Equinox - Dietary Queries

[The Shutterbug]

Hi!

 

We are counting down the days until we sail on Equinox :)

 

I have searched but the answer still eludes me :confused: lol

 

Is there anywhere on board that you can get a green smoothie? (ie kale, spinach etc with water) I have become quite addicted to our nutri bullet.

 

Also is Almond or Coconut Milk in the buffet? (I know there is Soya milk but I can't take that)

 

Thanks a lot :)

You can ask at the Aqua Spa cafe if they do that kind of smoothie, but don't count on it. I've not seen either coconut milk or almond milk on board.

My wife has Celiac and we always send in the Special Needs form. Not sure if it apply to a 'preference' which is not a diet requirement. But here is the link to the form, you can give it a try.

At the bottom of the form is an area for 'other' needs, you can put your question there and they do respond back.

I have gluten sensitivity, and am sugar free, grain free, soy free, dairy free etc. and am considered a "health nut" by family and friends. I consume a large share of green smoothies myself, almost daily.

 

When I go on a cruise, I also take a vacation from most of my regimen, except I continue to be gluten-free due to necessity and because Celebrity makes it so convenient. I enjoy myself and eat desserts, and potatoes, rice, crepes, and all the goodies I don't eat at home. I pay for it, feeling more sluggish for a couple weeks, but it's worth it. Once I get back on track, it feels good too!

 

I have never been able to obtain anything like a veggie smoothie on any ship, even in spa-type restaurants. The only thing resembling a health smoothie contains yogurt, sugar syrup, and fruit. I do pack a shaker bottle (non-electric) and a powerered green drink that I add to water easy day.

Ha! I could have wrote that first sentence! I have turned my health around this past year through diet, actually lifestyle change as its not a diet :)

 

Your second paragraph is good to read though :) I was just going to have an eating holiday LOL! but was feeling guilty, good to know other 'Health Freaks' do it too ;)

 

Thanks everyone, that is a great help :)

Lol, yes!! There are a few of us freaks here and there! I don't drink alcohol either, but I'll be imbibing, since we will have the premium drink package. I'll stick with the low sugar selections, vodka, and tequila. I hope I don't pay too dearly!! :)

 

Don't feel guilty, life is too short!

 

Happy cruising! (and eating!)
