Yes, you read that right—I lost 4.5kg on a cruise.

And no, it wasn’t from food poisoning or sea sickness. In this episode, I’m sharing exactly how we navigated two weeks of all-you-can-eat buffets, limited food choices, and constant temptation... and still disembarked lighter, clearer, and calmer.

We talk about how we planned our mealtimes, made the best possible choices with what was available, and why self-control was easier when we remembered how bad we felt when we didn’t use it.

You’ll hear the truth about what happened when we gave in to the grains, sugar, and processed options—spoiler alert: the aches, bloating, constipation, and crankiness came right back.

If you’ve ever felt like holidays have to mean falling off the wagon, this episode is your permission to rethink that. You can still enjoy yourself without undoing all your progress—and it might even feel better than you think.
