Topic: DIET before cruising

Hi there does anyone else go on a diet before going cruising I think I kid myself that I will cut down but it never works out that way ;) so do you try to lose some weight before you go :D

In American cruising circles
it's called Lose before you Cruise! :D

And then it,s sail and become a whale :D

I've seen a few people board as Luggage
- and disembark as Cargo!

Not a pretty sight!

Lol that is so funny

Maybe I am not trying hard enough but I don't seem to put on very much at all. I find the choice is so interesting often with gorgeous fruit and salads that I eat more of them than I would normally. We also seem to walk far more than we do at home (and actually get off this computer!) and so take more exercise that way. The answer is to have a little of what you fancy and enjoy yourself..Carol

That is so true of us as well carol , I do tend to walk a lot more and eat at normal times so think that helps margaret

Let's not forget the gym - the perfect opportunity to work off a few pounds!

Must agree.
I return from cruises with my leg muscles toned and in far better condition
than here at home, sitting in front of this computer chatting wiv yew lot.

I reckon one has to be a fairly serious glutton to put on pounds and pounds
although to be fair there are people whose metabolic rates
seem to cling to every shred of caloric intake
My wife has an endless struggle with it: I don't.



Ooooooh!


I pick and chose quite a bit.
I'll sometimes skip a starter course, or a main course.
Never skip dessert -that's against my religion! :D


Someone pointed out that
very few of us eat three course dinners at home
and suddenly, there you are stuffing it all in!

Moderation is the key.
