Anyone here that has gone on vacation before loosing your weight? Especially a swim suit vacation and have a good time?

I am going to Hawaii 30 points overweight...in six weeks. I know I won’t loose the weight and just broke down and bought clothes that fit me. I don’t was to ruin my trip with clothes too small

    Smart girl!
    It bothers the crap outta me when people try to crash diet just to fit into a bathing suit for a trip. I feel like the potential lasting harm to ones body is not worth it. It's just easier to buy a new suit or dress or whatever. It's best to take a healthful approach to weight loss and crash dieting is not a good idea. Remember the saying " slow and steady wins the race!" You can still begin your diet now and still enjoy your vacation without the added stress of squeezing into something that doesn't fit.

    You did the right thing buying clothes that you look good in now.

    In thr meantime keep working at chipping away those pounds.

    It's not everyday that someone just starting out has this much common sense and a realistic approach! Lol
