Because you have to come back from vacation sometime
Part sun-filled adventure, part deep dark threat to one’s diet: the unexpected last minute vacation.
So, I’ve been away from home and away from training for a week. On vacation. With friends. I know it’s sounding worse and worse for the diet, but it actually wasn’t that bad. I made good on my promise to Terri that I would take my workout clothes, and also actually put them on and (gasp) worked out twice while I was away. It wasn’t the thought of all that refreshing exercise (because I just don’t have thoughts like that, sadly), but rather the thought of how much harder it would be to get back to working out if I took the whole week off from it. I was pretty careful with my diet as well, and surprise, the vacation was still fantastic. Weird. Go figure. The best part? The numbers on the scale actually came down a bit! Yeah, so I’m starting to think that maybe there’s something to this whole healthy eating and exercise thing…
