Healthy Eating on the Road - Gas Station Survival Guide

A client of mine inspired me to post about snacking on the road. She is moving her kids back to college and has to drive about 1,000 miles to get there. Being on the road is tough, and gas station food can be overwhelming with limited healthy options. We have all been there and when you’re trying to reach a goal that is important to you, ignore what people around you are doing and be disciplined.

When you’re stuck on what to buy or pack for the road, you can refer to this list:

*Hummus/peppers/carrots
*Greek yogurt
*Vegetable juice
*Banana/other mess-free fruit
*String Cheese
*Homemade trail mix (leave out the chocolate!)
*Dried Fruit
*Walnuts and Almond mix
*Popcorn

Don’t forget the water. Remember that those “healthy” juices are full of sugar and synthetic additives that can delay progress toward your goal. Be strong!
