I did it. Yeah there was a lot of stuff to tempt me, but there was also a lot of legal food. Look, you need to decide what is more important. Does not eating dessert mean your anniversary cruise is less meaningful? No. Is being thin more important to you than having a dessert "because it is a special week"? I hope so. There will always be something in your life that is a reason not to stay on board. Only you can decide if Atkins is important enough. But don't think I am inflexible, I have done two holidays and for one mydecision was to be good; the other I decided was worth going off plan for two weeks. When I went on the cruise there was nothing there that was worth breaking my dedication to the WOE. Last year when I went to Italy for my 25th I felt differently. I went off plan and I am not sorry for the weeks in Italy. The food was heavenly and I didn't gain a pound. The problem was that when I came back I had a very difficult time getting back on plan and for that, I am sorry.
