3 ways to eat healthier on spring break


 

Check these out, too...

  • 5 signs McDonald's isn't as healthy as they say
  • 10 cinchy ways to burn 100 calories
  • In the News: Exercise really does calm you down
  • Green meanies: How to make veggies taste good
  • Check this out: 30 seconds to fruitful eating
It happens to lotsa girls: The bell rings for vacay and your healthy habits go right out the window. Not anymore. We’ve got tricks to keep you on track, no matter how far you’re wandering this vacay.

1.   Exercise portion control
This one is huge. There’s nothing harder to resist when on vacation then indulging in huuuge meals, especially since you’re going out to eat more often and restaurants usually give you way more food then necessary. Ask your waiter how big that bowl of pasta is before you order. If it’s mammoth, offer to split it with your sis or see if you can get a smaller portion.

2. Avoid snacking all day 
When you’re in school, it’s easy to sit around and munch on chips, cookies or leftovers all day. Instead, try to stay busy to keep outta the fridge. And if you’re going on a day trip, pack a cooler for the fam that’s filled with fruits, nuts and turkey on whole wheat sandwiches. It’ll fill you up better and won’t load you up with sugar.

3.    Stay hydrated…with water 
Make it your goal this break to down a ton of water. Buy a new bottle if you have to and keep it loaded with H20. It’ll keep you feeling full (less snacking!) and will keep your body running in top shape.

Mod mod mod !! i've always been really short and skinny, but now its starting to get to me cuz i hear kids at my school saying "oh gosh look at her, she's totally anorexic" and that really hurts me!! i do not starve myself! i actually am underweight (but not dangerously) and would like to gain a bit of weight. help? thanks.

 

Hey chica!  I'm so sorry to hear those kids are making comments, but I'm glad to know that you aren't harming your body.  You can tell them it's offensive (don't get super-angry when you do it - try to stay calm).  Then just ignore them, and know that you are doing the best you can to be healthy.  As for gaining weight, if that's your goal, it's important to do it in a healthy way.  You need to check in with your doctor, who can give you personalized tips for how to do it the right way.  xoxo

Mod mod mod mod mod!!!
One of my major fears is stupid I know but I am afraid of throwing up. I ate ice cream (resees peanut butter cup) for desert and I found out it was expired after I had almost ate the whole thing!! It expired on 1-31-11. It was really old and we just bought it yesterday! My parents say I'll be fine but I am afraid of puking b/c of it. Will I?????
Please reply soon!!!!! Thanx!

 

 

Hey girly girl! While it's not a good idea to eat expired foods, I think you'll be ok! Just don't make a habit out of it Smile

MOD!!!! Spring break i'm going to Mexico and I want to do some cute, QUICK hair in the mornings just so it looks cute before I jump into the ocean!!! Thanks for all your help previously!! Have an awesome spring break!! Smile

 

 

Hey girly girl! Braids are always adorable for the beach! Braid your wet hair back into one big braid, and then once it dries, you'll have nice beachy waves. Or, braid back your bangs for an equally cute look Smile
