No, you
don’t need to find a portable scale that is TSA approved. Here are some easy things
you can do when work calls you away from home:
1.MOST IMPORTANT: don’t expect to make
your fitness gains while travelling. That is unrealistic. There are just too
many factors that you can’t control. Instead, just look to maintain your current
position. This alone will alleviate stress!
2.Think more along the lines of healthy
snacks, and make sure you have enough! We make mistakes when we are without
food. Best options:
-Nuts, any
kind!
-Rice Cakes
-Healthy
Meal Replacement Bars
-Bring your
Protein Powder with you (allocate in plastic bags for correct serving size)
-Easy to eat
veggies (baby carrots, sweet mini peppers, baby cucumbers). Yes they need to be
refrigerated. But you can allocate room in your carry on for them and you will
be fine if they are out of the fridge for a small amount of time.***NOTE: You can always buy these veggies
anywhere. Even Starbucks has a veggie tray.
-Hard
Boiled-Eggs (You can find these are Starbucks too!)
-Travel
Almond Butter/Peanut Butter (You can get these in little packs now!)
-Apples
-Dark
Chocolate…you read that right. Have a dark chocolate bar with you (or a few)
that is 75% cacao or above. If you are going to indulge have a few squares of
dark chocolate. Get crazy and put some almond butter on top! Now you can skip
the desert knowing you have something sweet to eat that won’t ruin the day.
Want to
really step it up? Invest in a Meal Management Bag. We like 6 Pack Bags. If you
take the ice packs out you can bring them on a plane!
If your
definition of travel simply means a lot of time behind the wheel, this Meal
Management Bag (with your food/snacks inside) needs to be with you at all
times. Put it on the passenger seat! It will remind you of what you should be
eating. Or, go to Target and buy one of their plastic containers.
