Hi there!

I just got on keto a few weeks ago(have also been doing intermittent fasting, which is a lot easier on Keto ).

I don’t travel often for work, but we just got a new contract where we might have to travel every couple of months out of state. And I was wondering what’s the best plan of attack to stay on Keto while traveling?

Since giving up sugar and carbs, it has obviously gotten a lot easier to go longer without eating. However, when traveling there is stress and fuzz of getting on a plane and so getting to a hotel, etc. and stress can make the brain go “go back to your crappy old eating habits and get crap out of the vending machine”.

I guess this is a long way of asking; does anyone have any experience traveling while on Keto? Any pro tips/advice will be greatly appreciated.

Thanks!

    I haven’t traveled extensively while on keto, but I recommend planning ahead. Scope out the restaurants and grocery options where you’re going and make a plan for where and what you’ll eat. It’s really overwhelming figuring out where to eat after traveling all day - having a plan will help prevent you from defaulting to old eating habits.

    Also, bring snacks with you - nuts, jerky, maybe cheese, etc. Stuff that will get you quick low carb fat and protein calories, but that travels well.
