Fly in, Fly Out Partners affecting diet?

I can say it is the same for the person flying in and out too, possibly worse because often not only is camp food horrible tasting but unhealthy too so there is a huge temptation to indulge back at home. That was me for a while, the person FIFOing.

I'm afraid the only solution i came up with this was to give up fly in fly out work and live in the mining town.
Obviously this isn't something you probably want to do yourself although i personally love it.

Maybe you might have eat different meals if your partner wants something you don't think is healthy? Or maybe it is something you just need to have a talk about so they are supportive of you and your goals. And if you can make your exercise while they are home something you can share in together, e.g. go for a walk together, play tennis etc. Even if isn't as high intensity as you normally do it is at least something. Or if you spend a lot of time watching movies/TV together at home maybe think about getting a cheap compact exercise bike that you could ride while you watch. I've got one of them and that works out great, especially if you put on an interval timer on your phone to make sure i push myself and not just get caught up in the show and hardly move my legs.

That's about all i can think so. Honestly the way Australia is going with fly in fly out lifestyles is really making me angry. It is such as strain on so many relationships and is definitely not good for health and wellbeing or communities. It would be fine if there was lots of options to be residential and FIFO was a choice, but so often there is such a lack of affordable housing there is no real choice.

Good luck.

Oh i completely hear you on this one!
My man is FIFO 4 and 1... so i'm great for a month and then have a week of crap and no workouts

as yet i haven't come to a conclusion as to how i can get around this! haha BUT i did try to think to myself... its only a week, i didn't lose the weight in a week and i wont gain it in a week either

I think thats a good way to think of it, look at your journey in cycles of 4 weeks instead of weekly and if you are down after a month then all is good, as long as the numbers are trending down you are winning, but haha if it was me i would have the months weigh in the day before he flew home, try and not stress it for the week, enjoy the time home and then really knuckle down for the other three weeks.
My son is FIFO as well, started geting the FIFO belly but then has got into a cycle of work washing, while thats happening go to the gym, can really see the difference. Its can be tuff but hang in there and enjoy him while you have him home....
