3 Tips To Keep From Overindulging When On Vacation

  • July 26, 2023
  • Jules

If you have a vacation planned, you might be really looking forward to the foods and drinks that you’ll be able to experience while on your trip. However, if you want to look and feel your best during your travels, you’ll want to do your best to help ensure that you don’t over-indulge on these delicacies. Otherwise, you could wind up feeling sick or getting yourself into some trouble along the way.

To help ensure that these things don’t happen to you, here are three tips to keep you from overindulging when you’re on vacation. 

Stay In Touch With Your Body

One of the best things that you can do to help ensure that you almost never overindulge on food or drink, whether you’re on vacation or not, is to be in touch with your body and how you feel as you’re eating and drinking something. 

Food and drinks, especially those had on vacation, are meant to be enjoyed. So if you ever come to a point where you’re starting to not enjoy what you’re eating or drinking anymore, then it’s best to just stop. The best way to recognize these feelings is to go slow when you’re eating or drinking something, especially things that might not be good for you. This way, you can give your body and your mind a chance to recognize when you’ve had your fill and stop before you go too far. 

Switch Things Up

If you’re someone who has a hard time knowing when to say “when”, then something else that you can try to give yourself a better chance of not overindulging is to switch up what you’re eating and drinking. 

If you’re going to be going out at night, commit to drinking a glass of water between each time you grab a new martini glass. This way, you’ll still get to indulge while giving your body a chance to not overindulge. 

Partake In The Healthy Things First

Along with the idea of switching up what you’re eating and drinking to keep from overindulging, another thing that you can try while on vacation is to partake in the healthy items first before you start to partake in the items that you know you could overindulge in. 

For example, if you’re out to eat, make sure you eat your vegetables first rather than filling up entirely on bread or pasta. This way, you’ll have less room to fill up on the items that you run the risk of overindulging on. And even if you do overindulge occasionally, you can rest easier knowing that you’ve at least had the items that are going to be healthier for you. 

If you want to give yourself the best chance of not overindulging on your upcoming vacation, consider using the tips mentioned above to help you maintain some balance in what you’re eating and drinking.
