Coping with holidays

Oh gosh I am having a struggle at the moment. I am away from home for a few days staying in a lovely hotel, eating out nice restaurants etc. I do understand that I should just enjoy it and get back to it when I get home, but that is where the problem lies. When I am in the zone I find it quite easy to stick to it, but once I stray like this, getting back to it is so hard. I am so worried this is going to happen to me, that I will go home on Tuesday and lost all motivation. How do others cope in this situation?

    Just go back to logging. Follow your pre-holiday habits. Don't wait around to "feel motivated". I practice portion control even when on vacation, even if it means I can't eat my whole meal and some must go to waste because I can't take it home with me.
