This trip will fortunately not cause any jet lag for me as I will remain in the Eastern Time Zone. But for those travelers who do fly cross country or internationally, here's a tip I learned to prevent the feeling of being tired at the wrong time. Eat carbohydrates. They prompt the release of insulin which helps to reset the body's Circadian cycle. Scientists suggest eating a carb heavy meal, like pasta, for dinner when flying eastbound. When flying west load up on carbs at breakfast.
