Hitting the road this holiday? Don’t let travel take a toll on your waistline. While this time of feasting, excessive sitting and under-exercising could be a recipe for serious weight gain, it doesn’t have to be! Follow me as I show you how to get there and back feeling healthier than ever.

4 Essentials for Staying Healthy, Energized and Stress-free!

  1. Carry on Kirsch (and TSA!)-- approved snacks. You’ve got to make sure food is not your go-to remedy whenever you feel stressed or bored. Have these snacks in your arsenal and refuel every 3 to 4 hours.

  1. Skip the beverage cart – Unless it’s to fill up on H2O. I tell my clients to steer clear of soda, alcohol and sugary drinks. Airline travel is dehydrating. Make it a plan to rehydrate with one glass of water for every hour up in the air. Add those favorite water boosters you brought along too.

  1. Get off your butt – Sitting for long periods decreases our metabolism and shuts off our fat burning enzymes. Both drinking and walking can help prevent blood clots that can also occur after hours of sitting. The plan: Get up and move every 1-2 hours. You can go wild and lunge down the aisle or simply stand up and walk.

  1. To ward off the bug … I like to drink my vitamins – that is – water spiked with my Vitamin Mineral Super Juice and Super Charged Greens Blend to combat the lack of sleep or nutrient deficiencies that can weaken my immune system. Researchers at Tuft University found that taking 200 IU of vitamin E per day cut the risk of catching a cold by 20%.You don't want to ruin your holiday by coming down with a cold.
