I’m very proud of myself and this diet. Despite the many distractions of  summer holidays, like wine with dinner some days, ‘loukoumades’  and cheese pies prepared by our sweet neighbor as well as  the occasional dessert, I’m still on track! Yesterday I weighed myself and was down by 2 pounds since the last time I stepped on the scales. Which was a long time ago, admittedly but, hey, being able to lose any amount of weight while on vacation is no small deal.
