Chitown12562 Posted March 17, 2014 #1 Share Posted March 17, 2014 (edited) I have no doubt that on my upcoming cruise I will gain a few pounds. After losing 12+ lbs in the last 2 months I'd like to keep that gain to a minimum. One thing that would help is to bring a few of my own snacks aboard. Do you think Celebrity would have a problem with that? Edited March 17, 2014 by Host Walt Changed title from "snakes" to "snacks" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Do you think Celebrity would have a problem with that? You may bring some pre-packaged snacks, I believe. You will probably not be allowed to take them off the ship when it's docked. You might want to edit your post's subject line. I'm fairly certain snakes are not allowed. :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gek Posted March 17, 2014 #4 Share Posted March 17, 2014 Snakes? Only if you plan on: a) Wearing them on formal night b) Using them as tips c) Using them to mind your deckchair Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stede Bonnet Posted March 17, 2014 #5 Share Posted March 17, 2014 Lol I was really confused on the matter of snakes and weight loss until I got to the word "snacks" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
4774Papa Posted March 17, 2014 #6 Share Posted March 17, 2014 You probably can bring snacks, but no snakes, such as anacondas or boas. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
happybos Posted March 17, 2014 #7 Share Posted March 17, 2014 I have just been reading a really funny thread which queries whether parrots are allowed on board and now you want to snack on snakes? Sent from my iPad using Forums Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare cruisestitch Posted March 17, 2014 #8 Share Posted March 17, 2014 Why not snack on snakes? They taste just like chicken!;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CHEZMARYLOU Posted March 17, 2014 #9 Share Posted March 17, 2014 Why not snack on snakes? They taste just like chicken!;) Only allowed if there is a lawn club grill so you can cook them yourself. Mary Lou Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OCruisers Posted March 17, 2014 #10 Share Posted March 17, 2014 :eek: My EYES popped out when I read this! thanks for the laugh! lololololol LoL: Same here! Still, someone recently ask about bringing a parrot :rolleyes: so who knows ... :D To the OP: Seriously, sorry for making fun of your typo because all of us do typos from time to time. Yes, you may bring "packaged & sealed by the manufacturer" snacks on the ship with you. There really is lots to eat on the ship so probably won't need to take many.

upwarduk Posted March 17, 2014 #11 Share Posted March 17, 2014 I would collect fruit at breakfast, from the Ocean View cafe. That should help keep your weight off. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stateroom_Sailor Posted March 17, 2014 #12 Share Posted March 17, 2014 They let you bring one snake for an inside cabin, 2 for a suite. The rest have to be kept up on the lawn area for staff to keep an eye on. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chitown12562 Posted March 17, 2014 Author #13 Share Posted March 17, 2014 LOL I keep doing that! I want to type "snacks" and type "snakes" instead. I'll have to have this thread closed, as it will cause way more trouble than it's worth. My apologies.:o Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
monicajay Posted March 17, 2014 #14 Share Posted March 17, 2014 There is so much good healthy food to choose from I can't imagine bringing snacks (or snakes:eek:). Walking more than usual, choosing the stairs over the elevators and only eating when hungry will make for a non weight gaining cruise. Never gained more than a pound or two and quickly lost it the next week. In fact, it's the reason we enjoy cruising is the portions are more reasonable than what is traditionally served in restaurants so we can enjoy dinner and have dessert too!

Lulubelle45 Posted March 17, 2014 #16 Share Posted March 17, 2014 I managed to lose weight on my first cruise by taking stairs only and it helped I was on a Zumba cruise an we worked out every day- 3 times on sea days. I ate what I wanted but did the low Cal desserts. Sent from my SGH-I337M using Forums mobile app Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What she said ...;) I find the portions much more reasonable than any of the local restaurants, and opt for the stairs as often as possible, and I've even occasionally lost a pound or two...
