On Vacation and Doing Great!

Hi out there to anyone who is still reading. Wow, it's been almost 2 months since I last posted.

Hub and I have been on vacation since November 20.  We spent a week in Florida, then went on a weeklong Caribbean cruise, and are now spending a week in Puerto Rico.  I feel like I've been away from home forever.  (Actually I'm getting a bit homesick, mostly for B, I think.  I'm looking forward to HOME, going back to the office, and getting back on a "normal" schedule...although with the upcoming holidays it might not be totally normal for a few weeks)

So, in spite of this lengthy time away from home, I've been pretty much sticking to my IF window for eating.  Actually it's been easy, because Hub gets up late.  So we don't eat until at least noon; then as the day goes on, we usually are done with food by 7:30.  So the eating window has expanded a bit.  However, with all the traveling, we don't eat much in the afternoon.  So from a practical standpoint, the amount of food I'm eating is less than if I weren't sticking with a modified IF plan.

I am eating more carbs than usual...a few desserts, a few beers, etc.
My favorite beer so far...PITON from the island of Saint Lucia
The real PITONS and the namesake of the Beer
But the bottom line is...my pants still fit just fine; in fact they feel a bit looser than when we left.  Probably all the walking, and keeping busy. 

I'm very happy with that.

So, when I get home next week, I'll post an update with a few more photos. 

Right now we are off to the Rio Piedras Market in San Juan, PR.

Take care, everyone!

  5. All in all, your 2014 was good. Not everyone is blessed enough to experience all you've experienced and have the things you possess. Hope you'll have an even better 2015. :)
