One of the hardest things to do when going on vacations is trying to eat healthy as best as possible. I still tried to eat good throughout the week on vacation as best as I can, but you’re going to get forced to eat junk food a lot. Why? Because junk food is everywhere in big cities. Junk food makes a lot of money, that’s why it’s a hit out West. Yes, there are healthy restaurants that serve real healthy food, but there isn’t many out in the California area.

That’s why I said the hell with it, if I am going to take off a week off fitness and exercise, I’d take a week off of the healthy nutrition too. I was out there to have fun and enjoy myself. You can only live once, right? Life is too short. Even if I did lose a little muscle or gotten a little fat while doing that, that’s okay. No big deal on that either, ’cause when you go back home, you can get it all back quickly. Just by burning off all the junk food and getting your muscle back is real easy in a very quick time.

I did try the “In and Out Burger” which is a popular fast food restaurant chain which is available out West only. I actually loved the, “In and Out Burger”, they make great fast food there. Better than McDonald’s/Burger King, in my opinion.

Another great restaurant is a place called, “The Pearl” which is a healthy restaurant. I ordered scallops and rice there ’cause I was in the mood for sea food. When you go on an ocean vacation, you got to eat sea food somewhere, ’cause I love sea food. Especially lobster, crab legs, shrimp, clams, various fish, etc. I love all that stuff.

Eating right is hard to do on vacations. I’m sure there are better ways to eat healthy on vacations, but healthy food is expensive out there. Now that I’m back home, I’ve returned to my strict nutrition. It’s okay to take a week off of both fitness &  healthy nutrition at least once a year, it won’t kill you. As long as you know what you’re doing and you’re careful. Eat all the junk food you want, but don’t over do it. It actually helps adds the extra pounds and helps you get bigger with calories. Then you can take it off after, then you get better results that way. That’s the trick.

It’s okay to eat junk food once in a while. You can’t ignore junk food completely anyway.
