Vacation --paradise or torture chamber?

By ssmom

I just got back from Panama City Beach in FL and it was beautiful! No oil. One day the flags were double red flags but that was OK we did pools! I ate breakfast and lunch in the room, so I could control it and ate out each night but was very conscience of what I ordered and how much I ate. I walked the sandy beaches and played in the waves everyday, for hours. But I got home today after 8 hours of driving and weighed and I was up 2 lbs! YIKES. I feel like it was the salt air that made me have water retention, because my feet are swollen, so I am going to drink TONS of water the next two days hoping to flush the water out. I hope this works!

    Sounds like you had a great time. It has to be water if your feet are swelling. Sounds like you did great. No matter what you lived your life and had a great vacation with foods in control. That to me is paradise :0

    Are your feet swollen tonight after driving/riding 8 hours and this was the first time out of the whole trip? It could have nothing to do with how well you ate but alot more to do with fluids in your feet. I have this...I can in lots more detail. See if the swelling goes down over night as well as the "weight gain".
