Hi Portia,
As for your urges, I think if you ate something small before bed with a Fibercon, it might help. Like a rice cake or bowl of cream of rice. That way, your stomach has soluble fiber in it and doesn't get upset because it's empty early in the morning.
I know firsthand the anxiety before a cruise. My fiancee and I got engaged on one last year and I remember I was worried about it. But, the good things are: there's bathrooms all over the place, and there's alot of different stuff to eat. At the sit down dinners, you have to be careful, but just be to load up on the bread they give you first! Usually they have alot of choices at dinner. I think you will probably even be able to get egg-beaters for breakfast, too. If not, best to pack the oatmeal.
We go to Vegas alot, too, and my stomach always gets nervous before we go! (It's also a 4 hour drive with very few rest stops & towns!!). But, somehow, I always seem to survive!!
Once you are on that ship, I bet you will feel much more relaxed. For me, the anxiety of vacations are half the battle!
Have fun!
Laurel
