How Can I NOT Gain Weight on Vacation?

The sunny days of summer are here at last, and that can only mean it’s time for your annual family vacation. 

If you’re like many women who struggle with weight, you approach your vacation with mixed emotions. You’re excited about the opportunity to get away and relax, spend time with people you love, and take a break from the routines of your daily life. 

But at the same time, vacation fills you with dread and even a bit of anxiety. Because in the past, vacations have left you feeling discouraged with a couple of extra pounds hanging on for dear life. 

For some reason vacation weight gain happens crazy fast—within a week! But those stubborn pounds seem to take much longer to come off again. So, what’s a girl to do?

Most of the time you end up trying a crash diet. Then another, then another. And before you know it, you’re stuck in an all-or-nothing mindset. 

But what if you could approach your summer vacation differently this year? What if you could go into your week off with a plan to help you not gain weight?

I’m here to tell you it’s possible to take your vacation without stress or worry that you’ll undo all the progress you’ve made on your goals this year. 

I’ll show you how to make a plan for a fun and healthy(ish) vacation that won’t plunge you back into the diet mentality when you get home. 

Avoiding vacation weight gain doesn’t have to be complicated or painful. And you can be ready for whatever your trip throws at you. 

Stuck in an airport? You’re ready for that.

On a long car ride with only gas station foods to eat? You’ve got a plan.

Out to eat at a restaurant where the only veggie on the menu is fries? No problem.
