I read this story first on http://www.cruises.co.uk
I was quite shocked when I read the plans, and the comments to the story on cruises.co.uk seem to back up what I am thinking. The whole point of going on a cruise is to indulge, enjoy once-in-a-lifetime food and relax on holiday. People spend weeks before their cruise dieting and then diet for weeks after. Who wants to do the nasty diet on their cruise…..?
I agree, who wants to diet on a cruise? But I guess whatever floats your boat.
I LOVE THE IDEA. There are too many over weight people who need to work out and loose weight. I can not think of a better place to do it but on a vacation. Wish I could attend!!!
I AM SO EXCITED I have been a Weight Watchers leader for eleven years. I am so looking forward to a vacation of good fun, healthy food, and enspiring activities to help me do my job even better.
