I hate the hotel "free" breakfasts....



Recommended Posts

They certainly are a CARB-FEST aren't they!?! I've seen a few with eggs -- usually scrambled, but occasionally hard-boiled -- some questionable sausage patties, but not much to offer in the way of healthy Protein. I usually pack some instant breakfast packets and get my low-fat milk from the hotel.

The motel we always stay at when we go for my Dads and my DH's medical check ups, has a similar breakfast...but they always have some yogurt, and some fruit---so I usually opt for that. Most of the time I will take the yogurt to eat for breakfast, and carry off a banana or an apple for snacking later!!! But back in the day---I would have had a bagel with a couple of donuts for dessert!!!!

I love them! I can usually find yougurt and a nutrigran or some ceral bar. I love loading up my purse for snacks/ meals throughout the day. Free food is great.

Chelle--I'm with you on this one! My son and I didn't eat at our hotel at all during our trip over the holidays. The hotels don't want to lose too much money, so they serve more inexpensive carbs rather than spending their "dough" on protein! LOL!

I work for the Hilton Brand. Embassy Suites have alot to choose from. And Most hotels that say "Free breakfast" or "Free internet" is not...its included in your room fee.

Also the Hilton brands are doing this thing where you can figure out what to eat by color.

I was about to say what Dream did.. it's not really free.. and our local Holiday Inn, if you say you don't want the 'free breakfast', they give you a rate discount.

Thanks, I will tell them that next time. And just buy some shakes and Protein Bars for the room.

      I have no clue where to upload this, so I'll put it here. This is pre-op vs the morning of my 6 month appointment! In office I weight 232, that's 88 lbs down since my highest weight, 75 lbs since my surgery weight! I can't believe this jacket fit... I am smaller now than the last time I was this size which the surgeon found really amusing. He's happy with where I am in my weight loss and estimates I'll be around 200 lbs by my 1 year anniversary! My lowest weight as an adult is 195, so that's pretty damn exciting to think I'll be near that at a year. Everything from there will be unknown territory!!

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

        That's brilliant! You've done amazing!! I should probably think about changing my profile picture at some point. Mine is the doll from Squid Games. Ironically the whole premise of the show is about dodging death. We've both done that...

      Two years out. Lost 120 , regained 5 lbs. Recently has a bout of Norovirus, lost 7 pounds in two days. Now my stomach feels like it did right after my surgery. Sore, sensitive to even water.  Anyone out there have a similar experience?

      April Surgery
      Am I the only struggling to get weight down. I started with weight of 297 and now im 280 but seem to not lose more weight. My nutrtionist told me not to worry about the pounds because I might still be losing inches. However, I do not really see much of a difference is this happen to any of you, if so any tips?
      Thanks

      Well recovering from gallbladder removal was a lot like recovering from the modified duodenal switch surgery, twice in 4 months yay 🥳😭. I'm having to battle cravings for everything i shouldn't have, on top of trying to figure out what happens after i eat something. Sigh, let me fast forward a couple of months when everyday isn't a constant battle and i can function like a normal person again! 😞

        I may have to have gall bladder surgery during my weight loss surgery. Not thrilled about it either but do not want 2 recovery times. Just want it over with.

        Thanks for your post. I may need to rethink my decision... :(
