Robyn. There was an omelette station every morning, so I simply requested that.

Makster, more proof cruises don’t have to equal being a lazy slob, though you sure do see plenty of them lounging around the pool!

My wife and I really like cruises. Been on 6 or 7. I agree, you can make good choices for food and activity.

We went to the Carribean last March on a 7 day cruise for my wifes 50th birthday. Had a great time. I hit the gym 5 out of the 7 mornings. Had decent workouts. They had a good selection of dumbbells and some decent machines. Did some cardio also.

Food choices were great. They always had something at every meal on the “lite” side. I made mostly healthy protein choices and always had veggies. Excellant salad bars and even the buffets had some very good choices.

I will admit that I did indulge in a couple of desserts and a few adult beverages, but all in all good choices were made.

“Breakfast was an Egg white and vege omelette with a little cheese and oatmeal and coffee”
Did you have to ask for this to be made Will, or was it part of the general menu? Great if it was, as I often think breakfast can be the hardest meal to get a healthy choice for when you are eating out.

I agree that there are always ways of making healthy choices when you go on holidays or travelling for work. Sometimes it does take a bit of planning, but worth it so that you can have the occasional splurge.

Sorry to hear it Stephen. Heal up, and you will be back in the gym in no time I am sure. Good luck!
