The Utila Diet

Do you need to lose weight? Do you want to lose weight on a tropical island? Well then, our diet plan is for you! Our specialists have created it to cater to your needs exactly. Just follow these easy steps for pain-free weight loss! First, find a tropical island and take a trip for a few weeks. Second, sit up on the beach all night waiting for turtles, snacks are optional and do make the time go faster. Even better, find a location waiting for sea turtles which requires walking up to 8 miles each night. Third, recoup from the night on the beach by sleeping during the day. Fourth, wake up with enough time to eat a meal and head right back to the beach. Finally, if you can contrive to contract a GI issue or two, this can speed up the process. If additional activity levels appeal, diving courses can provide exercise without increasing risk of heat stroke. Try our new, patented, proven weight loss method*. 

In other news, dive festival is in full swing. Yesterday's activities included a peak performance buoyancy workshop (we didn't attend since we both did these exercises as part of our diving courses) and a volleyball tournament (sounded too hot so didn't attend that either). I don't think Robyn and I will be vying for the "most active participant" award. Anyway, with the best intentions, we set an alarm last night and went to bed ready to be at UDC by 7am for a deep dive. At 7:40, Robyn jabbed me to say that it was 7:40, we had missed the boat, and I might as well go back to sleep. At noon, when we finally woke up the rest of the way, we were disappointed to see posts on Facebook excitedly recounting the dolphins the dive boat had seen on the deep dive that morning. Well, we'll set several more alarms tonight and hopefully be awake in time for tomorrow morning's dive.
