Slimming down for a holiday is a typical weight loss goal of millions of people across the world, and while that can be challenging, maintaining that hard-earned weight loss while away is another story.

But diet expert Rosemary Conley CBE, has offered some useful guidelines for breakfast, lunch and dinner that will ensure people continue their hard work.

Breakfast

Rosemary suggested taking time to enjoy the range of fruits on offer when visiting exotic destinations.

“If you are somewhere tropical, enjoy the vast variety of local fruits,” she said.

“Eating a plateful of papaya, a selection of melon, plus passion fruit and mango is amazing with some fresh yogurt. A fabulous way to start the day!”

Dinner

Rosemary offered up two suggestions depending on whether a person prefers sweet or savoury foods.

“If you love a dessert, select a light starter and skip the bread roll that is offered,” she said.

“Choose what you like for the main course and fill up with delicious salads and/or vegetables. “Then, choose the dessert you really love. This is what being on holiday is all about!”

If a person prefers savoury foods, she recommended “spoiling” themselves with the starter and skip the dessert.

“You will be burning off your gorgeous treats, while loving the fun of activity.”
