So many of us have a hard time keeping up with workouts and healthy eating while traveling.  Your routine is off and all self control is gone :)  One treat turns into two and two into four.  I know how it goes!  SO what do you do to keep yourself on track while away from home?  What has worked for some of you?  I have found that these little things help and I'm going to try to stick them while away this week! 

1.  First thing Im going to do is reset my expectations.  My workouts and my food plan are NOT going to be the same as when I'm at home.  They just can't be.  I mean I'm on VACATION for goodness sake :). 

2.  Im using Beachbody on Demand.  I mean come on how easy is it to take your ipad or tablet to the gym and hit play.  NO excuses on that one!!

3.  Anytime I can walk somewhere...I will walk...take the steps...whatever I have to do....no laziness :).

4.  Drink TONS of water...the more water I drink the less food I will be tempted to pick at.

5.  I will give myself one meal a day that I can just eat and not worry about what I'm eating.  It's vacation and you're on vacation to enjoy yourself!! :)

Packing!! Yikes I never thought packing for a family of 5 could be such a HUGE task!! I have spent the past week making lists, crossing off lists and making new lists!! I have made countless trips to the store to pick up odds and ends that were not on said lists. I have squeezed in all of the contents of our lives for the next week and have three very excited little people :) We are off for a week of sun and relaxation! :)

Meditation boosts metabolism!!!  Researchers from the Benson-Henry Institute for Mind/Body Medicine are saying that regular practice will actually help to keep that waistline of your slim!  Reasons for this are a reduction of stress, inflammation, cancer and trauma!  They also found a positive response for insulin production and energy production!  What more reason do you need to get started today!  There are many different types of meditation out there.  Find one that works for you and start to practice a little each day.  I know this is still something I struggle with but love the challenge!  Namaste :)
