Great advice from all of you. Thanks

Great review, John. Glad you had a wonderful cruise. Don’t you just love it when you can actually see those “ postcard moments “ in real time?

Hmmm, just a thought. Could we sue the cruise lines for causing a weight gain too? I feel sorry for the guy but like everyone else said, with his previous neuropathy condition, shouldn’t he have been aware of what could happen? And to refuse immediate treatment?? I don’t think he will win his lawsuit but I do feel sorry for him.

Dear Shari, We are on the same wave length about lots of stuff. You know what I mean. LOL.

And if person is awake while in basket, wouldn't the person have a heart attack just from the experience of being airlifted like that???

Wow, must have been A terrifying experience for his family.

I am also so sorry to hear about the stenosis and arthritis, Shari. It does sound like you do have some control over your eating, more than I do. I like to sample everything, which is why we always eat at the buffet. Also, we don't want to be confronted with the bread and butter . We like to go to the buffet, eat and get out quickly. We don't like to sit for long in the dining room. However, on a four day cruise, I do come home at least 4 pounds heavier, although half of it comes off during the week when I resume my usual eating. I think , also, a lot of it is salt and retaining fluids. Wow, Jan, only 2 pounds. Congratulations, that's excellent. I would be thrilled with that.

I really need to do the stairs , rather than elevators. Also, my walking on the Promenade Deck is certainly not as good as going to the gym and working up a sweat. So, now I've got a couple of goals for our next cruise. Thanks for the tips, gymbrat.

Wow, excellent tips. Didn’t realize cruise ships were so accommodating. I can’t picture myself bring the mayo and snacks . I guess if you’re really determined, it’s possible to keep the pounds off but for me, it’s always been a pound up per day. I really do need to try some of these tips. Great article.

Love, love, love the Brothers. Now that would be an awesome cruise. Hmmmmmm.

What a sad, sad tragedy. ???
