Prepare Food in Advance
- Prepare by bringing your usual supplements, nuts, protein powder, and bars for emergencies.
- This helps avoid unhealthy choices when only limited food options are available.
Maintain Eating Schedule and Hydrate
- Drink plenty of water and keep eating small meals every three hours despite reduced hunger.
- This maintains your metabolism and counters the dehydrating effects of salty vacation foods.
Tackle Buffets Strategically
