Back from vacation and back on the bandwagon!

Well, I just got back from vacation in Athens, Greece and Barcelona, Spain. It was fabulous! I had a great time seeing all the sites, shopping, and of course, indulging in TONS of delicious food and fancy drinks! I exercised in my hotel room only 4 out of the 14 days we were away, ooops! We walked everywhere at least. I found it very difficult to eat healthy. I think that while we were in Greece, I probably ate my weight in olive oil...
Anyway, now I am back and getting into my daily exercise routines and heading back to work (yuck!). I went to the gym Monday and did my weight training and 50minutes of cardio. Whoa was I ever sore yesterday! Today, is weight training day again so I am off to the gym later this afternoon. I am actually finding the exercise part easy to get back into...It's the eating part that is the most difficult. I am finding that I feel hungry all the time, I guess because my body is used to eating more now after 2 weeks of indulging. I am trying to find ways to distract myself, but I am struggling. I found this article so I'll give it a try... http://www.womenshealthmag.com/weight-loss/appetite-control
Anyway, the fall weather is gorgeous! I find it so motivating to get outside!

Breakfast today started with a fruit and protein shake with almonds and low-fat yogurt.
and of course, always coffee. But I skipped the sweetener and used natural honey instead.
