Day 9-12 - change of scene

Miyako on the rope at 7am.

So I'm on an island (even smaller than the one I live on)in a great little villa right on the bay with a heap of friends. I came equipped with all the gear that I could carry for my workouts, and some ingredients to help "spice up" the foods I needed to make. Something in the back of my mind was telling me it's going to be a waste of time, due to past experiences when I take my workout gear on holidays...the villa has a kitchen, and everything I need to not make any excuses, there is a local store just down the road... And no restaurants anywhere nearby.
It's now the eve of me returning, and the meal we are cooking up tonight (although I made sure no one put any salt or dressing on the food)looks like the best I have had since we started on day 8.
Given the circumstances, I've managed to socialize with the friends in their post triathlon drinking expeditions, keep to my food diet, do all my workouts and fit in 2 days of diving as well. While it all sounds to plan, I did take a couple of glasses of red wine over the last 4 nights, avoiding beer completely!...partial success!
I am getting SO sick of veggies in the morning and lunch. Gotta work something out here, this is enough to drive me to the dark side, but getting adventurous and creative. Food and eating good food is a major part of my life I want to keep.

Will be interesting to weigh in tomorrow, see how things are progressing. Saw a photo of me sitting about with my shirt off and it continues to drive me harder to stick with the plan, while not locking myself in prison. A good warm up for next Monday where I go camping on even even a smaller island... That's going to be a test!

Decided to post my dinner up, advice to anyone, fresh coriander is great to add flavor to salads or veggies. I'll be getting lot more of that!!
