Ten Ways to Deny Your Vacation Weight Gain
Gain a little weight on vacation? No you didn’t. Here’s some denial affirmations to tell yourself.
1. It’s not fat it’s sand trapped in my suit.
2. It’s not fat it’s my new necklace made of shells.
3. Since it’s on my back and I can’t see it it doesn’t exist, thus, it’s not fat.
4. It’s not fat it’s “carry on” luggage. It will store underneath my seat conveniently out of sight.
5. I gained muscle from all the walking.
6. It’s not fat it’s the happiness and contentment I found on vacation that I’ve crammed into my soul.
7. My body is still on Pacific Time and my scale is on Eastern Standard so it’s just a 3 pound time difference.
8. It’s not official weight gain until one week AFTER vacation ends.
9. It’s still cold here so I need the extra weight for warmth.
10. The scale calls it three extra pounds, I call it a souvenir.
LOL How about “It’s extra seawater/poolwater from all the swimming I did”.
That’s funny. I just got back from some time away (not exactly a vacation) and did indeed gain a few lbs. But I’m not gonna fret about it (for the first time EVER) and just get back on track now that I am home.
This was adorable. And I agree, it’s usually temporary gain anyway so I never step on the scale til a week AFTER a va-k!
Too cute! Thankfully its usually temporary and with a litle extra work it comes off in a few weeks. As long as we don’t go too crazy!
11. I’ll lose the weight after all the laundry and unpacking I have to do for a family of five. : )
Love this post! Thanks for making us feel better after all those “spring break” splurges!
Thanks guys! Such a drag.
