Dear Travellers

We live in such a wonderful world :) :) :) :) The places we have visited are extraordinarily beautiful and the people are so welcoming. Today we are in Palau, one of the Micronesia Islands. Word of the day is snorkelling - the coral reef is breathtaking. Lots of colourful fish and clear, calm waters. And you might even see a Palau turtle :D

On the beach this afternoon, there will be hula dancing lessons. Grass skirts and conch shell bras provided :D

Happy Travels everyone :D :) :D

6km for today. Been kind of slipping up both exercise and food wise so far this week. Hoping to turn it around today.

17.9 km today and I am not taking another step away from the bar, because I'm knackered. A 25 min run this morning (love C25k) and my long walk back from work this evening. Oh and a bit of snorkeling. Such beautiful fish, they came and nibbled at my fingers. Happy travelling everybody!

Hi Lizzy, Moreless & Everyone,

I did 3km of steps today - I think I've pulled my back slightly - didn't even do anything drastic, just noticed a twinge when getting out of bed this morning...!

Think I need to look for some back stretching exercises!

Hope everyone is having a great evening.

Lowcal :-)

Uh-oh, time for a massage, I think. I hope it gets better quickly.

Zest profile image
ZestHealthy BMI in reply to LessToLose

Yes, massage sounds like a good idea! :-)

moreless profile image
morelessAdministrator7 stone in reply to Zest

On no Lowcal! Poor you! I really feel for you :(

Stretching exercises sound like a great idea and for goodness sake, don't go overdoing it.

Take care, we can be a pair of crocks together ;)

Evening my kms today are 1.73 Had a lazy day, really enjoyed the grass skirt hula dancing, not too sure if I like the coconut bra !!

LessToLose profile image
LessToLose in reply to Marianne0915

I can't find coconuts big enough :(

moreless profile image
morelessAdministrator7 stone in reply to LessToLose

LOL! Me neither LtL, I'm leaning more towards water melons! :D

moreless profile image
morelessAdministrator7 stone in reply to Marianne0915

Good for you Marianne :)

It's all a bit scratchy, methinks :o

Marianne0915 profile image
Marianne0915 in reply to moreless

Scratchy indeed, I might try ordinary melons! Bit jealous about the water melon suggestion moreless.

moreless profile image
morelessAdministrator7 stone in reply to Marianne0915

Oh don't be jealous Marianne, it's just one of my fat storing places, when I get to target weight, I shall be looking at eggshells! :D

Marianne0915 profile image
Marianne0915 in reply to moreless

Ok, Ill dream about eggshells as well.

6.8 miles from me today. Walked the dogs but very cold today. Had a PT session that warmed me up. Love snorkelling.

morelessAdministrator7 stone in reply to henlady

Good show henlady :)

I love the beautiful turtle, I hope he doesn't end up in dinner, like yesterday's crabs!

I reached 19kms and decided to go around the block to get it over 20, so now my total is 20.39kms.

4.8km for me today. I pledge to achieve 10000 steps each day over half term- I've been struggling to do this over the last few weeks with work. Watch this space!

We certainly will Phil and keep our fingers crossed for you and shake our pom poms :)

You've been managing good numbers despite work though :)

Hello, I think I had posted up until Tuesday this week so now I am back from sunny Tenerife. Much easier to go out walking when the sun is shining. :-D

Wednesday - 7.6 km

Thursday - 11.47 km

Friday - 3 km

:-D

Thanks so much for the update 20voices, I hope you had a truly splendiferous holiday :)

in reply to moreless

Thank you. It has helped.

Not weighed myself yet, hoping that I at least haven't gained anymore weight. :-D

Legs still white, but I always use P20 which is great even on my fair easily burnt skin. :-D

Now to keep up the walking now I am back home. :-D

moreless profile image
morelessAdministrator7 stone in reply to

I'll keep my fingers crossed for your weigh-in, but normally any holiday weight gain is soon lost again :)

My legs are always white, because they never see the light of day! :D

Yup, keep up that walking, even if it requires an extra layer of clothing! :D

in reply to

Hi 20voices - how did you get on at the weekend? Any kms clocked up for Sat and Sun?

:) :)
