Environment: Eating Well Away From Home

Eating well away from home mostly comes down to being aware of the food you're eating. You can still have a tasty meal that's nutritious, instead of something heavily processed that leaves you feeling flat.

Bringing lunch from home makes it easy. If you're buying, pick something genuinely nutritious. The more you know about what's in your food, the easier that gets. Even bacon and eggs can be a good choice, with natural sources of protein and fat.

Look at the menu before you go, so you can pick something nutritious you'll enjoy. But don't be afraid to treat yourself. Meals out with friends are part of the 20% in the 80/20 rule, so enjoy them.

Enjoy the trip and try the local food. Stay aware of what you're eating without letting it take over your holiday. A few balanced meals between the treats will keep you feeling good.
