Happyladi Posted April 17, 2012 #1 Share Posted April 17, 2012 I'm doing Weight Watchers and have lost almost 30 pounds with 15 left to go. I did not want to blow it on this cruise and come home several pounds heavier. So I decided that there was a lot more to a cruise then the food. For breakfast I ate oatmeal or simple eggs with lots of fruit. One morning I did have corned beef hash because I really like it. I figure I can have pastries and pancakes anytime so I avoided them. For lunch I had a few favorites but never over did it and didn't waste calories on ordinary stuff that wasn't healthy. I had a before dinner drink most nights but used sugar free mixers. Royal Caribbean has a healthy menu called Vitailty. I choose it for 5 of my 7 dinners. On lobster night I had 3 lobster tails ( it's a favorite) but kept the butter down. I had the light deserts but always tasted my husband's. I snacked on fruit. I never went hungry and probably ate between 35 to 40 WW+ points a day( I get 26 plus my weeklies). And nothing beats coming home and weighing the same as the day I left! :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Martini Mom Posted April 18, 2012 #3 Share Posted April 18, 2012 Congrats! I'm shooting for the same thing on my cruise this Sunday. Did you take any fitness classes? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Happyladi Posted April 18, 2012 Author #4 Share Posted April 18, 2012 No, I meant to work out but never did. We did a lot of walking and used the stairs most of the time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Way to go and keep working towards your goal!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chaching Posted May 6, 2012 #6 Share Posted May 6, 2012 Congrats! You deserve a pat on the back for that! Great job!!!:D:D:D We try to get toward the back of the ship and walk everywhere. We try not to take the elevators except for formal night when I'm in heels. Works wonders, every time. We only eat one serving at dinners, except for the lobster like you and just don't overdo it.
