And no, this not about making sure your luggage does not exceed the airline limits!
Crete
I am just back from a wonderful week on the island of Crete. Lots of lazing about, wonderful fresh food and a couple (!) of gin and tonics. Feeling very rested but my jeans are feeling a bit tight. I have gained 3 lbs.
I could just ignore it. It’s only a few pounds and now I am back at home and in my routine that weight could just disappear. But I know that is not a good idea. If I don’t take action those pounds could just stay there and become part of my new normal weight. The next thing you know, I will need to buy larger jeans just to feel comfortable.
It is much better to do something about it straight away. Starting today I will:
- Get back into my morning exercise routine
- Cut refined carbohydrates out of my diet such as white bread, cakes and biscuit
- Eat more vegetables
- Only have a glass of alcohol at the weekend
- Drink more water
So if you are going away on holiday soon, have a lovely time. If you put on a few pounds, take action to lose them as soon as you get home. You don’t want that bulge to be your holiday souvenir!
