I am weighing in today simply because I am leaving to go to the city and will board the airplane tomorrow. I will not be traveling with a scale. I will be recording to the best of my ability what I eat each day. I find that kind of accountability keeps me more aware.
My general plan is all about seafood. In Portugal seafood is fresh and plentiful. Seems like a good idea! I also know that I will be sampling the desserts. I do find desserts in Europe tend not to be so sweet which will help!
I also know that we will be walking a lot. This, however, isn't necessarily a weight loss situation. I did 5.5 hours of dragging deadfall out of my yard area - yes my yard is that big and I have a lot of poplar which dies often! My reward? A two pound weight gain that it took two days to go away! This sort of thing is often my experience. My sister comes across the same thing. One summer she walked the El Comino about 20 km/day for 12 days. She did not lose weight! Walking is good for muscles and toning and cardio. Not weight loss!
Next weigh in is May 18!
