I meant to say fill :-)

My doctor said that it is not uncommon for people ( esp if you have no restriction) to gain a few pounds during a vacation time. Human nature is to relax and not watch our portion sizes, etc and slip into bad habits when we are away from our routine. His advice was while on vacation try to still make appropriate choices to keep the gain to a min. Then upon return from vacation, buckle back down!

one fill is unlikely to give u much restriction at all, many of us didnt really feel it till fill number 4 or 5 so just be patient and hang on in there, try to make good choices and keep getting those fills.

Many people let loose a little on vacation, its not a step back , just a bump in the road :)

Even skinny people gain weight over vacations. Unless you were consuming a cube of butter per meal it's mostly Water weight from the extra carbs and sodium and not fat.

while away from home make sure to eat your lean proteins first, followed by veggies then carbs if you have any room left. also try to stay active and exercise while on vacation if you can. good luck!
