This week I am on vacation. My family is traveling to Myrtle Beach for some much needed family time. We are only 1 day into our trip and haven’t even made it to the beach yet but I’ve already encountered how hard it can be to eat clean while traveling. I also feel that I have an advantage because I have so much knowledge about food choices already. But to someone just starting out it can be a frustrating time. So let me help you sift through the crap!

So we made it to Wyethville last night and stayed at a Holiday Inn Express. The hotel was brand new and very nice but the free continental breakfast was absolutely disgraceful. The breakfast consisted of pre made frozen perfectly round eggs that had been warmed up, sasuage patties, pancakes from a machine, fruit loops, cinnamon toast crunch, oatmeal with maple sugar, yogurt with fruit, bagels and cinnamon buns. There were literally bananas that would qualify as the only clean food. So instead of eating what was there I chose to hit the car for my shakeology, shaker cup and bottle of water. I mixed up a shake, ate a banana and called it a day! I had 2 choices I could make. I could eat a piece of whole grain toast, an egg patty and some yogurt and say I ate healthy or I could of done what I did. Truthfully if I would of chosen what I thought was the healthy option I would still be shooting myself in the foot. Processed bread, fake eggs, and fake sugar in the yogurt would of killed my sugar for the day, left me bloated, tired and hungry! Plus I don’t want to waste a good cheat meal on that!!
Update: So we made it to the hotel, we hit up the grocery store and are all settled in for the day. Here is the plan that I crafted for the week. Then, I went down to the gym to scope out the weights so that I had an idea of how I was going to do my Beast workout this week. Low and behold there are no stinkin weights! Only a few machines and mostly cardio. So I pouted for a little but now I’ve decided that I’m doing T25 this entire week with Matt! We are going to do the Beta Phase and I’m totally going to bring it for each and every workout. Plus I’m going to do a little beach workout at some point this week as well.
So while I did make a plan of attack for the week, I am also realizing that I still need to be flexible and that it’s not always going to workout the way I want it to!
So onward and upward. Check back for more vacation tips as the week goes on!!!
I can hear the rush between the lines, Melanie. I must agree with you about bringing healthy food when going on a vacation. But I think you don’t have to bring all of your stocks at home. If you’re planning to go out-of-town, there should be a supermarket that you can pass by. And of course, book a place that is complete with amenities that you need.
