In this episode of my Hungry for More series, I talk about “falling off the wagon” during holidays and vacations and the mindsets that lead to and result from that. I discuss how our perceptions of vacation and perceptions of our actions affect our ability to stay on, fall off, or get back on the wagon and see success in the long run.

Highlights:

• Vacation doesn’t have to be synonymous with indulgence.
• Why being mindful about food choices on vacation can actually increase your enjoyment.
• Exercise on vacation: punishment or leisure?
• What it really means to be “off the wagon.”
• How to approach your dietary setbacks now that you’re home.
