Well Month 4 has ambled by, and a shock discovery is that I'm not as tall as I thought I was, seems an inch can make a lot of difference as I won't be classed as overweight until 14 stone 7lb, at present I'm 15 stone 2lb, so a bit away from being classed overweight rather than obese. I could allow this set back to get me down, but as I'm on holiday with my Family I have other concerns, the biggest one is how to stay on track while on holiday. .
Before now I've not talked about the plan, there is nothing grand about it, in fact it's so simple it's more of a list really. In the past my wife and I have suspended previous diets when we have gone on holiday, but this time we decided to see if we could keep up with the diet on holiday, and save ourselves the pain of having to restart whilst dealing with post holiday blues. I've thought a lot about when I go off track with my eating, those moments tend to be when I don't know what I'm going to be eating and I have to make a snap decision. This often leads to bad choices. So in the last week of the month I plan what to eat for the month ahead, this sounds like a nightmare task, but actually it's quite exciting, and not to mention essential when you are on holiday.
This is a time when temptation can come to call and knock you back, but planning ahead can prevent any mishaps especially if your holiday is self catering. I'll keep you posted on how we get along
