Any type of travel, from a weekend with family in the next state to a long trip to a foreign country, disrupts routine. Getting out of your routine is a good thing. It can allow for rest and relaxation, new sights and experiences and expanding your perspective. There will be new foods to try and new activities to embrace. However, breaking routine can make it easy to throw caution to the wind and neglect the healthful eating and exercise habits you’ve worked so hard to establish. The key is to find a healthy balance. Sure, it’s challenging to eat right and move enough when traveling, but a little bit of planning can go a long way to make sure that you stay on track with your eating and exercise habits when you hit the road. It’ll be great to return home with a sense of satisfaction and accomplishment, ready to settle back into your healthy routines.
