I help pilots and cabin crew escape the quick fix weight loss solutions to create unshakeable levels of body confidence the sustainable way.
As flying crew we often have to grab food on the run. Commuting and travelling from A to B is pretty much at the core of what we do. But let's face it, we don't always have time to prepare our food before we go. So what sort of things should you be aiming for, to not just stay on track with your fitness goal.... …..but to avoid arriving at your destination feeling bloated and sluggish? (On my recent commute I grabbed my food from M&S at Manchester airoirt before the journey to fly out of Edinburgh). ✅ Get your protein in first. From M&S, loads of tasty salad options here with chicken, fish and eggs etc.. I went for the Chicken Katsu Salad with a side portion of flaked salmon. (Odd combination I know! But I loved it AND I hit over 50g of protein in the process). ✅ I would always aim to avoid pre packaged sandwiches. A BLT sandwich for example would typically have around 450 calories. They can also be high in fat and salt and it probably won't be long until you're feeling peckish again soon after. ✅ If you've got a sweet tooth (like me!) don't deny yourself...just make better choices. High protein yogurts with fruit or perhaps some small pieces of dark chocolate. Chose something you love but control the portion and track your food. ✅ Finally, Hydrate. For me, sparkling water is way more interesting than flat. Ultimately opt for something that means you avoid all the high sugar sodas out there. Whether it's the motorway or the airport itself, i hope this inspires you the next time you're on your journey 🚗 ✈ https://lnkd.in/e_CnnCTn #flyingfit #pilotfitness #pilotwellbeing #cabincrewfitness
