It may be harder to eat clean while traveling but it isn't impossible. You can bring your own food with you on the plane (just not liquids!). Even if you forget your food or you can't bring it with you for some reason, there actually are healthy choices at the airport, you just might have to look a little harder for them. If you do not have your own food with you, skip the bags of candy and stock up on fruit and nuts to snack on during the flight. Grab a bottle of water instead of the soda and if you have time to actually grab a bite to eat look for a restaurant where you can "build your own meal" (usually something similar to Chipotle). Start your vacation or business trip off right by making healthy choices at the beginning of your trip!
