How To Eat Healthy at an All Inclusive Resort


Visit the salad bar in the resort restaurant's buffet line before going to the other buffet areas. Use a vinaigrette dressing instead of a cream-based dressing and get it on the side.

Go for fresh fruit as your dessert.

Choose a traditionally lean meat like fish or poultry instead of fattier meats like pork and beef. Pay attention to how the dish is prepared, avoiding dishes that are smothered in creams or gravies.

Drink water instead of soda or juice.

Choose your alcoholic beverages carefully. Avoid drinks that have alot of sugar like pina coladas.

Opt for a plated dining option instead of the buffet line. Many resorts have standard restaurants where you order a single entree instead of being tempted with the buffet's seemingly unlimited choices.

Why do we sweat?

  •  We sweat   because  humidity gets to us and we get hot. What happens when we get hot? We sweat. The reason why is because it cools us off.
  • Sweat evapoarates in the air. This requires energy input, which it receives from your body. It helps your body cool down.
  • Everybody sweats. If we didn't sweat we would suffer from sun stroke or heat exhaustion. We sweat through glands that are located under our armpits, on our head, between our legs and on our feet.
  • FACTS:
    Did you know that we sweat all the time even on cold days!
    Did you know that there are about 2 million sweat pores on our body!
    Did you know that sweat is odourless. The smell is the sweat decomposing.

Nutrition at Restaurants

Before you go to a restaurant you can look up the calories, fat, protein and carbohydrates. Some restaurants do not have the nutrition online, but most of the chain restaurants do. You will be surprised that alot of the food you eat at a restaurant is not as healthy as you think.

8 Glasses of Water a Day

There has been new studies about the wise old age of drinking 8 glasses of water a day. They now believe you can consume some of those 8 glasses of water a day by eating foods that contain water. Examples are watermelon, cucumbers, lettuce, broccoli, cantaloupe and other fruits and vegetables.

Time to Exercise

Don't just think about exercise and say to yourself I will start tomorrow. Start today and make sure you pick a time that works for you. Some people prefer mornings, some prefer evenings. I like to do it in the morning between clients or early afternoon. I feel awful if I miss a day, so unless I am sick I never miss a day of exercise. Eventually it will become apart of your life.
