How to Do Intermittent Fasting While Traveling

How can you stick with your intermittent fasting plan while traveling? It can sometimes be a challenge — but anything is possible! Here are some tips:

  • Start by setting a flexible fasting window to accommodate different time zones or schedules. Shorten or shift your fast as needed.
  • Bring along fasting-friendly snacks, as well as essentials like Fasting Today drink mix, to stay nourished on the go.
  • Hydrate consistently, as dehydration can be mistaken for hunger.
  • Plan meals around local healthy options that align with your eating window and avoid snacking outside of it.
  • Talk to your hosts/family about your eating schedule and any dietary restrictions, and bring or shop for your own food if possible.
  • Finally, stay mindful of your fasting goals, but don’t stress over small deviations—staying flexible can make fasting sustainable while still enjoying the travel experience.
