Guest guest Posted January 30, 2008 Report Share Posted January 30, 2008 I'm home from a conference tonight. Travel is always a challenge (they sure don't make it easy to eat right). I did manage to find a gym near enough to the conference hotel to get my workouts in, though it cost an extra $5 a day. Doesn't sound like much, but when I'm already paying a gym membership at home and I'm dealing with a firefighters salary... it adds up quickly. Food was the challenge. I had enough Myoplex and AdvantEDGE bars to get me through the travel, but it just isn't possible to pack all of the meals for the trip. I did my best, and did fairly well, but I still feel like I should have done better. Progress, not perfection. Right? I have a week-long trip to New Mexico next month, and then 3 days at a conference in Augusta, Georgia in March. I need to get this travel thing figured out. Thanks for letting me vent.

Guest guest Posted January 30, 2008 Report Share Posted January 30, 2008 Hi Tristen, I am 100% travel for my work and managed to lose 85lbs now. I travel not just in the USA but all over the world. It was very easy to plan things. I always go to hotels with a gym. It's also very easy to find healthy restaurants. I use subway a lot when I travel around the USA ... Boston Market ..., they have healthy salads and low fat meals..... I also screen the internet to see what kind of restaurants are around the hotel or grocery store. If I can't find a decent hotel I try a motel that has a fridge and a microwave. It's not as hard as people would think. Good luck!!!
