Working Offshore?

aggie04chic

Ok, so does anyone here work offshore (I see that plenty of you have other halves that work offshore, but I work out there myself)? And if so, do any of you that work offshore have any advice on keeping up with this while being offshore?

I've worked offshore now for 5 years and pending which Chief Steward it is been I've had it easy or struggled with weight loss. When it's the not so hot CS I find it very easy to lose weight because I'm essentially starving because I refuse to eat unidentifiable slop, or I do eat and it and it gives me food poisoning and I spend 2 days not holding anything down before being able to eat again. Or if it's thegreat CS I find that I 'stock up' to cover the opposite times. I'm going to do my best to eyeball portion sizes, and take a guess at how to enter it into here (and if it's the unidentifiable food it will be just that, a guess1) but does anyone else have any other suggestions or encouragement or is the above of eyeballing it and taking guesses the best you can do?
