PUZZLING what to eat when on the go or eating out?



I just have to say I'm down another 200g!!!!!!!! Ok I have to admit my inlaws are coming to visit us and my goal is to weigh 75kg when they arrive! I have another 4 weeks before they arrive! Maybe it is a goal a bit out of reach but I'm going to give it all.

Yesterday was a bit challenging food wise. I knew we were going on a trip with friends to the beach. What works for me is planning ahead and keeping it very simple. I packed frozen bottles of water, often when lead into temptation drinking a nice glass of cold water gets me over the edge.

Before we left I had breakfast which was two eggs and left over salad from the night before. I knew that my breakfast would pull me over to lunch. I dragged along a bag with almonds and macadamia nuts. I knew I could only eat a few but it could count as a snack when all around me were gobbling down the chocolate brownies I was asked to bring along :D

Lunch happened to be out and it is hard to eat out without carbs. Especially at local restaurants at the sea. I had a chicken burger without the chips and bun with extra salad and they were willing to put it on  a plate for me. How nice.

I had a few lettuce wraps. Let me explain. I normally buy big leave lettuce. I use the leaves as my wraps with a piece of turkey ham, Greek salad with feta cheese and olives and a dollop of mayonnaise.
I was definitely not drooling over my family's toasted ham and cheese sandwiches :)

I was hoping to loose more today but I think I got carried away with the nuts. A snack to many!

Here is a great FREE e book on one amazing website on eating on the go and planning ahead for those trips:
