Induction before Vacation?

vnusmars · 03-10-2004, 08:48 PM

Ok, I am at my goal weight and have been for many months now. I am heading out on my first big vacation since losing weight. Ill be in Europe for 2 1/2 weeks and I am concerned with the prospect of keeping my weight at goal. What it be too hard on my body to go on induction 2 weeks prior to lose a few to give myself some leeway for the vacation?

I don't think going on Induction again would hurt you. My guess is though, if you have been doing well at Maintaining for awhile, you may be surprised at how well you can do when you travel. Hopefully, there will still be lots of good legal foods. Enjoy your trip but don't do a "full blown" cheat with your eating. A little splurge ever now and then might not hurt but just look out for the cravings they may cause. It might be harder to get back to Maintenance if you push it too far. Good Luck and have a nice trip. Wish I was going. Got room in your suitcase for a little lady?

Congratulations getting to your goal weight and maintaining for several months. I think you do not need to go on induction before you go. Spread you wings some and trust yourself in the food department. You might be plesantly surprised.

Have a great trip and enjoy every moment.
