Well this years plans are not quite working out as planned. Work has completely taken over. I have been on the road almost every day in the past 3 weeks. Leaving again next week for 2 full weeks, including the weekend. I almost never stay away over the weekend.

The weight is slowly dropping but with the extremely limited time I have for exercising I am pleased it is still dropping. After this trip I should have some time to breathe until July. Then all bets are off. I might not be home at all for a few months. When I started this I was able to lose weight while traveling. I would still walk 5miles a day. Even when home I haven't been able to walk.

I train people all day. Then hit the hotel room and have 8 or 9 hours of computer work just to keep up. Sounds like I am complaining but not really. The other side of this is the economy crashes, sales slow, then there are a LOT of other more painful issues to deal with. Its feast or famine and I don't control either.

I am about 2 months away from my 1year mark. I should hit my goal of losing 117lbs
with my WOE, if I can find some time for some movement I will crush it.
I do come out here and read from time to time but rarely do I have time to write.

Okay, life is crowded now, but you've obviously been watching the quantity of food that hits your mouth. I used to travel constantly for work but maintained around 120 lbs., so it is doable. Are you driving or flying?

A bit of both. Last week was unplanned was supposed to be a week at home but had to go to Boston, 2 hours from me. Next week fly to Columbus then drive to Richmond then drive home. The food has become pretty easy even with travel. The good thing I know I can maintain this regardless of what happens in life. This is the first time I have eaten my way to health. How are things on your end? Think you will hit your goal weight this summer ?

You have done incredibly well, especially if you are traveling that much. Eat as healthy as you can and at least try to get walks in as much as you can.💜

I have an extremely similar situation so I’d like to follow this thread. I’m going to be using my Pilates core reformer and YouTube videos this next week while out of town for work. Is this something you could do? You only need a little more space than a yoga mat and 15-20 minutes.

@diana thank you. How are you feeling? Sorry to read about you being sick. I have been lucky in that regard so far.

@Lola: You're traveling with a reformer?!? @Russell: Try to take advantage of the long stretches in the airport by walking constantly. You can easily cover 3 miles in an hour before boarding. Also, if your hotel room has a mini fridge, find a nearby grocery store and stock up on nuts and fruit for snacks (no room service). Most continental breakfasts have bananas & apples and yogurt. I cannot stress enough that you are not on vacation: Salads for Lunch Salads for Lunch Salads for Lunch.😁

@lola thank you for the support. I did a lot of exercising last year while traveling. Things have changed though. Work is in hyper speed. Most days in bed at 2 and up at 6. I’m really lucky I lost the weight before this period hit. Being healthy gives me a shot and getting through this. You travel for work a lot too ?

JB I actually have been getting my movement in the warehouses while training. Been getting 10-15k steps without “exercising”. I haven’t changed my eating habits on the road. I grocery shop day one. I make sure I have apples, bananas, carrots, salads, water in the fridge and usually a few bags of frozen veggies. I don’t eat in the airports, on the plane, or the hotel breakfast.

🤣You eat better while traveling than most do when at home. ((Relief))

How about a treadmill desk???

At least when you are able to be home and use it? I don’t know how portable they are.

calisthenics light and heavy work pretty good for me. So many quick workout you tube videos that are pretty easy at ten to twenty minutes. A few ten minute sessions a day really add up. I try to get my heart pumping and pushing it into a cardio workout.
