IIFYM | Eating Healthy While at Disneyland

If It Fits Your Macros... while at Disneyland?

I'm on a fitness journey to a healthier weight but I still want to try and eat healthy while away on vacation. So here is a list of healthy foods by Disneyland location and in my opinion lower-calorie meals. The only place I could find some nutrition facts was on Myfitnesspal so be sure to download the app if you are tracking your foods while in the park.

Kids Mickey Check meals

These are nutritious meals that meet Disney's Nutrition Guidelines for Complete Meals. The pack comes with items such as a mini yogurt drink, carrots, apples, and goldfish crackers. Its perfect for snacking on the go or to offer your child something healthier with their chicken nuggets instead of greasy fries.


Take your own snacks too. 




Pack some fresh fruit, protein bars, crackers, etc. My favorite protein bar is by RXBar. Its not filled with sugar and comes in a variety of flavors but my favorite flavor is hands down Blueberry. There is no chocolate in it so the bar won't melt in the SoCal heat. RXBars are also made with real ingredients that will keep your belly happy plus it has 4 grams of fiber. I noticed some of the other brands don't add fiber to their bars. Fiber will help keep you full longer and has the added benefit of keeping your bowel movements regular. Many people get constipated while on vacation and its usually because they aren't drinking enough water or eating sufficient amounts of fiber.

The character meals (sit down restaurants) are also fantastic because they offer a buffet. You can choose from a variety of foods and put on your plate as much or as little as you want to eat. They can be expensive but my family's favorite is at Plaza Inn with Minnie and the gang!

Don't consume your entire day worrying about macros while on vacation. Its easy to walk around eight miles while at the park. Between walking to and from your hotel room if staying on property or at a Good Neighbor hotel, you will easily walk around 20,000 steps. Take your activity tracker and see how quickly your steps increase while having fun! Have some dessert and enjoy yourself as well.
