It's Spring break season, so that means a lot of people are ready to take a trip after a long winter. One of the biggest concerns for travelers is often how to maintain the healthy diet and keep off the pounds they may have shed before going on vacation.
A little bit of planning ahead can go a long way. You are already going to be in an unfamiliar place, and if you approach it as an opportunity rather than a challenge, you will surely make the best of it. Here are some great tips to think about before you go:
3 tips for a happy, healthy vacation:
1. Since you’ll be out of your daily routine, make a little game out of looking for opportunities to try a new ‘healthy’ food that you can add to your daily meals when you get back home. If you leave thinking that you vacation will just be one big “temptation” then it probably will be.
2. Do a little bit of research before leaving and identify places where you will be able to access some healthy options THAT YOU ALREADY ENJOY. This includes restaurants, grocery stores, or other specialty stores. Ask the resort what options they have available on their menus that are perhaps not listed on their brochure or website. Knowing what you are getting into will help reduce the anxiety of having to figure it out while you are there. Don’t spend part of your vacation trying to figure out where the healthy options are. THAT is not fun or relaxing.
