It is important not to overeat when you are vacation.

Health experts suggest that when dining out, eat the things that fill us up first like fiber and vegetables.

You can also cut down on large portion sizes by eating half of the meal at the restaurant and take the leftovers back to your hotel for the next day.

“When we eat outside of our home, most studies show we will eat between 35% to 45% more in terms of our portions,” explained Kristin Kirkpatrick, a registered dietitian with Cleveland Clinic. “On top of that, plates at restaurants are usually much larger. They could be two to three times larger than the plate size you’re used to in your kitchen. So it’s easy to overeat because sometimes you can’t accurately assess how much food is actually in front of you. “

Aside from what you eat, try sticking to a regular sleep schedule. Getting too much or not enough sleep can sway our assessment of hunger and fullness.
