Thank you. I missed this post!
Espi: I am still in Grenada. I will be home tomorrow about midnight, my time.

Actually closer to 1 a.m. I get to the airport at midnight if the flights work properly.

This has been wonderful vacation time (pics to follow) -- but 2 weeks of no workouts is hard for me. I can really see a visible difference, not horribly nasty, but it is there. I have lost some definition in my arms, legs and of course the abs. I know i put on a couple more pounds and I am upset about that! I did a few pushups here and there but basically I did not do cardio or weights for 2 whole weeks. Yes, I walked and stuff, but that is not much when you are used to going hard....

I feel like I don't look as good as I did but I know I can get back there right?!

As long as you have a great time. You'll be back in the swing of things in every possible way (both good & bad I assume)

I'm back. Damage not too bad -- weight wise. I see less definition and no veins but that could just be a matter of water, right?

I do find that 2 weeks with no cardio set me back a bit. It was nearly impossible to do the stepmill like I usually do. Mind you, I was trying the day after my flight when I'd arrived home after midnight.
