sandthrush Posted September 23, 2014 #5 Share Posted September 23, 2014 Definitely eat more, but also we move around a lot more, so when we get home, any weight gained comes off easily. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
trev71 Posted September 23, 2014 #6 Share Posted September 23, 2014 Oh yeah I eat way more. normally I have more sweets then anything Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
readytolose Posted September 23, 2014 #7 Share Posted September 23, 2014 Unfortunately, Yes, we eat more. We don't tend to eat dessert at home except for special occasions. On a cruise we eat it every night. Why? Because it's there and we can! :D We also tend to snack between meals on a cruise which we never do at home!

debshomespun Posted September 23, 2014 #8 Share Posted September 23, 2014 Yes! I eat healthier, but more! Breakfast is fruits, lunch is salads and dessert, dinner is appetizer, salad, entree and dessert. At home, I eat junk food, but also fruits and vegetables, but harder to get at home. Eat in between meals on a cruise too. Like the others said, cuz it is there!! Best cruise was our 30 day, and I only gained 3 lbs! I was VERY disciplined on this one!!

cb at sea Posted September 23, 2014 #13 Share Posted September 23, 2014 I definitely eat more breakfast! At home, it's usually yogurt....I do eggs/fixings every day on a cruise! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bradntx Posted September 23, 2014 #14 Share Posted September 23, 2014 We only have 1 cruise under our belt, wife ate pretty much the same. I probably ate a bit more. For us it was the frozen drinks where we picked up our extra calories. I think I had baked salmon and salad at least 2 nights in the WJ, but also hit up the bread pudding and ice cream for desert. I have dropped over 100lbs over the last 2 years and even though it's available I just have no desire to gorge myself. That big NY strip in chops probably didn't help either.

freeon Posted September 23, 2014 #15 Share Posted September 23, 2014 Yes. For me it's part of the vacation. A vacation from eating healthy the rest of the year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bplazo Posted September 23, 2014 #16 Share Posted September 23, 2014 (edited) Yes, I do try to work out some at the gym or take the stairs so I do not gain to much weight. I have read several complaints where people who thought that the food was so bad that they did not eat much and lost weight.

Paulette3028 Posted September 23, 2014 #17 Share Posted September 23, 2014 When on a cruise, than at home? I do, as a widower, nice to have all cruise meals, plus no household chores. :) I can't eat more, I eat differently....for sure. Even at home, I eat every two hours or so; but it is a yogurt or a granola bar, or a salad; on the ship, if there are more unhealthy things to eat and 'prepared already for me' I am there. During the day at home, I wouldn't think of having a large plate for lunch with heavy starches....too busy and I don't have the time to make it. On the ship...its there....I order it or visit the WJ for an afternoon snack of coffee and cookies/cake and frozen treat. I also walk/exercise more.....so the extra calories don't seem to add up enough to matter. We are not big drinkers and those calories add up even more....but not for us.

OCruisers Posted September 23, 2014 #18 Share Posted September 23, 2014 In the minority it seems but I don't eat any more or less than I do at home. LuLu Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fat Paul Posted September 23, 2014 #19 Share Posted September 23, 2014 We don't eat much more but with beer at the solarium and drinks in the Diamond lounge we drink much more. Before our last cruise I lost 90lbs and was afraid that I would gain weight on the cruise. We decided to NEVER step on the elevators and also exercise every day, neither my wife or I gained any weight. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tm3750 Posted September 23, 2014 #20 Share Posted September 23, 2014 We walk two miles every morning and eat the rest of the day!!! We do eat more on a cruise. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Trainman-2 Posted September 23, 2014 #22 Share Posted September 23, 2014 You know from my photos that I love to eat! On our recent 10 night cruise to Bermuda on the Vision of the Seas I only gained 4 pounds. I attribute this to having to leave our cabin and walk up to the smoking area on the pool deck. :eek: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rednose83 Posted September 23, 2014 #23 Share Posted September 23, 2014 When on a cruise, than at home? I do, as a widower, nice to have all cruise meals, plus no household chores. :) I eat less. I used to joke that if I wanted to lose 5 pounds, I'd just go on a cruise. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
beckinoz Posted September 23, 2014 #24 Share Posted September 23, 2014 I definitely ate way more than I do at home but moved much more and funnily enough drank less than I would at home. I actually lost 2kg (4.4 pound) on our 9 night cruise :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kleo30 Posted September 23, 2014 #25 Share Posted September 23, 2014 Not a whole lot more, but much differently than I do at home. I do, however, drink more than I usually do. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
