#15 - How to Drop Vacation Weight Gain Fast!

Ever come back from vacation feeling kinda... puffy? That’s not fat — it’s mostly water weight, and it happens to almost everyone. I gained 7 lbs in 5 days on our last vacation and I even worked out and ate 90% on plan! Here’s why: you’re probably eating more salty foods, drinking more alcohol, and loading up on carbs — all of which make your body hold onto water. Flying doesn’t help either — long flights and sitting for hours can cause fluid to pool in your lower body. And if your sleep’s off, or you’re skipping workouts, that adds to the bloat. The good news? It’s temporary. And we’ll talk about how to drop it — fast!
