I recently travelled out of town and had to really strive to stay focused on my journey. The food temptations from the Chicagoland area were great. No matter where I turned, there was food around me, and not the healthiest of choices. There were pizza, fries, pies, ice cream, fast food restaurants, and some of my favorite sit-down restaurants. Wow...what a temptation I faced!!!
I was still able to squeeze in some time to exercise but I tell you, it was a chore. I even gained about 3 pounds by eating my favorite foods. Not to fear...I will get those pounds off soon. I won't let them take me off course.
Here are some tips from the "588 Days! Balancing Act of Faith, Family, & Finding Time for ME" book that might help you on your next vacation or trip.
"Often times when we travel, we tend to eat at many fast food places and high scaled restaurants that we’ve been dying to try. Since we are not back there in the kitchen preparing our own meals and monitoring its ingredients, we have to rely on all of the knowledge and expertise that we’ve learned up to this point."
"When you are in the process of booking your hotel reservation, look at the hotel’s website or ask the reservation specialist if the hotel has a fitness center located either in the hotel or nearby. You can inquire as to what type of equipment they have or how many machines they have at their facility. Some hotels only have 1 treadmill and a couple of free weights. On the other hand, some may have several treadmills, elliptical, stationary bikes, free weights, and workbenches. Either way, you should have enough equipment to get in some type of workout while you are on your trip."
YOU Can do this!!! Take your journey with you...You won't regret it!
Remember...YOU Are Worth It!
Peace,
