1. TO EAT
HEALTHY
10 Ways
WHILE ON VACATION IN CABO SAN LUCAS

2. Resist the Urge to
Splurge
01
At least 70% of American
vacationers eat all their food
while eating out, regardless of
portion size. And because they
are on vacation, they don't pay
attention to what is on the
menu, choosing higher-fat and
higher-calorie selections.

3. Have it Your Way
Customized menu options are
now more popular then ever in
table-service restaurants. And if
something is not on the menu,
don't be afraid to ask for it.

4. Enjoy the Scenery &
the Food
03
Otherwise, what's the point of
going on vacation? This is
your time to treat your self and
sample the cuisine. But don't
forget the key word,
"moderation."

5. Walking is Your
Best Friend
Of course, who wants to leave
that fantastic meal unfinished,
added with a chocolate desert
and a nice glass of
Chardonnay? But walking
before you dine out boosts your
digestive metabolism, as well as
taking a brisk walk right before
breakfast.

6. Have One Treat
Every Day
05
It's all about moderation. If
you know you can have a treat
everyday on vacation, you
won't splurge all at one-time,
then turn that into an excuse of
why you can't have a treat the
next day.

7. Make Healthier
Menu Choices
Especially at fast-food places...
Instead of french fries why not a
side salad to go with that
cheeseburger? Then pick a
dressing you like most. And
when it comes to vegetables,
choose what you want.

8. Hide the Mini-Bar
Key
07
If you know what's in it, then
you will be craving it
regardless of sugar, salt, or
alcohol content. Sometimes
the best thing to do is give
someone else the key before
you look inside the bar or
fridge.

9. Water is Your
Friend
Not only does water keep you
hydrated while on that awesome
adventure, drinking a glass of
water right before a meal will
help you eat not as much. So
take a bottle of water with you
everywhere you go.

10. Five Veggies a Day
09
Eating fresh fruits and
vegetables increases your
vitality and energy. And eating
an apple gives you more
energy then eating a cup of
coffee. Of course, having a
fresh cup of coffee in the
morning is not all that bad. But
beware of hard caffeine
crashes and supplement your
energy with fresh food.

11. Eat When You're
Hungry
Your body is sending you a
signal that if it doesn't get
something to eat, then your
mood will change from positive
to negative. And nobody likes to
be around a grouchy vacationer.
So don't ignore the most
important reason why you are on
vacation, that's YOU.
