovers and my husband can't eat them all, so some nights we have left overs for dinner.

I'm weight somewhere between 279 and 277. Depends on the day :) I'm so happy with my weight loss!!!
