Hola! i is back!

Hello long time no blog, valid excuse this time and its because i've been in the very lovely Lanzarote.

I had planned to day a blow by blow day by day holiday account but now i'm how i realise how boring its one of those you had to been there things.

so the edited highlight

It rained! despite being on the 1st floor (Americans read that as 2nd floor) our aprtment flooded, thank god for spare beach towels. we had a couple of nice bus trips out one to Peurto del Carmen -  still don't like it to me it looks like Blackpool on a really really bad day! But each to their own i know lots of people who love it. the good points of PDC is a the shopping centre and i got a very nice bag for a bargain price in Zara €7.99 instead of €24.99 Bargain! :0)
We also went to the Capital Aricefe (sp) i love it there would be highly tempted to stay there next time i went, nice beach, a Zara and 2 Enquentros what more could i want oh good Coffee they have that as well.

Meals were very nice, we had a few steaks, wraps, pork chops, chicken kebabs, chicken portions, these are what we ate out. In the Apartment we took Low Low Cheese slices, bought €1 packs of ham and some Bimbo slimmers bread 8% fibre we did have some of the delish fresh baked white loaves but it was a holiday! we also had sugar free OJ. since being on SW i don't drink OJ but on holiday its a must, we also got some sugar free Sangria mix that already has lemonade in it but add more 7up free and slices of frozen oranges (another bargain €0.68 per KG) it was roughly €0.10 per orange and they billed them as just for juicing but they were really nice Tesco Finest quality at least!

the weather did improve over our last few days and i feel like i have quite a nice colour.

Don't get me wrong it wasn't constant rain we did have some sunbathing time and the weather was a lot nicer than at home the lowest temp was prob about 12degrees C, so a lot warmer than at home.

OK i need to sort out my photos and i have blog posts without photos but in the interst of saving time i think this will have to be a post i hate.

I gained 3lbs on holiday, i'm not too worried i had my normal Monday bloat and i think that looking back what i ate (and drunk) on holiday its not too bad considering.

Today i went to help me paint her new flat 5 hours of white emulsionning must be good for you, will be aching tomorrow.

we were all talking about a girlie holiday to celebrate mine and Nats 30th we think we are going to have to put it back til the last week of june but i've now realised we'll miss another friends 30th but she won't be able to come as its term time and she's a teacher bummer! we are determined to get in shape and be fit by then  i think they are going to go down the gym route and if i get a job soon i will be following them (and pass my driving test so i can get to the gym)

Anyone got any tips for staying on track?
