Now that food is not the focus, I've found great yoga studios and spin studios in my favorite cities while still enjoying great food. It's very freeing. Oh and I love it when you put before and after pics in your posts.

I ate so much while in Hawaii, but a lot of it was fresh fish, mac nuts and pineapple (and Ono Gelato, thanks to you!), and I was still staying pretty active, so I didn't even feel that bad about it.

Because we stay at Bed and Breakfasts most of the time, we don't have food in our room and only eat breakfast, lunch and dinner. The past couple of years I didn't gain, I sometimes even lost weight. <br /><br />But I do think vacations are also a bit about letting go of the daily routine except with maintenance instead of letting yourself go completely.
