Travel Alert: Take Your Healthy Eating Habits with YouSummer —the busiest traveling season of the year— is quickly approaching . If you're like a lot of people, you tend to eat more healthily at home than you do when traveling for business or pleasure. But it doesn't have to be that way. With a little planning and, yes, a little self control, you can eat just as well on the road as you do at home–and come home weighing the same as you did when you left! Wholesome Snacks that Pack WellA good way to ensure that you have wholesome food available to eat when hunger strikes you during your travels is to pack and carry your own healthy snacks. Excellent choices include Think Thin energy bars, dried fruit, raw almonds, trail mix, salmon jerky and hard fruits such as apples and pears (which travel better than softer fruits such as grapes and bananas). Beware of LayoversInside the airport, steer clear of the many fried food options and home in on the fruits and vegetables. If you are able to locate a Chinese restaurant, order a vegetable stir fry, perhaps with shrimp, chicken or tofu. Even some of the fast food restaurants in airports offer salads and fruit these days. And a growing number of airports contain restaurants that serve fruit smoothies. Don't Overeat When Eating OutWhen eating at restaurants during your travels, there are some simple things you can do to avoid consuming too many calories. Say "no" to soft drinks and alcohol and drink water or unsweetened iced tea instead. Order a salad and eat it before you entree arrives. And don't automatically clean your plate. The portions at many restaurants are absurdly large. Eat slowly and stop when you feel comfortably full, not stuffed. Use these simple tips for eating healthy while traveling and you will stay lean even if home cooking is a rare treat for you! |
