Some challenges this month. A small one on Friday when we meet friends for lunch in Glasgow. Then later this month we are spending 3 nights in Edinburgh. Otherwise, no excuses not to stay on track.

Really having a very hard time staying on track. And now I'm feeling fat. I'm embarrassed at the gym with my tight, stretchy workout clothes because the roll around my middle has gotten very big. I'm not going to buy a bigger top though - that would be giving in. I'll just have to get rid of the roll!

Not having a great day. Worked on my US taxes for 2013 as I still have to file because I'm still a citizen. Also still have US income. Giving me major headaches this year because of US investments, but I think I finally got it figured out although I'm confused by which forms to use. As I was doing this my computer started being very weird (again) and hubby had to sit down and work on it for about 3 hours.
Good thing I didn't have any really bad foods to eat. All I managed to come up with was toast with set honey on it. The honey is high cal though.
Planned menu:
TOTAL: probably about 1400+ due to the honey
I emailed the gym I wanted to join when we spend 2 months in Thailand next winter. It's mostly classes and barbells and running outdoors although they do have spin bikes and dumbbells. The reply I got back sounded like it wasn't the right place for me. And all the other gyms are a much farther distance and more difficult to get to, even though we'll have a car.
So I'm going to use the fitness centre at the hotel we stayed at this year. It's probably the smallest gym I've seen - 1 treadmill, 1 bike, 1 elliptical, and a full set of dumbbells. Nothing else. But it's a fairly short walk from where we'll be staying and I'm more likely to go 3 times a week. It's $30/month.

My taxes give me a major headache as I'm getting pensions from both countries. Weird thing is I have to claim my UK pension on my US taxes, and my SS on my UK taxes. The US/UK have tax agreements with each other which is why it's done that way.
Have not been good and can't seem to get really motivated. I should be motivated - most of my clothes have gotten tight. And now we've been invited to a wedding May 2nd of one of hubby's cousins. I'll need to fit into the dress which I wore to the wedding in Thailand (and was a bit too tight!)

Enjoyed our dinner last night at our friends' house. They invited a couple we'd never met and we all enjoyed chatting so much we didn't leave until 1.30am! All of us are retired except the hostess and she went to bed about midnight as she gets up early for a long trip to work. Chose a small wine glass so it was harder to have too much when the hostess repeatedly wanted to fill it up. Also a tin of a variety of good biscuits (cookies) kept being put in my face! 
Feeling too tired to go to the gym today. Intended to do my strength training at home today, but don't know if that will happen. If not, I'll do it tomorrow plus some cardio.
Did a very thorough job on our bedroom yesterday - it's about 95% dust free now, even the drapes, under the bed, top of wardrobe, etc. Guess I'll do every room now before it gets nice out and I want to go outside. First day of spring is tomorrow (they don't use the solstice to define the seasons as they do in the US).

Will get back to the gym tomorrow. Today I'll start on deep cleaning the house. Doing the master bedroom today. I would be back to behaving myself after my indulgent birthday yesterday, but our friends have invited us to dinner. So tomorrow I'll be back on track.
Hope everyone is doing well!

Well, weather was really bad this morning - rainy and windy - and the forecast was also bad. We feared the ferries could be cancelled so didn't go to Glasgow. Now it's turned sunny but it's too late. Oh well. I went with my original plan and went into town to do a little shopping and have a bacon roll and donut at the bakery. Going to have a couple of strawberry daiquiris tonight and tomorrow night we go to friends' house for curry, wine, dessert.
No workout today.
It's good being 62 - more pensions to spend on world travel!! 
Scale is down. 
Went to the gym again today as I'll be skipping it tomorrow. Hubby is taking me into Glasgow for lunch and a movie for my birthday.
Just wanted to see if the photo uploader was working. This is one of the beaches in Thailand earlier this month.

Husband has gone into Glasgow to visit uncle in the hospital. They haven't found a nursing home for him yet. Things were delayed while some of us were away in Thailand and another in Spain.
Hubby usually comes back about 8.30pm so he's going to have leftover curry that I'd frozen and I'll make some rice. I'm having a Quorn pie (love them but I could easily eat 2!)

Oh I miss Edinburgh! Hope you're having a great day so far :)
Thanks, hope you are as well.
