Just thought I'd share my experience with you.
I had to go away unexpectedly for a few days (Disaster in my house which meant I couldn't live there while builders were working) We booked a lovely little place in the country. I took my blender and my shakes and hoped for the best.
The place was filled with gorgeous places to eat, full of hearty calorie laden home cooking, and smells to die for. Normally I would be stuffing my face and looking at the time in anticipation of my next meal. To me holidays/functions were always about eating and drinking as much as you can.
I was so shocked! It didn't bother me one iota. In fact I enjoyed going out to restaurants/pubs and being able to resist. I enjoyed watching other people eat and drink knowing that I could sip my water and have just as good a time as them. I felt strangely elated and powerful hehe.
I loved the fact that I was never stuffed full of food or peed on drink. I was always bright eyed and bushy tailed and ready for the next hike (and by God we did some hiking up mountains, country lanes, across fields, through forests. I've now thigh muscles like Roberto Carlos) I was full of energy and alert. I have never been those words on holiday before.
So if anyone is going away or to a function where you are going to be expected to eat or drink, you can still go and have a great time while on LT. You'll get a buzz being all strong and powerful. You'll feel proud of yourself for resisting temptation. People will think you're the bees knees for looking after yourself and wanting to improve your health.
If I can do it, anyone can.
