Do you live your life on the go? I know I do! Sometimes I
feel like all I do is drive in my car from point A to point B.
I LOVE going out to eat, because as I have said before, it
is EASY! But it can add up in calories and hurt your wallet.
Although I have been eating on the go a lot lately, and
eating out a lot, I have found a good balance in eating snacks I have packed.
Soon I will be posting about eating out!
This was after a Whole Foods run. You can see the carrots, celery, spinach, cucumbers, peppers and already cooked/cut chicken. The lettuce I did have to wash myself and it was a struggle, ha ha! |
I have learned a lot over the years of eating healthy. One,
I HATE cutting and washing produce. Two, if it is not ready to eat and in a to
go container I will not eat it. And three, if I do not log it the night before
I will just say screw it and go to Panera.
This was on my way to brunch but I was starving! I have Bolthouse ranch dressing with my veggies. |
Point is: I AM LAZY. I am a normal human who does not want
to spend hours every week cutting up vegetables.
So to solve my problems I have been buying the pre-cut
vegetables. It saves me a lot of time and I eat the vegetables before they go
bad. I also buy the already washed and cut lettuce because, um it is 1394x more
convenient. I may spend a little more money but to me it is worth it. I have
also been putting it in my food log the night before AND into containers so I
am prepared for the day ahead.
Yummy salad under all those veggies. |
Some of my favorites snacks:
Apples - having a side of almonds is ideal for some healthy fats and proteins
Greek yogurt + berries - make sure to bring some organic stevia to make your yogurt sweet
Quest bars - great snack or quick breakfast
Turkey roll ups - I eat these as a snack or lunch
Core Power Protein Shakes - great morning meal OR post workout
For the best deals on already cut up veggies I love Costco,
Whole Foods or Aldi.
If worse comes to worst eat the fricken donut!
