Diet on a trip
Our trip will last less than a week, so we plan to pause our diet while away. During this time, how do we keep our eating habits in check?
There are ways to make your special diet plan work, even if you have to stick to it while away from home for either work or pleasure. Here are some suggestions I've made:
- Do your homework ahead of time to locate restaurants and cafes in your destinations that serve food that is compatible with your diet. Fruits, nuts, and protein powders are all great options for healthy snacks that you can bring along in case you can't find anything else.
- When dining out or attending an event, don't be shy about letting the server or host know that you have special dietary needs. They can probably make substitutions or tweaks to the menu to suit your needs.
- Even if you are unable to locate your favourite foods, you can still make nutritious selections by paying close attention to serving sizes. Eat less of the high-calorie foods and more fruits, vegetables, lean proteins, and whole grains to lose weight.
- Drinking water regularly can help you feel full and control your appetite. It also aids in sodium excretion and the avoidance of fluid retention.
- Don't worry too much; if you slip up on your diet for just a couple of days, you won't ruin all your hard work. Have fun and try to make healthy decisions as often as you can, but don't be too hard on yourself if you make a mistake.
Avoid these while on your trip:
- Consuming unhealthy amounts of sugary foods and drinks can cause weight gain and other health issues.
- Gravy and fried foods tend to be high in calories and unhealthy fats and should be eaten in moderation.
- Foods in a can or a box that have been preserved or processed and may have added salt (hidden sodium).
- Consuming an excessive amount of alcohol, which can lead to dehydration and additional weight gain.
- Overeating is a common side effect of going too long between meals or skipping them altogether.
- Make healthy decisions when you can, and pay attention to your body's signals for when it's hungry or full.
Listen to your body and make the appropriate adjustments so you can stay healthy and still have a good time on your trip. Enjoy your trip!
