JamaicaBoundNL's Journal, 22 April 2016

Well, back to the land of accountability, and 20" of snow! Oh yes. We had a blizzard the day before we got back. Not what you want to be coming home to after 11 days in Jamaica. But, we have a wonderful neighbour who dug us out after the storm.

I spent my days in a lounger reading Stephen King. I actually made it to the gym twice, then sand-gravity kicked in. I didn't over-eat at the buffet, the served meals were of a very nice portion size, and I didn't eat dessert (never do). Did I drink beer? Yes. Did I drink sugary drinks? Yup, but only the last couple of days (discovered a drink called Amaretto Sour). Did I drink wine? You bet. Did I over-indulge in food and drink? Nope. Did I gain weight? Oh yes - 8.2 pounds (much better than last year's 12 pounds). Unfortunately, sodium is high on the menu which caused me to retain fluids (and my ankles know it). I'm not recording a weigh-in until Sunday, my usual day, so that my body can ditch the fluid and get over the travel.

One bonus for this trip was that I did not injure myself! This is the first time in about 5 years running. I guess physio is really paying off.

While I thoroughly enjoyed my vacation, I'm ready to get back to work, get moving, and get my calories back on track. In other words, getting back to my normal life.

Welcome back - it will be an interesting weigh in. No worries though, ya gotta do, what ya gotta do on vacation. That's what makes them worth it!

I'm down 1 pound from yesterday so I'm hopeful. ☺ Just glad I do it once a year only.
