Wow, it seems that a lot has happened in the past months and the time to write something has just passed me by. It has been really crazy with all the travels and the moving. Feels like my mini-challenge for this month will be to keep up the writing while on vacation. ^^
Though, the good news is that I have not given up on it! Not yet. It's not over yet!
So to quickly bring you guys up to speed, this is the current situation:
It did stop there for a while during April because of the vacation time.
When you're in a tourist resort, healthy food is not always readily available, so it turned out to be a lot more bread during that month.
At the same time, the appetite increased due to the heavy exercise, that is Snowboarding.
Then also, at the same time, I must admit that I did give into some of the sweeter things in life, as I did visit home - where all the memories took over and I gave in to nostalgia as it was a short trip.
More details will be added retrospectively, as I had some posts written up but not yet published.

End of May: 121 kg
In May, I returned to Ireland, to an apartement of a friend where I was temporarily staying.
With this, I also returned to my gym routine.
Though at this point, I decided to make a small alternation to my diet - just to see where that would take me.
I started looking into how much calories I eat per day.
Sure, it may make it slightly less fun - but at the same time I decided to loosen the rules on carbs and sugars.
Thus, for the whole month, I chose to count calories and see how I would feel by that. It was normally not a problem to keep the numbers under 2000. Coupled up with the workout, this seems to have gotten very effective.
Though more details on this will also appear in an upcoming post over the next few days. ^^
In the end, this is looking quite good so far. According to my calculations, I was supposed to be at 120.5 kg at the end of may. Being 0.5 kg off from the target makes me feel good about the mission, but it's not over yet.
Never give up.
Never give in.
It's not over yet.
