    When did you get back? Might be water weight :)

    Excellent. I usually come back from a vacation with a whole lot of water weight that flushes out leaving a 1or 2 lb gain after a few days.
    Your 2 lb should come off really quick once you are back to your usual routine.
    Glad you enjoyed yourself.

    Cheers, h.

    Well done! Where did you go/stay, if you don't mind my asking?

    Like your question @ahoy_m8 We usually cruise but have been playing with maybe trying an All Inclusive, so I too am interested, if you don't mind a little off topic detour for a synopsis of your trip @heatherHS.

    Cheers, h.

    That's great! I went on a 3+ week trip to Atlantic Canada and ate some great foods (and drinks like local beers and vodka) and had only gained around 3 pounds.
    We did a lot of hiking and walking.

    In answer to your question, we stayed at the Brisas Guardalavaca, prefect location right on the beach. We upgraded to a villa which was a great move as we heard some negative reviews of the rooms in the hotel! We flew into Holgiun and had an hour transfer from there. Cuba is absolutely stunning, the people are so friendly and humble. The weather was gorgeous every day, we had a few spectacular lightning storms / rain in the evening but every morning it was back to glorious sunshine. Loved it and wouldn't hesitate to go back ... food was good too so with only 2lb gain I'm chuffed but I think the swimming every day helped as I tried to do about 30 lengths a day.

    Good luck everyone - one bad day does not make a bad week xxx
