Olympic athletes say their biggest challenge besidescompeting is sticking to diets while globe-trotting! Exercise physiologist Vincent Onywera coaches:
  • Research local fare. Many restaurant menus are online.
  • Pack snacks that travel well, like 100-calorie packs.
  • When crossing time zones, reset your watch asap, and eat meals accordingly.
  • Don't feel obliged to try everything—you wouldn't drag a tourist into KFC, would you?

How do you stick to your diet when traveling?

  • I ask the locals to recommend health-conscious cafes.
  • I stock up on snacks at the corner market.
  • I play it safe and stick with the restaurant chains, where I know what to order.
  • I leave my diet at home!
