I might be onto something

I feel much better about this past week of travel.  I think planning ahead for the day is necessary for me to be successful. 

I stopped at Whole Foods everyday (Tue - Thurs) on my way from the hotel to the office this week.  I had juice (fresh pressed veggie/juice fruit) and chobani with granola everyday for breakfast.  I bought super tasty (and pricey) berries for snacks.  I also bought lunch (salad, or prepared food bar) to bring into work - this is key because if I eat at the cafeteria, I generally probably hit 700+ calorie with minimal nutrition/staying power. 

One of my co-workers snagged some of my extra fruit last night, and I mentioned how convienent it was to stop on the way to work.  He said that was a great idea.  I ran into the same co-worker today, and he said he didn't stop at whole food because it just takes too much time!?!?!  It is on the way to work. 

I definately need to keep this up.

Good Day I Guess

Today was a tough work day, but food wise I managed to do pretty good.  I ate 100% from whole foods today.

Breakfast:

The yogini juice - this was celery, kale, chard and spinach I believe.  It was terrible.  I think whoever made it made a mistake. I'm definately going to try something different tomorrow
Vanilla chobani w/ flax granol
1 cup of mixed berries

Lunch:

Spicy terriyaki salmon
Roasted butternut squash

Snack:
Apple
2 cups mixed berries
1 cup of organic popcorn that a coworker started snacking on them then left by my computer.  I think I ate that cup before I knew it was there.  Once I realized, I removed the bag from my work area.

Dinner:

Mix of hot and cold salad bar items (the roasted garlic is the best!) 
Chocalate chip cookie - past its prime

Maybe tomorrow I can fit in some exercise?
