I wanted to stop in and say you have some absolutely great advice! It’s a hard enough feat to maintain a weight loss regimen at home, and even harder if you take a vacation!

Thanks,

Kate

You posted this after while I was on vacation. Sadly, I managed to gain a few pounds in England, despite walking a bazillion more steps each day than usual. My problem was the opposite of skipping breakfast. Instead of my normal small bowl of yogurt and berries, I had a full English breakfast — eggs, toast, beans, sausage, broiled tomatoes… and a bunch of other dishes every single morning.

In reply to Kathy Marris. Hi Kathy! Congratulations on the weight loss! I know if I took a cruise that I would gain weight. When I'm traveling on my own I don't usually have an issue. All the walking makes up for the extra calories (or at least that's what I think!) :)

In reply to budget jan. Hi Jan. That fish chowder was amazing! We do make good chowder in Nova Scotia. When I traveled for business I often used hotel fitness centers. Although, I actually preferred the hotel swimming pool. Now, like you, I walk a lot when I'm traveling. My problem with weight gain isn't while I'm on the road (all walking, NO yellow convertibles!). I struggle when I come back home. Although, I still walk a lot, it's not as much as when I'm away.

Great tips Nancie. I managed to gain 6 Kgs after cruising and various other holidays over the past two years. Fortunately I have now lost this weight and I will be a lot wiser for future holidays. I do exercise a lot whilst on holidays but I tend to increase portions and eat treats that I don’t normally eat.

Great tips and good strategies, Nancie. Now I just have to get in the habit of utilizing them everyday AND while traveling! 🙂

I think good habits are important and should follow us everywhere, including vacation. And what can help us is the fact that we should enjoy our diet, workout or run, maybe thinking of the results we’ll have in the future. Thanks for the tips!

My that fish chowder looks wonderful. I don’t think I have ever stayed at a hotel with a fitness centre and I probably wouldn’t use it if I did. We do a lot of walking which helps compensate for tasting all the new food options (when we’re not driving around in yellow convertibles that is lol).
