Hey everyone,
Has anyone tried to continue weight loss or maintain their weight while staying at someone else's house for vacation? It's similar to going to a dinner party, but for an extended period of time...
Every summer, I visit my own family as well as my partner's family. These trips last up to 1-2 months, during which I stay at the respective home of the family. When I visit my own family, I have free agency over my diet/exercise. However, when visiting my partner's family, it's tricky as I don't want to refuse their home-cooking, and I just generally feel uncomfortable demanding changes to how I (or they) eat. I feel that I'm a guest and shouldn't impose on how they do things in their house, especially given it's my partner's family. The food they cook is very well-rounded for someone with a good metabolism, but I gain weight easily unless I count calories. And at their house, I'm unable to accurately count calories as I'm not cooking the meals and I'm not able to measure my food. In the past, I would just try my best to eyeball everything, but I always end up coming back home 5+ pounds heavier. It's not the worst, but it gets demoralizing to have to re-lose the weight I worked hard to lose. In addition to these technical issues with calorie counting, they like to go out for snacks/desserts as a family. While it's true that I can refuse these things, it gets hard to keep saying no because I start feeling like a buzzkill... Does anyone have tips or advice on what I should do? Thanks in advance!
