Sad panda!! We had a blast, it was GREAT being off the grid for a few days. I missed my munchkin like crazy, but it was definitely worth it to remind me that I’m more than just a mom 🙂 The beach was great, I didn’t get too sunburned, and now I’ve got a great head start on my summer tan lol.
Hubs and I did decently well sticking to low carb eating, but I was highly disappointed with the lack of variety in our food options. Suffice it to say my vegetables every day were a salad and green beans. The worst part was the drive there and back (an 18 hour drive, excluding stops) because the couple we went with were…not insensitive to our dietary preferences, per se…but they def didn’t make it easy on us. The trip down, I packed us a healthy lunch, and had breakfast for dinner that night once we stopped, but on the way back we didn’t have the luxury of packing snacks or anything. So we ate lots of bunless cheeseburgers…and splurged on a thin crust pizza for dinner. I didn’t even enjoy it!! 😥
We splurged a bit on the boat as well…got pretty drunk one night and ordered room service, and decided to give no fucks since we had tried really hard to behave up to that point. It was, again…slightly disappointing. The pizza (again with the pizza lol) was gross and under cooked, and the cheesecake was cloyingly sweet. *sigh*
I haven’t been brave enough to get on the scale yet, I’m saving that for tomorrow on my normal weigh in day. I’m positive I’ll be up, just not sure how far. Hubby kept his gain to only 3 pounds, super proud of him!! As much swimming and walking as we did, you’d think we would have been ok but oh well. Fingers crossed for me being less than five pounds up lol.
I have been seriously slacking on my water lately. I drank a decent amount on the trip, but it definitely was not what I drank the most of. So that’s my goal for this week. Dump all the other drinks except my morning coffee and really push the water. After this weekend, hubby and I are going to redo the guns, buns, and abs challenge. I don’t want to be super sore for the holiday weekend lol, that’s the only reason we’re waiting.
Anyway, enough of my rambling. I’ll be back to my normal, boring old self after today lol. I’ll have to post a couple pics after I get them uploaded and edited though. I have one of the Miami skyline that I am in love with!
Also, I’m going to attempt low carb cupcakes this week…wish me luck!
Hope you’re all doing well out there!
