fatty needs answer
im on vacation after losing about 15 pounds and im really stressing about gaining the weight back. im currently in cali for the week. usually at home i run every day but here i have only run twice out of the 5 days ive been here. i try to do some ab work and pushups in the evenings but i still dont feel like im getting a workout in. im busy allk day at the beach and stuff so thats why i havnt been working out very much. pretty much all my meals have been food from restaurants and such. ive done all my research in advance and know what healthy low cal options there are at these food places. im not eating any more then 2000 calories a day and usually am only eating about 1000. my technical daily caloric intake for my height and weight is 2400. i eat more calories at home. my question to you is A. do you think that i will gain a significant amount of weight while on my week long vacation because i am not working out as much. and B. could i still gain weight because im eating restaurant and fast food even though i am not eating too many calories and am really looking for the healthy things on the menu.
i just dont want to go home from vacation and people to notice that i gained weight.

I highly doubt you'll gain noticeable weight. I was just on a 2 week vacation on a place where the only fresh vegetable choice at restaurants was coal slaw :P I usually run everyday also but got out of the habit while away. Instead I hiked mountains and am still in shape. Make sure you do some kind of exercising. I know its hard to get motivated but you'll feel better about yourself :)

I honestly think you'll be fine. It seems like you are taking lots of steps to prevent yourself from gaining weight and it should work. I think what you should try to do if possible is just load up on your fruits and veggies because most restaurants add so many things to their dishes that the fruits and veggies don't have many nutritional value. Also take runs on the beach. Running on the beach actually makes your body work more than if youo were running on say a treadmile. SO it'll be more benefical and more of a workout.
When I went to Cali this summer I actually lost weight because of all teh walking I did. I was surprised because I ate (like you) restaurant type foods most nights (I was also very careful like you were), but I think all the walking I did helped.
Best of luck :)
