Default Please pass on recipes and meal plans

Trying very hard to do the right thing, please pass on any recipes and meal plans, including fast food ideals. I'm a sales rep and I spend 50% of my day in my car. I'm a poor pre-planer food wise, always eating on the go. I just got to track L.C. wise and know this will be a WOL, so please pass on drive thur suggestions along with homecooked recipes.

Recipes can be found on the red/orange bar above this thread

I too am in Sales and travel a lot.

Best thing: Fix breakfast or stop at a restaurant. Doing this will help you out the rest of the day...but fuel that body before starting out!

Breakfast for me consists of but not all at once: Eggs, mushrooms, cheese, sausage, bacon, ham, steak. Some days I just do sausage and cheese slices, other days I make an omelette or scramble. Depending on how strong your resolve is, you can order the big breakfast at Mcdonalds and ditch the biscuit and hashbrown. But that is pricey for scrambled eggs and a sausage patty.

Lunch is pretty easy, as most fast food places have salads now with chicken or ham or such. Or you can pack a cooler of your own menu. (Wendy's has salads and other places do as well, just watch the salad dressings) If you take clients out like I do, and the clients pick, normally there is something you can have. Even at mexican food places, order the taco salad and just eat around the shell. Like I said, it depends on how strong your resolve is to lose the weight.

Good luck and take care!

Hi!

For breakfast, you can carry Delived eggs in a tupperware or plastic thing. You can make these the night before, too as well as hard boiled eggs.

You can poach eggs in the microwave and that is super fast, too.
Leftover chicken eaten cold - okay, too.

McD's: Order a McMuffin, feed the birds the bread. This can not be eaten while driving!!! I tried and it is messy - just make sure you have a fork and paper plate in the car.

There is the Mock Danish on the site that can be for breakfast and only takes a minute or two. Check it out.

Lunch: Cheese cubes, salads, little cans of tuna or sardines - again messy - but quick. Lunch meats can be taken and eaten on the road - just watch what you are buying.

I am not strong enough to handle restaurants yet - so others will have to advise you.

If you go to McD's website they can tell you carb counts.

Hope this helps.
