Your Honeymoon Nutrition Plan
You were determined to look your best for wedding day, so you’ve been focused on eating right for months. Now that you’re headed for some much needed R&R, do you let all of those good habits fall by the wayside, or more appropriately, by the poolside? Hopefully not! As tempting as it may be to indulge with all of those delicious meals and cocktails on your honeymoon, proceed with caution!
The great news is with some planning and moderation, you can still enjoy your time away, and avoid those unwanted pounds. In our new summer issue, our nutrition expert Kristen Best has tips for you and your hubby that will help to ensure your honeymoon is full of fun and great food. She will help you plan your daily meals, and assist you with making conscious food choices so you can get a taste of all the yumminess your honeymoon destination has to offer.

Dreaming of an eco-adventure for your honeymoon? An exciting getaway can be found anywhere on the globe.
How about a safari in the wilderness of Kenya?
The incredible Campi Ya Kanzi will also provide a green experience complete with freshly-prepared cuisine made with local ingredients and solar-powered accommodations.
Or maybe you have a vision of dolphin watching and dinner at sunset in Costa Rica?
The Gaia Hotel and Reserve has conservation programs for local orchids and endangered wildlife on a private nature reserve.
Have you been practicing your French lately?
The Westin Paris can provide an unforgettable view of the Eiffel Tower and honey that is harvested right on the roof of the hotel and featured in many dishes served in the restaurant as well as spa treatments!
With all of these options, how will you choose just one? Our suggestion is…you don’t! There’s always the first, second, and third anniversaries…
