Holistic Holiday at Sea - Marcella

I am completely flummoxed. As Derek posted, we've returned from our life-transforming, awesome vacation the Holistic Holiday at Sea (and pre-signed up for next year, I might add).

Seven days of three 5-course gourmet vegan meals a day, PLUS buffets at two meals a day, INCLUDING two desserts, PLUS a late-night vegan ice cream social almost every night...and I've lost about 2 pounds of fat. Really, this is astonishing. I mean one night I actually ate 10 courses, from changing tables and starting over...and more than once I got seconds...Take a look at some of the freaking fabulous food we ate and also be shocked and amazed:
