It has been 18 days since I have checked in. In that time, I travelled to Portugal and truly I had little to no restraint! I ate delicious unfamiliar foods such as octopus, goosenecked barnacles and a variety of foods made differently than I am used to. And the desserts! Mmmmmm! Very good and much variety!
Yesterday was my first day at home and it was time to step on the scale and see what the damage was. I had gained 9.2 pounds. I ate carefully and well yesterday while still overshooting my usual window of calories by 80 calories. This morning I lost and now the damage is 7.6 pounds up. I don't expect the rest to come off as easily as yesterday's!
I did have to face that I had some limitations on this trip. My right leg is a bit 'wonky' in that it will unexpectedly start to buckle every once in a while especially if the terrain is challenging (stairs, up or down hill). I will be getting to work on that because I don't want to feel like I can't do things because of it. Basically I will need to strengthen my thigh muscles and ankles/calves.
We had a fabulous time - my daughter, my grandchildren (ages 16 & 19) and myself. Besides eating interesting and amazing things we also went to a number of outdoor markets, kayaked (not the plan but couldn't reverse an error in the booking so went with it! Managed to burn my legs pretty good), visited an Oceanarium, walked through old sections of various towns, gondola boat ride, a tile workshop, a fabulous bookstore (looked like something out of Harry Potter!),TukTuk tour in Sintra, swam in the ocean, museums, and my daughter and granddaughter scaled some cliffs and jumped into the ocean (Daughter did it twice and granddaughter did it 7 times - all different spots) We did a lot of driving from the North to the South of Portugal. Beau1tiful country!
Next week is going to be relatively quiet so I will be able to focus on my self-care more.
