LaraStar's Journal, 30 Aug 11

Went to another wedding this weekend. I got lots of compliments, mainly from people who last saw me when I was over 15 lbs heavier. Of course there was plenty of food and alcohol but it was my indulgence day anyway. And I have been very good since coming back. I am almost back to my weight from last Saturday. I will post my weight when I am below the previous one, hopefully later this week. I know this is cheating but I find even a small gain disheartening. I admire the honesty of some people on here.
Also my cold has gone, so I can go back to my exercise program.

We are going to Southeast Asia next week. I am very excited but also slightly apprehensive about not tracking or weighing in. I will watch my portion sizes and try to stick to lowish carbs,this might be difficult with all the rice and noodle dishes around. My biggest downfall on holiday is often the breakfast buffet. If there is fruit and nice bread, I find it very hard to just eat eggs and low carb stuff. But I must not let food obsession spoil my trip!

Look at you. You're just the wedding party girl. Congrats on the compliments and and weight maintenance. Southeast Asia should be amazing. I don't think you'll have any problem at all with no tracking or weighing in. You know what to do, Lara Star! Most of all have a phenomenal time (and bring pictures).

Fantastic that people are noticing and giving you compliments. Remembering that when you are away, should keep you on track :-)

I think the trick is to keep thinking about my achievements and not falling back into old eating habits. This is difficult when there is nice exotic food on offer and I am not accountable for the calories. I need to prepare a pep talk to myself and remind me of it everyday. Also it will be very hot, that usually reduces my appetite. And there will be lots of walking. I think I'll be ok.
