    And be slim enough to eat all that I want on vacation and not feel guilty about it/worry about a little holiday weight gain :)

    My vacation is a major motivator, not the only one but its a mid term goal an it's definately helping me to stick at it. We're going to thailand and Vietnam for 3 weeks in september and I'm using this to keep pushing my weight loss. I need regular goals for motivation, wedding in August, vacation in September etc i find it helps when the 'lifestyle change' bit seems very far away.
    And there's no chance in hell I'm going to be working out while on vacation, or watching what I'm eating. Trying to calculate what a street food vendor in Chiang Mai has put in his pad thai would drive both me and my partner mad. I'm hoping the copious amounts of walking we tend to do while away and the crazy heat will counteract most of the damage. I travel regularly enough and haven't put weight on while on while away once, it's the sitting in front of the tv eating crisps that does the damage to me!
    Feels free to add me! China is amazing by the way!

    Love all these fabulous vacations coming up. That said, losing weight for the sole purpose of an event can go south when the event is over. While it's great to have the date of the trip as a goal, start considering some more long term reasons for your weight loss or you will find it is easy to slack off after the event. Good luck.

    I was maintaining when I went on a cruise in June of this year. After eating the buffet three times a day for a week, plus tons of ice cream, I gained 7lbs. :blushing: It was worth it though!

    I'm going on a cruise in October-Nov this year, and I plan on going as a size 4 and weighing under 130 pounds. That's slightly less than 1 pound per week loss, but I am determined to get it done!

    My husband and I are going on a cruise on Jan 1st next year and I am doing everything I can to get into shape! We will be celebrating our 10th wedding anniversary and I was about 30lbs heavier when we were married. I would love to knock his socks off wearing a cute swimsuit.

    How are y'all getting into shape?

    What is your exercise routine. What are you eating/limiting from your diet?

    I need all the help I can get!

    TIA!!

    I'm getting in shape because I want to look fit as fukk ALL the time... I want to be able to look down at my tummy and be like, 3 kids? So what? No excuses!

    I guess I'm just greedy. :laugh:
