Cruise Yourself Slim is a new book about avoiding the seemingly unavoidable weight gain of people on today’s food-laden cruise ships. The book contains the results of a major new survey of cruise passengers conducted using the 500,000-strong database of world-leading cruise selling site cruise.co.uk .

Authors Martin and Marion Shirran, themselves confirmed cruisers, are weight management specialists who run a clinic in Spain. Their idea for the book proved an immediate hit with cruise experts, and the contents include:
The story of Sarah Jayne Price, a travel consultant who lost more than half her body weight using the Shirrans’ methods and STILL cruises without gaining weight
A chapter by Senior Lecturer in Cruise Tourism Patsy Morgan, from Southampton Solent University in Europe’s ‘Cruise Capital’ City
A chapter by ‘Cruise Confidential’ author Brian Bruns

The book, which is available on Kindle and Audible as well as paperback, includes countless tips and tricks to help cruisers avoid piling on the pounds. It takes a look at how it is possible to eat and drink the sumptuous food presented on modern cruise liners yet still minimise any weight gain …while of course not cutting out all your fun!
Cruise passengers’ thoughts about onboard eating, as revealed in the survey, are an eye-opener!
CRUISE YOURSELF SLIM is published February 5, perfectly timed to help people plan for the cruises they will doubtless be booking now the festive season is behind us.
