subject: Adult Weight Loss Weekend Getaways Galore! How much weight can you lose over a weekend? [print this page] With the Biggest Loser style retreats offering weight loss fitness packages, a new concept has emerged--the adult weight loss weekend getaway. Call it a "girlfriend getaway", "couples retreat", or your own personal fitness weekend getaway. The theme of the 2.5 day vacation is fitness, nutrition and fun. Weekend schedules focus on getting fit and losing fat, by a regimen of 5 meals daily with 5-7 hours of exercise.
How much weight can you lose over a weekend? That really isn't the point here. Primarily, you learn how to engage in enjoyable activities that are on foot in scenic environments like the beaches of Florida, California, even South Carolina. Maybe you go to a secluded mountainous area to hike and get away from it all.
Then there is Vegas, baby! The Las Vegas fitness and weight loss weekend would involve getting a pedestrian view of the world's newest, most extravagant hotels and famous casinos. By the time you trek the entire strip, climb stairs in lieu of escalators, and hike to the Hoover Dam, you might even sight Elvis while burning a few calories.
The weekend fitness getaway theme is also about nutrition and how to order out sensibly. If on a hike, you would learn how to prepare and pack the right nutritious foods to take along. Focus is on planning to eat and being active while keeping control. Control comes from planning. You know you are going to need to eat, right?
Nowadays, it is quite common to carry a personal water bottle. By now, we all know the importance of proper hydration. Your brain is 25% more focused and your thinking is that much more clear. But what about taking along your own preplanned nutrition so as not to leave that to chance?
Soon, the trend will follow as with personal water bottles. Adults will learn to carry personal coolers wherever they go. Whether going to work, shopping, gym, or to the golf course, everyone performs better when the right foods are available at the right times.
Back to the weight loss concept for weekend fitness. If you know that you can only lose 1.5 lbs 3 lbs per week safely and effectively keep it off then you can you do the math for 2.5 days. Just realize that anytime you are dehydrated the scales can show an erroneous weight drop that will return once your body is properly hydrated. As referenced above, you would not think clearly or function well if you kept this up for long.
Just how much weight should you expect to lose over the weekend? Not nearly what you need to reach your goal, but what a fun way to kick-start for the rest of the weight you need to lose. At the end of the weekend you will have had a practical lesson in how to live a lifestyle of health and wellness while having fun. Additional bonuses include a new photo album for your Facebook titled, "My Vegas Weight Loss Weekend", and if you're really luckyan Elvis sighting!
