Feeling Better Already...

Hi Everyone!!
I'm going on a cruise, leaving on 12/24 (yay!) and I REFUSE to feel uncomfortable while I'm there. I really want to enjoy myself, not worry about how terrible I look in a bathing suit. I wore a bikini ONCE this summer and felt so gross. I wore shorts over it and jumped in the water immediately so no one would see me. I do NOT want to feel that way while on the cruise.
I was doing well, had lost 5 lbs in the past couple of weeks, then last weekend happened. Dan's birthday dinners and lots of food, beer, and unhealthy snacking. Plus I ran the 5k on Sunday so I totally binged afterwards, thinking I "deserved" it, although all it did was make me feel like crap.
So I gained 4 of the 5 lbs back just this past weekend (if that's possible). I am just starting to feel better today, considering my binge from Sunday carried on Monday and Tuesday.... I cleaned out my fridge and pantry and got rid of all the crap.
My goal is to lose 16 lbs by the end of the contest. At that point I will be at a comfortable weight and not be totally embarrassed on the cruise.
Looking forward to getting focused and back on track!
