Meghan Posted April 22, 2022 Report Share Posted April 22, 2022 Hello! My husband and I are FINALLY going on our honeymoon next Wednesday on the Mariner of the Seas, (after having to cancel back in January. After my last weigh in at my nutritionist I am down 80 pounds from my heaviest weight at 360, i'm now at 279 (fluctuating a pound or two depending on the time of day or how much i exercise that week I knew that the thrill park and the water slides on the ship had a weight limit of 300 Ibs but since i was under that hadn't really worried until i heard there are scales that weigh you as you go on. I completely understand that these are there for safety reasons, but I am terrified that I'm going to step on one and i'm going to be turned away if the scales are inaccurate. Has anyone been turned away when they knew they were under 300? I'm not planning to cookie monster mash my way through the buffet or anything, but i don't want to be so anal about what i'm eating when i'm on my first cruise ever and my honeymoon. Would appreciate any advice or assurance , or depending on your answer condolences i guess lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mathbees Posted April 22, 2022 Report Share Posted April 22, 2022 I was there in March. I weigh in at 260 and had no problem on the scale. I can't tell you if they are completely accurate or not, since they are a red light/green light setup (presumably so you're actual weight isn't displayed for the world to see). ellcee and KristiZ 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PPPJJ-GCVAB Posted April 22, 2022 Report Share Posted April 22, 2022 Hello @Meghan and welcome! I would just like to commend you for your incredible determination in your weight loss journey! I cannot comment on the scales but do hope you have a fantastic honeymoon and get to enjoy every bit of your cruise…slides and all!

Atlantix2000 Posted April 22, 2022 Report Share Posted April 22, 2022 I highly doubt Royal installed a really fancy industrial grade scale, but even if they are using the cheapest bathroom scale available, I'm sure its accurate enough for this purpose. Everyone's weight fluctuates up and down a few pounds throughout the day or week. If you weighted 299 lbs, I understand why you would be concerned that you might be turned away. However, at 279 lbs, I would be very confident about riding without any issues. Congratulations on your weight loss and enjoy your trip!

LovetoCruise87 Posted April 22, 2022 Report Share Posted April 22, 2022 They can't be accurate because I know I did not weigh what it said when we were there! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pooch Posted April 23, 2022 Report Share Posted April 23, 2022 I agree with Atlantix2000, no “weigh” they’re gonna be off by 20lbs. Currently on my own weight loss journey and struggling to get back on track after our cruise last month. Sending all good thoughts & prayers to you (and your husband) for a wonderful cruise complete with water slides!!! And continued progress (not perfection).
