Hi everyone!!
Ok I'm going to Greece on Wednesday with my best friend for 2 weeks. It's her first ever holiday abroad and we're both really looking forward to it. We're both single girls, both 25 years old and I'm the only one doing LL. Now when we booked this holiday, it was long before I was doing LL and we had planned at the time for this to be best 2 weeks ever..going out drinking etc.
However, as I'm now on LL it creates a dilemma.
I've lost just over 3 stone so far and am currently on week 11 of Foundation. I've got about another 3 stone to lose.
I just wondered whenever you guys have been on hols have you eaten/drank and if so, how did it affect your loss?
I mean I don't think the eating is going to create as much of a problem but as we're going to a very lively resort where the reps will drag us along to bar crawls/foam parties etc, I'm going to feel really uncomfortable not drinking AT ALL. It's ok at home but it is different on holiday no matter what anyone says...
Eating wise I've said there's a possibility on 2 or 3 nights of the fortnight that I MIGHT miss a pack or 2 and eat a meal...I mean tuna salad or chicken salad or something with no dressing...basically lean protein and veg/salad which SURELY can't do me harm (I'll be walking a lot more on hols and surely at 30-40 odd degrees I'll be downing water like there's no tomorrow!!).
What I'm wondering is how much of a difference a couple of nights on alcohol would make? Does alcohol make a HUGE difference for say 2/3 nights of the 2 weeks? Can anyone tell me if I was to drink (worst case scenario) what the best drink would be...I'm thinking damage control...a drink low in carbs etc...
I've not cheated AT ALL on this diet..not as much as sniffed food or touched a crumb and as it's my last 3 weeks of foundation and it is a holiday (and I'm going straight back into Development when I come back)...am thinking I could PERHAPS have a small treat. But I don't want the weight to pile on...the longer it takes to come off..the longer I'll be on LL!
Any tips would be greatly appreciated!!!
