Hello! I've only been on dieting for a week or two and think that I've been doing well! I'm going away for a long weekend to Prague for site seeing and a big party this weekend. I LOVE to drink alcohol and I always seem to eat SO much when I travel. Has anyone got any suggestions how to cut down the calorie intake/exercise whilst away from home and the gym?! Thanks for any advice x

    Couple of thoughts...

    - Walk as much as possible and log it. Use those calories! Personally, I log only 2/3 of my actual time since I have no HRM.

    - I don't try to eat at a deficit while on holiday - I switch to 0 lb/week (maintenance) which is much more reasonable goal.

    - Drink expensive alcohol! It tastes way better, and because it's expensive you will savor it more and drink less of it. :-)

    - Split your food choices with a companion. I want ALL the things, especially when I travel. Splitting lets me do that.


    Good luck!

    Try and find a hotel with a gym in it and get up early to work out. Walk around a lot in the day. The exercise from this should mitigate the booze calories. This works for me as I don't like to let my change of lifestyle get in the way of me and my friends having a good time.
