A Day of Diet-Friendly Meals for Travelers

Planning a relaxing spring break trip? Unfortunately, the process of getting to your destination can be anything but relaxing, thanks to
long lines, security checks, airport delays and lost luggage. One way to reduce the stress is to make sure you eat regular, healthful meals. Noshing regularly can keep you energized and ward off hunger-related irritability. So what should you eat? Check out this day of diet-friendly eating from Stephanie Clarke, M.S., R.D., which starts even before you grab your bags and head out the door.

Leave on a Full Tank
Don't leave the house hungry! Eat a balanced meal as close to your departure time as possible so that you don't get stuck in a hunger crunch later on.
