All Inclusive Vacation

My wife and I are considering going on an all-inclusive vacation to Mexico where basically eating is buffet style. I am a little hesitant to take this vacation because I know my eating patterns now don't jive very well with this type of eating. I feel like I would be wasting money by going because my eating would be fairly limited. Also remembering the last time I took a similar trip on my honeymoon about 12 years ago when my weight issues really started to climb and get out of control.

Basically, we need to use it soon because it is a promotional trip we bought a year or two ago, before I even considered this surgery. If we don't use it soon we will be out a good chunk of change. I want to go primarily for relaxation and force myself to recharge.

I know I can count on my VST friends for some advice. Thanks!

I have just got back from a two week vacation in Australia. I just went with the flow and decided to enjoy myself and not spend time worrying about weight. I didn't eat more than normal, though the food was different and included more carbs than I usually consume. I drank alcohol every day which is not the norm. Despite this, I lost a kilo over the two weeks. I am back on MFP and back in my usual routine and I think the break from my routine was a good thing.

Wow, this is an unexpected question over a year later! Lol.

I drank mostly wine, though there were a few nights where I had a pre dinner cocktail or two. Fast forward over a year and I can regularly enjoy a wine or two, or an occasional cocktail with no consequence. I just make sure I track it and make sure I burn it off.

All things in moderation.
