Sooo I am truely honored to live in southern Louisiana, a place where we have the largest free musical festival in the world…Festival Internationale de Louisiane. Knowing I would be at the Festival for hours on end ( and knowing i am suppose to be sticking to eating better) I got to pinterest for some great ideas of diet festival food.
Let’s just say I came up short…not many festival foods are “healthy!” So i just used my already some what health knowledge I have gained and created a quick tip list.
FESTIVAL TIPS FOR EATING HEALTHIER:
- Stay away from sweets!
- They have boiled seafood right at your fingertips downtown…gravitate towards that, its healthier!
- Stay away from premade drinks- they contain tons of sugars!
- Stay away from all the hotdog and hamburger and greasy food stands…loaded in unhealthy calories!
–Added bonuses:
*you’re going to be doing a TON of walking from stage to stage- great extra exercise
*join in on the dancing! you can always use some extra cardio!
I hope this helps some! and hope everyone gets to get out there and enjoy the festival!
Here’s a pic of the festival, as well as me and my friend in VIP standing on the stage listening to a zydeco band!
