Vacations are meant for relaxing, exploring, and enjoying life—but that doesn’t mean I toss my lifestyle out the window. Intermittent fasting is part of my lifestyle, and yes, it can travel with me. Here’s how I keep it flexible and enjoyable even when I’m on vacation. 

1. I Stay Flexible With My Fasting Window

Instead of sticking rigidly to my normal window (e.g., 16:8), I allow myself some room to shift. If there’s a local breakfast I want to try or a late dinner with friends, I adjust accordingly—maybe it’s a 14:10 day or even a 12:12. The key is being intentional, not perfect.

2. I Prioritize Quality Over Timing

When I’m traveling, I focus more on what I eat rather than obsessing over the clock. Whole foods, local ingredients, and listening to my body matter more than strict hours. If I’m eating amazing Mediterranean food or fresh island fruits, I’m enjoying every bite—mindfully.

3. I Stay Hydrated and Keep Moving

Vacations sometimes throw off routines, so I make sure to hydrate consistently, and I stay active by walking…Fasting always feels easier when I’m moving and staying busy.

4. I Don’t Fast Out of Guilt

If I have a later than usual dinner or an unexpected lunch, I don’t “punish” myself with a longer fast. Intermittent fasting isn’t about restriction for me—it’s about rhythm. One indulgent doesn’t undo my lifestyle.

5. I Use Travel as a Mindful Reset

Vacations give me space to re-evaluate why I fast in the first place. It’s not about rules—it’s about energy, clarity, and feeling aligned with myself. If anything, time away reinforces how much I love how fasting makes me feel, strong, healthy & empowered!

I hope the information that I have provided helps you with your health and weight loss journey. I’m not a doctor so please don’t use anything that I say as a substitute for medical advice.  If you would like to share your Intermittent Fasting story, please email me at [email protected].         Life is what you make it! Have a great day everyone!                                                          Intro/outro music: I Feel You by Keven MacLeod
