Couple that w being tired cause you re on leg 4 of 5 wont help you either, you need to A workout, or B eat healthy or C BOTH! do yourself a favor and do both....like i always say its 20% in the gym and 80% what you eat and you will see results....there are long overnights to workout (if the hotel gym sucks) then go for a run but lets be serious sometimes we cant alwyas workout every overnight cause they are too short, but at least get a good meal in ya......at my airline according to a flight attendant friend of mine in her reccurent they had a powerpoint of the last 3 fatal accidents and what the crew had to eat that day and it was mindblowing, ............cookkies, peanuts....nothing according to her....so do urself a favor and make the extra effort to bring at least some healthy food or try to get a workout in because it does helkp let me tell ya...anyways take it for what its worth
