Tips for eating low-carb on the road

Road trips are next to impossible if you're trying to follow a low-carb plan. Gas stations and roadside stops are heaving on the white bread, fries, potato chips and sugary goods, and light on healthy things like salads.
So how can you stay on track on the road? Planning is key. Don't rely on finding something healthy on the side of the highway -- bring your own snacks. Pack a cooler full of healthy snacks like cheese, veggies and nuts. Bring lots of water, even if it means you'll need a few extra bathroom breaks -- keeping hydrated will help keep cravings at bay. And if you have to stop for something to eat, plan ahead and make an educated choice -- burgers without the bun and salads are good choices. If you find yourself at a sub shop, order yours on a small dinner roll instead of the huge sub bun.
