Holiday Easting Habits Almost Always Make Us Bigger!
It would appear that nearly half of regular package holiday customers gain weight when on holiday, with men piling on the pounds more than women. If you want to keep trim, you should probably watch what you eat during a visit to Cyprus and Turkey since their delicious national cuisine is quite rich – nut patries soaked in honey, slow roasted meat and kebabs – all of which is fabulous and fairly calorie laden.  If you are keen to stick to a strict diet, head out to Germany, where on average, visitors lost nearly 2kg during an average holiday!

Below are a few statistics about weight and holidays – “I’ve had enough thank you!” might be a useful phrase to learn in any language.
