Gained 10 m# on Euro vacation

[redhead]

So…. We took the family to Europe for 18 days. I didn’t bring any peps. Timed
It so it El was a real for everything— including Tirz.

We walked 20k a day and ate lightly. Istanbul - Hungary - Croatia meant healthy food choices each meal.

I was shocked — SHOCKED — that it gained 10 in the 3 weeks away. Especially because we were walking so hard doing 19 floors and 30k each day. Only last two days was chill and swim days. And it was Croatia so lightest food with fresh fish and cucumber salad everywhere.

Ok I did drink more wine than usual. Which means -a glass at dinner and not every time. Mainly Budapest bc they have great wine.

So curious — am I one of those most be on tirz at highest dose for lifers ?! I wad at top dose but at my lowest weight / maintaining when we left for Istanbul. Curious what others experience while taking a travel break. Or maintaining….have at it. Whatcha think?

I'm pretty sure the way it works for most everyone is that these drugs are a workaround, not a cure. GIGO. So it's to be expected that you can't take a break from them. They're easy enough to take along (reconned), especially if you're staying in short-term rentals or hotels with mini-fridges. I've asked a small hotel to keep my vial in their kitchen fridge; they seemed to be familiar with the routine.

I just bought an RXCoolers Mini Medicine Electric Travel Cooler (ebay, but new in unopened box), which I hope will be better than the icepack in insulated thing routine. It basically is its own refrigerator.

Did you have fun and make great memories? Then 10lbs was worth it 😉

That aside, any change in a routine that much for almost 3 weeks. Even with good food and good choices, the body gonna do what it wants sometimes. I think going off of it, once in a while is actually a good reminder of why we take it and appreciate it.
