eating rubbish on holiday!

[annie-lisa]

following on from several threads on healthy eating, does anybody else throw caution to the wind and eat exactly what they want and like whilst on holiday! i love american fast foods and such, especially taco bell and five guys:tounge:

[babymole]

i think that that it is just part of the holiday, who needs to think about dieting on holiday;) not me!!!

[frazers mum]

Yeah- always spend the whole 2 weeks eating 90% junk and get really constipated (sorry TMI!) and really bloated. I always try and wear my "thin clothes" at the beginning of the 2 weeks and keep the old elasticated waisters for the end:d: There is no real reason to eat junk because there are healthy options but it just tastes so goood:pgig: and we are on holiday after all!!!

[freakyjo114]

I eat whatever I want on holiday, I figure the extra walking and swimming burns off excess calories :pgig: I personally would be miserable if I dieted on holiday, but I do eat quite a lot of salads, granted they are accompanied by ribs or popeyes chicken usually :pgig:

[anniealfie]

I have been good for 4 months for this holiday - so i am going to eat what I like but i know I will try and have salad and fruit as my tummy wont be able to take all that fat after not eating any for months....lost 2.5 stone by the way !!

Wow leanne-great weight loss. well done you!:d:

[Sue]

Me too - I cannot stand diet drinks - so it's full sugar Sprite etc (not keen on Coke), burgers, fries, cheesecake. Basically everything I don't eat at home.
Don't get bloated, but often get constipated - same as Joanne lol

[ally1966]

Yep 'fraid so........just come back from an all inclusive to Fuerteventura.......put over 1/2 stone on in a week!!!

[becky2203]

I'm exactly the same, just eat what I want on holiday! But I suppose being a veggie I eat a lot of salad stuff even when I'm away. Still generally come home craving some home cooked veggies/healthy food though...or is that just me?!?!

[madwife]

Absolutely - and I still managed to lose 2lb last trip :wave:

[Michele106]

I was pleasantly surprised to find that last time we came home from Florida I had lost weight. I was convinced that I would have put on loads after all the rubbish I ate, but I think all the walking we did more than compensated for it :)

wow, i am glad i'm not the only one that reckons walking counteracts all the wrong foods i eat. well done to the people who have lost weight.

[summertime85]

I definately throw caution to the wind while in Florida :blush:. I never put on any weight there though as all the walking uses up the extra calories. :spin:

[CSI:Jude]

No chance i'm there to enjoy myself not count calories...o how excited i am to eat what i like without Mr Jude frowning at me lol x

Eating all of that lovely American food is a big part of the holiday, I could holiday in America just for the food , eat whatever you want and worry about diets when you get home holidays are about spoiling yourself

[Amyrlin]

I eat what I like, but at the same time I will often loose weight.

[Georgia&Dani]

Defo. It's part and parcel of a Florida holiday, lovely food. I always eat what I want and don't worry about it. In fact, I usually lose a few pounds from all the activity.
I don't see the point in watching what you eat on holiday. It's not as if you do it every day of the year.

[Fiona]

We eat whatever we want when we`re in Florida and I always lose weight when we`re out there. I always put it down to all the swimming I do in the villa pool and the walking. Over here, I have to eat healthily all week and then have what I want at weekends, as I put on weight very easily. That way I stay at a size 14. It is wonderful to go to Florida, eat all the junk etc. that I want and actually lose weight! Fabulous! :-)

[envoguemia]

I never watch what I eat when im there as a holiday to me is relaxing and doing things i dont normally get to such as quality family time and eating what and when i want. I do lots of walking and swimming but always gain a few pounds :blush: I can live with that though :d:

[Bullpeppar]

The first time we went, we just went mad particularly with breakfasts. Last year, we slacked off on the breakfast but still enjoyed the fast food. You walk so much you work most of it off anyway.

[tinkerlink]

I eat what i like one holiday been on a diet nearly two year so a few weeks a year off is fine by me lost four stone as long as it all dosen't go back on again i don't mind!! Bring on the Cheesecake factory

[Princess Belle]

Defo got to eat what you want on hols - it's no fun to worry about what you are eating on hols. You are active for longer in Florida too - all that walking round the parks. You need to fuel yourself! Hehe :) Want to try and lose lots of weigh before we go. I'm fed up with being a chunky monkey :(

[shepherdypie]

Yes defo - you have to that is why we go on holiday - to enjoy it.

[madjock]

I do just go for it but must admit that being a bit of a fish lover I do tend to choose that from a menu rather than meat anyway so that's my contribution to being healthy whilst on holiday ;)

My American weakness is pancakes, pancakes, pancakes! I love them fortunately though I like them plain not smothered in sweet stuff so again I'm healthy, right?

A few years back we did a couple of offsite buffets and we were very naughty parents allowing their children to have ice-cream for brekkie (as afters I hasten to add) :blush:

[carys]

I eat what I like and always gain weight ! I want to be a person that eats and loses weight out there ! IT IS NOT FAIR !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! * goes and pushes Fiona over *;)

[Catherine]

I am a bit of a bore and will be trying to be sensible as i pile weight on really easily. I have been dieting for 8 weeks and lost over 20lb, so dont want to pile it all back on in 2 weeks.

[Dabies]

I always eat what I like when I'm on holiday, what would be the point of doing otherwise? I've never put weight on in the past, but I've only really started putting weight on in the last two or three years, before then I used to be able to eat whatever I liked without putting on a pound, a completely different story now though. We're both on a diet to slim down for our wedding in just under three months, and it really is getting to me having to think about everything that I eat, and not eating anything shouldn't. The only thing that's getting me through it is the thought that we have three weeks of dining out at the end of it all. :D

[missl]

its all part of the holiday food,food,food dont care what i eat dont gain weight anyway cause of all the walking :)

[laura]

:wave:we all eat:d: what we want on holiday as its supposed to be your relaxing time, mind you in Florida it is usually a busy but great holiday so why worry about what your eating,plenty time to do that when your home:pgig::pgig:
:P1x1e_Dust:

[wazzimama]

i do eat slightly healthy over there but i must say it's not down to dieting or even on purpose... i love their caesar salads, can't even get close in this country

[Melville]

I do quite a bit of weight training and go through cycles of bulking and then cutting to reduce bodyfat and guess which cycle has fitted in nicely with my America trip?? Yup you guessed it BULKING :pgig:

Looking to put on a stone over Sep and Oct so watch out you all you can eat buffet places :d:

Yes, me!!! :grin: and I always come back lighter :cool2: (but we are in the parks from opening til closing!). I don't deny myself anything because I'm on hols and I do that the rest of the year.

[johnyyp]

When I first read the tread title I thought you was talking about going through the trash cans:pgig: I might have a detox at sweet tomatoes, but only to counteract the 1lb burger from fuddruckers:blush: I will enjoy the food while I'm there and worry about any extra weight when I get back home.

[Gilly120]

The food is a big part of our holiday especially the cheesecakes and the cookies. We always eat what we like on holiday and like a lot of people say due to all the working dont put a lot of weight on.

it's being a nurse whot does it, working is just as cream crackering and calorie consuming as walking round disney, it's not fair:nonono:
