I am back from vacation and heading out to my next one – two days of learning to white water canoe in advance of a canoeing trip late August. I will take these two days to get back on track – eat healthy at the camp (I think the food offering is pretty basic so I don’t think I will over eat/snack too much) and exercise on the water.

It is easy to park paying attention to weight when on vacation – I have to work on that and the focus I need everyday to make small choices that are on the right track. This is what concerns me in early retirement – feeling like I am on vacation and dropping focus. These last few days have not been a focus and have to tweak that.

I am worried that I will weigh myself this week and see all progress gone -in facr I am sure that will be the case – I need to not give up. I also need to navigate weekends with friends – I have a few of these coming up which generally involves eating and drinking- need to then double down and focus what I can control and ensuring activity during that time.
