Staying Fit on Vacation

I'm headed out to Chicago tomorrow for a long weekend get away. To say I'm frazzled is an understatement. I'm determined not to waste all the hard work I've put in thus far. So I came up with a list of tips to remain fit while on vacation.

- Share meals with your friends. This will save money too!
- Order half sizes or lunch portions while at dinner.
- Walking and site-seeing is your friend! Skip trains and cabs and try to walk as much as possible.
- Allow yourself one treat a day to curb deprivation.
- Water is your best friend! Make sure you drink 8 glasses or more.
- Remember the "5 A Day" rule and eat 5 servings of fruits and vegetables. This will provide enough fiber to keep you feeling fuller longer.
- Only eat when you are hungry. Don't fall into the "I'm on vacation" mentality and over indulge.
- Fit in 15 min workouts. Pinterest has great home workouts if your hotel doesn't have a gym. Here is one I plan to try:

Wish me luck!
