Howdy all. I'm back from a couple of weeks on vacation. I'm super pleased with my weight at the moment. My goal was to maintain my weight while away from home. I didn't pay any attention to macros at all. I just watched calories-in vs calories-out and worked to equalize them as closely as possible. The results were good. I am .2 lbs lighter at the end of vacation then I was when I left. That's about as close to true maintenance as I can ever hope for. My body-fat is at 18% which is better than I hoped for coming out of tax season and a long vacation.
The vacation was awesome. Got to spend it at my Son and Daughter-in-law's home with my two youngest grandchildren. We toured Fort Sumter, the Yorktown, a submarine and a destroyer. Visited the Magnolia Plantation, went to the beach a couple of times and played golf in Myrtle Beach. Went on a 1,000 foot zip line over a man-made lake, and did an hour on a 40' tall ropes obstacle course. I was able to take an 18 - 21 mile bike ride every day, and did a lot of walking, which is why I think I was able to maintain while away.
I messed up my back digging a ditch the week before leaving for vacation. It is improving slowly, but is still not healed completely, so I'm planning on taking it easy until after the 29th of May. That will be the one-year anniversary of this diet and exercise sea-change, and by then I'm hoping that my back will be 100% again. Until then, I'll just keep walking and doing light workouts. I'm also starting Yoga classes on Saturday mornings. These are balance and flex yoga exercises, which is just what I need.
I plan to start hitting the program a bit harder after the first of June, although, June will be a big travel month. I have another vacation planned for early June which will be a challenge. I'll be flying to my wife's family reunion in Arizona, leaving her in Phoenix, picking up a Jeep to drive to the mountains to stay at my best friend's cattle ranch for a week or so before driving to the Mountains of New Mexico to pick up my wife, daughter and granddaughter. We'll leave the jeep in New Mexico and drive a truck and horse trailer back to Texas. There will be a lot of days on the road without much opportunity for working out. Besides which, when I'm with my best friend, we tend to imbibe a few beers (and then a few more). A week after that trip, I head to Dallas/Fort Worth for business meetings. The good thing about that trip is that the resort we stay at for the meetings has a monstrous fitness center next door that we get access to. So working out will be easy there.
From the first of July until mid-September, it will just be a lot of diet and exercise, though. I have to be in top shape by then for six weeks of running elk hunting camps in the mountains of New Mexico. I really don't want to try packing the hind quarter of an elk out if I'm not in top shape. So I have a real impetus to hit the training regimen hard this summer.
Well that's what's happening out this way. I hope all of y'all have a wonderful rest of your Thursday and that your weekend is fun and restful.
