There was one time I weighed myself on a cruise and somehow I lost 5 lbs. I remember that I was more active on the sea days because I love playing basketball and I played every day. Then the activity changed and I quickly gained back the weight that I lost. I know how difficult weight loss can be and it can vary from time to time. I have been successful at losing it but I have not found the secret to maintaining the weight once I get down there. I hope the testing goes well for you and you can get back to good health again.
That is not bad at all, 3 pounds is nothing after two weeks on cruises. You did a great job of keeping that weight off. Your doing great. Have a Great Christmas and enjoy the family.
Don, you are so good at dragging things out. You said, well I weighed my self this morning and finally, about 5 minutes later, yor talked some more about your walking and shore excursions, got work done etc. had food at speciality restaurants and so on and finally told us you were 191. Wow! My wife and I really enjoyed sitting on the edge of our seats, had a few laughs and were glad you did not put on too too much. Well done Sir! Good luck tomorrow!
Here's an imaginary Toffifay to enjoy....tastes as good as you remembered and big plus...no calories!! Have a very Merry Christmas Don...don't sweat the tests, Go Got This.
Don. So cute being real discussing the yo-yo weight. I actually don’t gain on cruises because I’m home on disability and for the most part sedentary besides chores or shopping or mild cardio. On a cruise or resort with fun mindful eating & cocktails, I’m more active walking and swimming etc so don’t gain. 3lbs not bad at all. Happy holidays to you & yours Don.
Great job maintaining. As we all know...its a challenge for all of us. Also, I will keep you in my prayers for your upcoming doctor visits. You come across as a very kind and honest person. I wish you all the best......now and in the years to come. Merry Christmas.
Love the Rudolf and friends sweater, very festive. Hope it’s helping keeping your spirits up with upcoming tests. You’ve had some incredible cruises this season and great job on not gaining much weight. All the best wishes with your tests tomorrow 💜
Don the fight for weight control is always a fight but 3 pounds while on a couple of cruises is dang good. I'm with others here my thoughts and prayers with your upcoming test.
I may have the unpopular perspective, but I say ,give yourself a break..As we get older it is harder to maintain a weight that we feel must do and society tells us to..I get the trying to be healthy, but you hardly drink alcohol, and you have a life that indulges food on cruises.. I just lost my partner of 31 years, so I am feeling more of ,do whatever you enjoy and makes you happy!! Ultimately, the cruise is time limited. You are a great guy, all the best for your health challenges and 2025!! 🥰
I always lose weight on an airplane. I am thrilled when I come home for a couple days and then the true weight comes on. Ugh, Good luck in a couple of days. But congrats to you and good luck with all of your tests
Good evening. My thoughts and prayers are with you 🙏💕 My husband and myself are going on the same trip to Iceland & Greenland that you did with Tony. Could you recommend any experiences or excursions that we shouldn’t miss? Our cruise is in August 2025 on the Emerald Princess. Thank you 😊
You'll need a few extra pounds to help your body heal from surgery. It's back up reserves ❤ You'll lose it then and you will be all the better for having a few extra. You're going to be fine 🙏 I hope you bring us along on your journey because the more people praying for you, the better. Matthew 18:20 “For where two or three are gathered together in my name, there am I in the midst of them.”
Congrats! We just got back from a 16-day cruise on Princess. I was shocked that I actually had lost .5 lbs. Honesty, I have to thank partially to Princess because I didn't really find anything that favorable to eat excessively on. Sorry to say. This was our 14th cruise with Princess and felt the food visual did not match the flavor at all. We only ate 2 times a day due to nothing really enticing for us. In the after-cruise survey, I stated that I felt that their logo "I love this!" should be changed to "I like this". I didn't really exercise per se. It just was a flavorless cruise for us.
@@user-dt8hh9ni4r Yes, a video that involves how to do low cal on cruises. The menus, etc. Unfortunately, I think most peeps, , myself included, cruise because of the wonderful dining and food experiences. So it may be a lost cause.
Three pounds is nothing. I never gain weight on a vacation. I eat the same whether at home or away. Two or three pounds is normal for a day, vacation or not.
Prayers for tomorrow and all it holds. 🙏🏻🙏🏻
Best wishes for your holidays and especially for the tests you have coming up. 🙏🏻🙏🏻🇺🇸

Merry Christmas Don,and many prayers about your tests and treatment.
Don, congratulations on minimizing the cruise weight gain. I’m thinking of you as you go through your tests tomorrow.
My admiration and congratulations on your phenomenally minimal weight gain!
I always put on 2/3 kg on a cruise😊, thus put on 10 kg over 5 years which includes 4 cruises.

Don love you Christmas sweater
Congrats on your self control! Keep it up! Regulate your sweets to no more than one a day during the get togethers!
Good luck
Congrats! We just got back from a 16-day cruise on Princess. I was shocked that I actually had lost .5 lbs.

Happens to me every cruise. Resistance is futile. I even walk the decks, or the stairs, or the hallways, or the walking machine, almost every day.
Please take care of yourself. Stay home for awhile.
Merry Christmas
Love the shirt
Don, did you hear about the woman that jumped to her death on Sky Princess yesterday. So very sad just before the Holidays.
Maybe, just maybe, you could do a cruise that addresses the food issue? Let people know how to get low cal foods or special diets?
You mean do a video not cruise
@@user-dt8hh9ni4r Yes, a video that involves how to do low cal on cruises. The menus, etc. Unfortunately, I think most peeps, , myself included, cruise because of the wonderful dining and food experiences. So it may be a lost cause.
@@user-dt8hh9ni4r Low cal options while cruising.
If you go back to your last diet results, you can be well under 180 in 2 weeks.
Praying for you 🙏! 3 lbs is not bad....😂
It's almost impossible to lose weight on vacation, especially all inclusive food like cruises.
Hi Don
yay BUMBLE!
Hmmm...I gained 1.8 on a 7 day cruise, so doubled that would be 3.8. I guess you win this round.
I have never gained a pound on a cruise, in fact I I have lost a minimum of 5 pounds on every cruise.
Three pounds is nothing. I never gain weight on a vacation. I eat the same whether at home or away. Two or three pounds is normal for a day, vacation or not.
Neither my wife nor I gain weight on a cruise. In addition to more activity, I think we snack less
Keep making good food choices!! Ask the family to NOT give you sweets.
I've never seen a man so obsessed with weight.
Anyway, best of luck with your tests.
Too much of our life revolves around food. I have friends who want to get together only for going out to eat.
