I gained seven and a half pounds on a seven day cruise. Is that a record?

I usually gain 7 to 10 pounds. I think it's the salt air.

I don't think I gained too much on the last 7 day cruise with all the walking I did. The dessert temptations always seem to be the culprit, or having the cheeseburgers on the Lido deck.

Always take the stairs!

I normally don't gain much because I walk everywhere. However, the sweet rolls in the mornings and desserts at night, well I wear my tighter fitting clothes at the beginning of the cruise, just in case

Right on Penny, I always wear the tighter fitting ones early on, although I only put on 4 lbs this last trip..I think it is the walking and the tropical heat that does it to me.

The secret is to avoid the buffet for breakfast & lunch. Always eat in the dining room.

They already make me do that during the Muster Drill. That's about all I can handle.

The buffet doesn't bother me, it's the frozen tropical drinks.
I think pina colada is spanish for packed with calories!

Then Margarita must mean "pounds packed with a punch".

I don't think I gained that much weight on my cruise (7Lbs+ or 3.18Kg+). But I am sure I gained a few pounds of weight on my cruise>

The culprit in my case was drinking lots of soda to justify the purchase of the Soda Fountain Card.

Fortunately, all that walking around the ship and using the stairways, moderates my weight gain. Of course, there is always the gym onboard . Maybe someday on my future cruise I will have my first work-out at sea.
