    Thanks for the support luluforfitness. I like the idea that I should think about maintaining instead of losing. I look forward to this trip every year. We do a lot of walking while we are touring, so perhaps I can lose weight if I watch the volume of food I eat. This year we are in an area where there are great bike trails, so I will try that as well.

    Successes/struggles this week: I bought some running shoes this weekend so as to encourage myself to start walking this week and start Couch to 5k next week, on July 13th. Also got strawberries and oranges, maybe I won't be jonesing for something chocolaty all the time.

    Good for you! Walking is a wonderful way burn both calories and stress!!! I have done the Couch to 5K app and it works really well. Sending positive walking/running energy your way!

    Are you getting enough to eat during the day, with lots of "good fats?" I like the European philosophy on eating: Eat like a King for breakfast, a Prince for lunch, and a Pauper for dinner.

    A hearty veggie soup can be a great "Pauper" dinner!
