I love to eat. I've never ever hidden that fact. My husband often will point out that I occasionally eat more than him. Can't help it...when mama finds something good, mama wants to eat it all up!!
At home I am real good about eating healthy and watching our fat and calorie intake. My lunches and snacks during the day are usually pretty simple and boring and healthy. Dinner I go a little more fun, but still only make healthy dishes. I have several low fat/low cal cookbooks and subscribe to a fab healthy cooking magazine. I've found quite a bit of good tasting meals that are good for us.
But when we go to Disney, it's a food fest!!! I don't watch what we eat, I don't count calories...I just enjoy and indulge!!
I once read an average day in Walt Disney World has guests walking about 4 miles. That's a lot of exercise. And for me, it totally counteracts the food I eat while there. I rarely ever come home heavier and if so, maybe a pound that is quickly taken off once I get back into my normal gym routine. I work hard at the gym all year so I can indulge when we're on vacation.
So how about you?? Do you indulge on vacation or stick with your normal healthy diet (if you have one)?
I definitely indulge myself when I'm on vacation! Part of being on vacation is lettin loose and not doing the same things you do at home - so why not! I also agree with you, if I am walking several miles a day (something I don't do at home) then I can afford a few extra calories or an extra dessert here and there!
ReplyDeleteI indulge on vacation, but I also exercise on vacation. So it works out.
ReplyDeleteGlad you got to enjoy all the fun.
DH wanted to exersize when we stayed at Coronado Springs, since there was a gym...yeah...that never happened!
