I worked an 11 hour day today so am totally knackered! Had really good whales though, one spy hopped all around the boat for ages and came so close! It's the closest I've ever been to a whale, I was right on the back step of the boat and must have been about 2 metres away!! So cool! Didn't take any pics; I wanted to enjoy the moment and lap up every second.
On another bright note, I avoided bread all day! Oats for brekky; bean salad, fruits, some crackers and a cereal bar during the day and a chickpea burger with sweet potato 'fries' and fried onion, mushrooms & tomatoes for dinner. I did crack the nut ban though (no pun intended) and help myself to some roasted cashews after dinner...seems I can't give something up without falling back into past bad habits. Ah well.
I'm going to Bali either in September or October so once I've booked flights that will be my motivation to really go for it - cutting all the crap out and ramping up my efforts at the gym, maybe introduce some proper strength training as yoga probably isn't enough on its own. I've learnt in the past couple of weeks that vegan definitely doesn't equal healthy! Not by a long shot. You can still eat bread, pasta, plain crisps, pretzels, some biscuits, dark chocolate, golden & maple syrup, nuts, BBQ sauce, ketchup...etc.
Bali in a couple of months! I'm also planning on going to Noosa at the beginning of October and hopefully Byron Bay or Port Douglas just before I fly home :) better start saving...
