I hate the hotel "free" breakfasts....



Recommended Posts

They certainly are a CARB-FEST aren't they!?! I've seen a few with eggs -- usually scrambled, but occasionally hard-boiled -- some questionable sausage patties, but not much to offer in the way of healthy Protein. I usually pack some instant breakfast packets and get my low-fat milk from the hotel.

The motel we always stay at when we go for my Dads and my DH's medical check ups, has a similar breakfast...but they always have some yogurt, and some fruit---so I usually opt for that. Most of the time I will take the yogurt to eat for breakfast, and carry off a banana or an apple for snacking later!!! But back in the day---I would have had a bagel with a couple of donuts for dessert!!!!

I love them! I can usually find yougurt and a nutrigran or some ceral bar. I love loading up my purse for snacks/ meals throughout the day. Free food is great.

Chelle--I'm with you on this one! My son and I didn't eat at our hotel at all during our trip over the holidays. The hotels don't want to lose too much money, so they serve more inexpensive carbs rather than spending their "dough" on protein! LOL!

I work for the Hilton Brand. Embassy Suites have alot to choose from. And Most hotels that say "Free breakfast" or "Free internet" is not...its included in your room fee.

Also the Hilton brands are doing this thing where you can figure out what to eat by color.

I was about to say what Dream did.. it's not really free.. and our local Holiday Inn, if you say you don't want the 'free breakfast', they give you a rate discount.

Thanks, I will tell them that next time. And just buy some shakes and Protein Bars for the room.

      Hi everyone! I’m brand new here. I just went through all my pre-op requirements per my insurance company and now everything has been submitted and I’m just waiting for final approval and my surgery date. I’ve been doing research, watching YouTube videos, TikTok’s, ect.. trying to prepare my mind and what to expect so I’ll be ready for the surgery. I was so sure and so set and so ready and excited. However, now that I’ve done everything & it’s almost here, I am sooooooo scared! I know why I want it bc I’ve tried everything and I just don’t feel like I can lose weight by myself. I’m tired of being overweight my entire life. I’m miserable, but I keep psyching myself out afraid of GERD bc I know how that can be and I don’t want to have to get a bypass after already gaining the courage to even get VSG. I’m scared of complications like I’mgoing to regret doing it and be depressed that I didn’t just be more disciplined and try again to lose the weight on my own even sitting here typing this knowing in my mind i just can’t and don’t possess the discipline. I’m also afraid I won’t be able to handle the restrictions of the sleeve. What do I eat? I don’t know how to eat healthy really and don’t enjoy healthy food. I don’t know how to do this! I feel so defeated!Someone tell me they felt anything similar to this or am I not ready? I thought I was. I am so tired of being sick and tired and so tired of myself and so tired of being stuck and stuck in this body and somebody different on the outside from what I feel inside. I just want to ball up and cry.
