Staying on Your Diet While on Vacation the 100 Calorie Way by:Susie Trimble

Every December, I pack up Grandma and the kids and we take a cruise vacation

. Last December we sailed out of Fort Lauderdale on Holland America's Eurodam. It was our first time sailing with Holland America and we absolutely loved it. The Eurodam was a brand new ship and a step above what I was used to. For example, I never liked those plastic tumblers and coffee cups you have to use at most cruises' buffets. The Eurodam had real glasses and real coffee cups. A minor detail to most folks, but I'm picky that way. What else? The fresh flower arrangements throughout the ship were amazing! I love fresh flowers and make sure to have them in my home all the time. Fresh flowers create a positive environment and they uplift my spirit.

The Eurodam has a special feature that we thoroughly enjoyed. You can reserve a private cabana on the Observation Deck in The Retreat. Can you imagine, your own special spa retreat overlooking the sea? We were treated like royalty. In addition to delicious fruit cabobs daily, we were served an exceptionally special treat every day at 4:00; decadent chocolate covered strawberries and champagne. Of course, you can guess where we were at 4:00 everyday! I've had chocolate covered strawberries before, but these were to die for! The Eurodam is doing it right! Picture yourself sailing in the wide open azure sea, the warm sun kissing your body, the wind in your hair AND chocolate covered strawberries and champagne. Now that's living.

It gets better! Chocolate covered strawberries are actually a low calorie food at about 100 calories for each sweet and juicy, red ripened strawberry. Champagne is only 100 calorie for 5 oz. So we could have this delicious treat for about 200 calories and still lose weight while on our cruise! YUM!

OMG! Guess what else we found on The Eurodam? Fresh squeezed orange juice AND fresh pressed carrot juice. Y'all may not know this, but fresh fruit and vegetable juices are a veritable fountain of youth. We're not talking about bottled juices, we're talking about fresh, live juices brimming with live enzymes and life-giving phytonutrients, vitamins and minerals.

You may have heard that juicing is good for you, but take my word for it, juicing miraculously erases any wrinkles you may have on your face. Your eyes will sparkle with energetic vitality and you will look 10-20 years younger. Yeh, right, you may be thinking, but it's really, really true!

Go out today, buy a Juice Extractor and a Citrus Juicer , start juicing and let me know how it changes your life. The transformation is absolutely amazing. Try it for one week and let me know how it works for you. I know you will be emailing me with your amazing results. I can't wait!!!

I like vegetable juices like carrot, celery, tomato and cucumber. Tammy likes apple, grape, carrot, mango, papaya and pineapple. Each vegetable and fruit have their own special phytonutrient that will nourish your body and make you feel wonderful. Juice a variety of fruits and vegeatble making sure to use the colors of the rainbow!
