Healthy Business Travel

April 28, 2008 | Permalink

Rewarding yourself for putting up with a long security line and delayed flight by hitting the Cinnabon counter may be good for your mood, but certainly not for your waistline, as one business traveler found out.  And after a long day at meetings, the easiest thing to do is to head back to the hotel, order a pizza for dinner, and call it a night.  But these choices may make you unhappy in the long run.  So how can you pile on the frequent flier miles without packing on pounds?

According to health experts, the key is planning ahead.  Have an idea of a nutritious meal that sounds good to you before you get to the restaurant.  Bring exercise DVDs or make a commitment to do push-ups or sit-ups in the hotel each night.  Pack snacks like nuts or fruit to hold you over during delays, traffic, and other unforeseen hold-ups.

These are all simple things that will make you healthier when you travel.  And while it’s easier said than done, if you plan ahead you’ll be more likely to have the motivation and resources to follow through.
