I'm actually hoping not to gain weight on Pip. What with all the fresh fish and fruit, the swimming and the heat. I am probably kidding myself--I fully intend right now to go to the gym while on the ship and work our every day. But I also know that I hardly ever actually exercise when I'm on holidays, no matter what.

There's also all that alcohol to contend with, calorie-wise. I'm hardly drinking at all right now--I am going to be a very cheap drunk on this cruise!
