So, I just booked a cruise for the August with my mom, my best friend and her mom. And I am going to look good!!
But, in the other cruises I have been on (this will be my 7!) I always chow down, every meal and gain A LOT of weight. Does anyone have any insite to the massive meals on cruises??

    I always eat so much on cruises...those midnight chocolate buffets are amazing
    I've never gained weight though, I think its because instead of using the elevator, I always take the stairs.
    You'd be amazed at how much that can help things.
    And cruise ships usually have really nice gyms so I always have fun in there too...pretty view from the windows.

    I'm so jealous, I love cruises
    HAVE FUN!!!

    I love cruises too and have NO advice about the food. I always eat every time the place is open and I order room service at night and in the morning, simply because I can. I never cared if I gained or maintained, but do look for chances to exercise, heck the walking alone is enough to work off lots of calories. My ship to Mexico had an indoor gym and a track, but I think you had to pay. Today, I'd figure it well worth the price.
