Tips for not putting on the pounds while on vacation?

We are leaving for an all-inclusive on Friday. As excited as I am, I don't want to pack on the pounds and have to work so hard to get them off when I get home!

Any tips or tricks for not gaining too much weight while away? Especially in an all-inclusive situation?

Only eat when you are hungry - not because it is there and it is free.

Split meals if you can

Try to eat fruits/salad before your meals and drink lots of water.

The hardest is definitely eating only when you're hungry. I ate like a pig on our HM just because it was our HM and it was all inclusive. I felt like crap when we came back home! So I told myself Id never do that again.

We skip all inclusives generally because of the temptation to overeat. The food is also generally better at the local restaurants also, and we love exploring them as part of our trips.

I try to walk a lot on vacation and get some other exercise if there is a gym, or if you can swim. Also, I don't try to lose weight on vacation, and figure I may gain a pound or two, but I try to minimize the damage.

Be as active as you can, walk everywhere, snorkel, swim, walk on the beach with Gregg after ever meal, and hike.

Just got back and I feel very blah and soft, I think I gained some weight.

I think it is kind of inevitable. If I can get a bit of a tan to cover it up I'll be happy! Chat Icon

These are all great tips -- stay active, try to fill up on salads & fruit. Also, watch the calories from alcohol -- frozen drinks in particular are a killer Chat Icon

ETA -- have a GREAT TIME! Chat Icon
