    It's just 5 days. Eat what you want, and drink responsibly. Stay hydrated. Enjoy your trip. Less than a week won't undo any progress you've already made.

    Take lots of walks on the beach, play volleyball on the beach or in the pool. Most resorts have lots of activities so just keep active and enjoy

    All good advice. And when you chuck it all and decide to go on a food/drink bender, forgive yourself and remember that it's only 5 days. And it's vacation. And you deserve it. And you'll get back at it when you get home.

    Have fun!!!! :heart:

    Only worry about food if you're allergic. You're on vacation, enjoy yourself. If you're okay with coming home heavier, then REALLY enjoy...just get back on track when home. If not, eat what you want without being a glutton. But first and foremost have a great time!

    Have fun, but be smart about it. Enjoy the food, just not ALL of the food. That should be the same at home or on vacay. The resort will probably have some kind of gym, spend some time there. Enjoy- most of us would love to be going :)

    Pick a few times each day when you can simply eat a protein and some veg. Give yourself a nice dinner and dessert, drink but not too crazy, and stay active.

    When I went a cruise during my weight loss I followed this for myself: If something didn't taste amazing, I didn't eat it. If it was okay, I ate most of it. If it was good I ate it all. If it was AMAZING, I had seconds. Smoked salmon on toast for breakfast, and almost a bottle of wine per night. I went to the gym every day and stayed active. Not an ounce gained.

    You will have an amazing time. Most 'all inclusive" resorts in Cancun have buffets. They'll have all types of fresh fruit, veggies, meats. Plus you'll be busy seeing everything there. Go see Senior Frogs. Go downtown. Our biggest downfall was the Adult Beverages. Psha. You'll make it up when you get home. ENJOY YOUR TRIP!!

    We went to Cancun a few years ago and stayed at a all inclusive resort with 10-15 restaurants. We ate lots of fresh food, did not really snack and would walk to 1 restaurant to have our aperitif , then to another for our main meal, then walk to a last one for dessert. We trekked so many mikes during that week between walking and biking that I ended up losing 2 pounds. Best vacation ever!! Enjoy and relax!!!
