i dont eat to much whilst in florida, i am so embarressed by my hubby, he always has to overeat especially in golden coral and ponderosa, he always thinks he should get his moneys worth.......[msnembarrased]whilst i'm sitting there with my one plateful, then a desert......

We love all the fabulous places which there are to eat in Florida but because we spend so much time walking and swimming we do not put too much weight on . Unlike everyone else so far I do admit to some gain in weight when we are there, especially at christmas time but I guess we would gain at Christmas time if we stayed at home.

My last guests were delighted to report that they had lost weight despite a heroic effort to cover ALL the restaurants in the area.
They could only put it down to the exercise walking round the parks; they did an amazing amount of places in 2 weeks1

I put on 7lbs over 17 days last time[msnembarrased]. I thought that all the walking would help but obviously not. We have breakfast at somewhere like Ponderosa's and that's it for the day until dinner. When the others had icecream I had a fruit lolly as I thought that would be better. Hubby's appetite goes down in the heat but mine doesn't[msnembarrased]
I go to weight watchers I bet i wont loose no weight only put it on
Went away for the weekend & put on 2.5lbs

Me too, I'm a weight watcher, still manage to put on about 7lb's in 2 weeks. Even with all the swimming, walking etc. Put it down to Manny's ribs and chips!! [msnembarrased]

I always loose a few lbs in florida. I think its because we dont snack over there. Have breakfast in the villa then 1 meal out and a light meal in. Occassionally we have 2 meals out during a day depending on what we are doing.
The thing is we don't have crisps / biscuits to munch on in fromt of the TV like I tend to at home.
I wouldn't say that I do much more exercise in Florida as I am on my feet or in the pool when working here.

Hi
We lost weight on our recent trip to Florida.
We love eating and we tried everything as usual..............
The diet goes out the window for the duration of our stay.
We had 2 visits to Dunkin donuts [msntongue]
My daughter became addicted to peanut butter M&Ms [msnsmile2]
We had many visits to Golden coral[msnsmile2]
1 visit to Ponderosa (not impressed with them anymore [sick]
3 visits to Chilli's[msnsmile2]
We also had many Publix creme cakes !
2 China one take aways
We also had plenty of lovely salads that we made at the villa.
We also did a LOT of walking and swimming.
Now we are back home the detox has started,the peanut butter M&Ms have all gone, but....................... I beleive there are many bags on their way from Ebay !!!!!!!!!!![msnwink]
