Preparation
Pack healthful snacks: Though you’ll want to sample the local flavor, having a few healthy snacks on hand like low calorie power bars, turkey jerky, baby carrots, or fruit, will keep you energized and help prevent overindulging.Stay active: Be sure to incorporate lots of physical activity into your daily itinerary, whether it’s a trip to the hotel gym, water sports, or a walking tour of the city you’re visiting.Keep splurging to a minimum: “If you plan for one splurge a day, you’re also more likely to choose wisely and think about the foods you really want rather than just stuffing yourself with anything in site,” Jen Andrus, a New York-based nutritionist tells Fodors.Don’t over-do it at the bar: Beachy drinks like pina coladas and margaritas are packed with calories. If you must have an umbrella drink, keep it to one and then switch to lower calorie drinks like bubbly, white wine, and light beer, Connie Diekman of the American Dietetic Association, tells WebMD.
