Tues:
We did a 4 hour longboat trip which included a stop for snorkeling, then swimming, then lunch. I seriously indulged. A beer on one of the islands, then a beer with lunch, then 2 G & T's with dinner! Oh well...decided to stop making rules for myself as I'm just stressing myself out. I don't want this to dominate our holiday.

The walk to & from the restaurant = awesome! Talk about healthy!
Way to go Granny. You live a healthy lifestyle.
Scale is wacko. Has me more than 2 lbs less than yesterday morning. Not complaining though. I'll be getting on the scale every single day.
We went on a bike ride to get dinner last night. Not really far but involved going up 2 hills.
Going out in the kayak shortly when the sun isn't so high.
Menu:
Saturday here in Thailand.
Uh oh. Got on the scale. Was ill yesterday and hubby brought me back a treat after he went out for dinner - a pancake filled with banana and nuttella and fried. High cal and really yummy. But I need to catch this now. I was doing really well then got carried away.
No treats or alcohol for at least 2 weeks. Extra gym workouts as well as bike rides, walks and kayaking.

Out of sync here since I'm 12 hours ahead of EST in the US.
Went to the party last night for our community. Tons of food, not just snacks but a big buffet. Also beer, wine and whisky. Hubby and I didn't know this so had dinner first. I only remember eating cake, cashews, one spicy sausage, chicken soup. Hubby also had the same things. But Im the one who became ill. 2am. Serious intenstinal distress, to put it nicely. Up and down until about 4. Obviously did not go the gym this morning.
Getting better now but still won't go out to dinner. So hubby went out for lunch alone and will also go to dinner alone.
I've been snacking here, no high fibre. toast, yogurt, cheddar on crackers, peanut butter on toast.
Hope to be back to normal so I can go to the gym tomorrow.
Progress as of today: 24 lbs lost so far, only 8 lbs to go!
It's Thursday here.
Did an extra gym day.
A couple were hogging 2 of the 3 cardio machines for too long. So I did 20 mins on the treadmill, then 15 mins intervals on the elliptical. My intentions were 15 mins on each machine. Doing my regular workouts MWF and at least two days a week extra for a while for extra cardio.
Long bike ride today. A few steep hills.
Menu:
Tomorrow: I will behave until I get below 140 lbs!!
Progress as of today: 24 lbs lost so far, only 8 lbs to go!
Nice meals. Love those Stir Frys!
Excellent workouts, too.
Good to be proactive and get in the cardio however you can while at the gym - machine hoggers are the worst!
Wasn't good yesterday as I felt I deserved extra beer for all the hot exercise. Should have skipped beer number 2 and 3! I can feel where I've gained some back so need to catch it right now! Going to try hard to resist having any treats or alcohol until I get under 140. Making an except for New Year's Eve party though. Going to do extra gym days where I do just cardio and no muscle work.

but...I guess for short-term, cardio burns more calories.
Good idea on stopping most treats until you reach a certain weight. VERY smart.
Your plan is my plan for rewards after weightloss - I am thinking, after my sisters wedding, that i'm having two giant pizza slices for lunch!
Not going near the scale for a while. Maybe new year's day.
Long bike ride which included some hills and several hills that were so steep we had to walk our bikes up them. All this in hot sun and humidity. Peeled off my clothes when we got home and had to struggle to get my bikini on my sweaty body so I could jump in the pool.
Menu:
Glass noodle soup with pork sounds good especially on a day after a ride - replace some of the lost sodium from all the sweating...good stuff. seaweed too - great stuff!
have a wonderful day! healthy eats today.
Uh oh, another day of decadence, well...somewhat decadent. Two gin and tonics with a late lunch.
I have a list of treats for when I deserve it - like when I get below 140. Mango and sticky rice, Thai chocolate, deep fried pancake filled with banana and nutella, some kind of ice cream sundae.

14 mile bike ride today including a steep hill. Also walked up a very steep hill to visit a temple. All while it was sunny and hot. So I felt I deserved some rewards, but probably over-rewarded myself.
