Vacations

Vacations.....fun for most, except the dieter. My husband and I spent a weekend in Atlantic City recently. We had a great time. We stayed right on the boardwalk in a great hotel that you really did not need to leave. The problem is that there was no place to get a relatively healthy meal. None of the restaurants offered any kinds of "healthy" or "low-fat" food. It was all slathered in butters or oils and then deep fried. While it all tasted amazing, it did nothing good for our bodies.

We very quickly through the "eating healthy" part out the window. We would have had to eat the same 3 things everyday to stick to our diet. We did make sure that we were very active to balance out all of the artery clogging food. Overall this tactic worked to keep the pounds away but now we are back to the beginning of trying to ween yourself away from craving the unhealthy food. I just keep telling myself that you only need to eat like that occasionally, not daily. There is nothing wrong with that.
