The school holidays are in full swing and many families travel. But the holidays don’t have to be synonymous with out-of-control eating and a total lack of exercise. It is possible to spend this rest time in a more regulated way, but not necessarily on trial, but with conscious choices.
Let’s start by pointing out that you don’t need a gym to work out. It is possible to jog with the children, stroll down the street – even for half an hour –, play beach tennis on the beach with friends, or even go for a walk with the dog.
In order not to fall into the trap of being sedentary during the holidays, look for an activity that you enjoy and that is plausible to do with the participation of children, for example. The important thing is to keep the body moving. To have a better life, the secret is to have balance.
As far as diet is concerned, we don’t need to eat everything we want at once. When we talk about balanced nutrition, we have to think about the choices we make.
For example, we can and should prioritize fresh over processed foods and not eat everything we want in one meal, as well as avoid consuming some processed foods.
7 tips for healthy eating on vacation
Some tips on how to maintain a healthy diet on vacation:
- 1. Think about your meals
If you already know you’re going to have something different for lunch or dinner, check and balance your breakfast.
- 2. Always have a healthy snack on hand
When we are very hungry, it is normal to look for fatty things or “the first thing we see in front of us”, so having something healthy with you is always a good way out.
- 3. Eat every 3 hours
To avoid feeling overly hungry, it’s important to remember to eat small portions frequently throughout the day.
- 4. Plan your treats
If you really miss eating a treat, stick to one a day.
- 5. Hydrate
Remember that hunger can be synonymous with dehydration, so stay hydrated so you don’t feel that constant hunger and horse, plus, drinking water is important to ensure your body is functioning well.
- 6. Avoid eating out of boredom or anxiety
Think before you eat, because we may overeat just because we have nothing to do.
- 7. Always remember your purpose
As much as a rest, remembering your goal helps with self-control.
