You don't have to just accept that you'll come back from your vacation a few pounds heavier or a little bit lazier. Stay on track, even when you're "off" with these tips.
Store nutritious breakfast and snack foods (yogurt, fruit, string cheese) in your room’s mini-fridge, says Susan B. Dopart, RD, author of A Recipe for Life by the Doctor’s Dietitian, so you always have healthy choices on hand.
No fitness center? Nix public transportation and explore the neighborhood you’re in on foot. "Not only is it built-in exercise, but you’ll discover cool things you wouldn’t normally notice when whizzing by in a car," Dopart says.
Pick and choose what you want to indulge in when you’re at an ahh-mazing out-of-town restaurant, Dopart advises. So it’s either a glass or two of wine from the vineyard you’re staying at or the chef’s signature chocolate dessert.
