Hi!, just back from my cruise to Bermuda

[helenk]

I was not able to weigh myself all week, quite tough when you are use to weighing yourself at least once a day.
I weighed myself as soon as we got back this afternoon and I am up 4 pounds. Now this is after eating breakfast, and generally I weigh myself first thing in the morning.
4 pounds for a week of cruising is not too bad.
I tried to keep on track but it was too hard. I stayed low carb for breakfast and lunch and the first few days stayed away from desserts at dinner, but I soon gave into temptation.
The ship had a small fitness center, but I did not use it. I did walk on the deck though. Our first day out was too windy and the water was too choppy, but that was the only day I did not walk. Each day I walked at least a mile and a half, some days 2 miles. The deck was marked 6 laps for a mile, so it was a nice walk. Of course while we were in Bermuda we went sight seeing and did a little bit of swimming.
Now that I am home and can get back to my lean cuisines, I expect to drop the 4 pounds rather quickly!

Glad you had a good time- which lean quisines do you like? I haven't found one that knocked my socks off

Welcome Back! I think being up only 4 lbs after a week of cruise eating is so great! I would be up way more than that I think. A lot of that 4 lbs is most likely water weight that will be gone before you know it.

Welcome home! Yes, I'm sure those 4 pounds are water weight, and they'll be gone in a couple of days! Congratulations on doing so well while you were gone!

I'm glad you had a wonderful trip!

It sounds like you didn't stray very far from your healthy eating, even enjoying the wonderful meals on board- you'll be able to say bye-bye to those very temporary vacation pounds in no time!
