Earthlady's Journal, 05 April 2013

No weigh-in this morning as I'm not at home.

I went a little over the planned calories yesterday to finish the day on 750 calories and these next few days will see me eating much differently from usual.

I'm in Ankara staying with my sister-in-law. No filter coffee, no fruit and yooghurt for breakfast :( I guess I could have been a primadonna type and brought those things with me, but I figured they must have SOME fruit in the house! I had Turkish coffee at breakfast; it gives the caffeine hit but I can't say I love it. And I ate 4 dried apricots and a sesame bread ring for breakfast - different!

Still, it's good to be here! A long weekend, MiL looking well after two major surgeries two weeks ago and clearly very pleased to see us. And of course the biggest bonus is seeing my youngest daughter and having the chance to visit her school and speak to her teachers - this is the first time I've been able to come since she started school here last September.

So, I'll try to record my food to keep track of calories but I won't worry too much about it - just try to keep to healthy choices wherever possible. Then I'll have my fast day as usual on Monday when I'm back into routine, and maybe record a weigh-in on Tuesday, or maybe leave it until Friday, skipping a week.

I'm not too worried about it as I've reached goal weight so I'm maintaining anyway, but it will be very interesting to see the effect of a complete break from my usual routine.

Enjoy your time away. Even if you do go off track, you know you won't let it take over. Good job on the maintenance mode :-)
