* Don’t leave hungry, or you’ll be much more likely to make poor food choices. “Start off your trip on the right foot with a healthy meal before you leave,” says Kase.
* When you reach your destination, look for healthy food options in or near your hotel. When you’re pressed for time, you’ll be less likely to run to the closest fast-food restaurant if you know there’s a cafe with healthy salads and sandwiches right around the corner.
* Don’t think of traveling as a break from your regular life and healthy eating habits. “Calories count whether they are consumed in the air, on the road, or in a hotel,” Kase says.
* Cut calories wherever you can. Avoid sauces, or at least ask for them on the side. Just ordering a sandwich without mayonnaise, for example, can save you 30 grams of fat.

Fitness expert Debbie Mandel, author of Turn on Your Inner Light:

Fitness for Body, Mind and Soul, suggests filling up on fresh fruits and vegetables at local markets when you travel. Not only may you discover foods that you can’t find at home, you’ll reap the benefits of the fiber found in fresh produce.

Drinking plenty of bottled water will also help fill you up and keep you from feeling fatigued, says Mandel.And don’t forget to exercise, she adds.
“Speed up your metabolism,” she advises. Walk, jump rope, use water bottles as weights, or do push-ups and sit-ups. … These are all exercises you can do wherever you go.”
