Summer is the perfect time to get away from the busyness, and stress of your work week. Traveling new places, seeing new sights, and trying new things can be an amazing experience, but there’s always the impending worry about losing all the progress you’ve made with your nutrition. Fear not, this guide will help you tackle those vacation cravings in a way that lets you take in all that your trip has to offer.
Walk to your destinations
Walking to nearby locations is the perfect way to experience more of the sights and sounds of your destination. Not only will this help you get the most out of your trip, but it will also burn some extra calories in the process!
Share your meals
Sharing meals with friends, and loved ones is my favorite way to experience new things. By finding two things that you both want to try, you can get the most out of your dining experience while ensuring you are still on track to meet your goals.
Drink plenty of water
Staying hydrated will ensure your body is getting everything it needs. Replacing soda with water is a great way to cut a few calories out of your diet. Drinking water will also act as an appetite suppressant to help curb the cravings of the local cuisine.
Take advantage of eating out
Making healthy meals can take a lot of work and preparation. Luckily, during your time on vacation the preparation is all done for you. Don’t be afraid to try new things and take that inspiration home with you to try new recipes of your favorite vacation meals.
Vacations should be a stress free experience. Keeping these tips in mind will help you get that break you deserve without compromising your nutrition goals.
