Day 5 - Work Plus Weight Loss Equal Winning


Hi Guys,

I am heading back to work tomorrow and I am excited. However, eating healthy at the work place can be a challenge, but there is a way to keep it easy and simple. PREPARE AHEAD.. yes prepare ahead of time lunches and snacks for your work week. My family hates left overs and that's a plus for me, because instead of storing my left overs in a huge container that no one will ever touch I break them down into my lunch portions and snacks.

Example:
I cooked stuff peppers 2 days ago and stored them in individual  containers. So today selecting my lunch was simple. I just went in and grabbed what I saw available. Also, when I see my fruit going bad, as in my grapes, I freeze them in snack size portions and grab them when I need a snack. Frozen grapes are delicious by the way (its my diet candy).

So tomorrow I have a 12 hour shift and here is what I am taking:


2 Tubs of Frozen Grapes (snacks)
1 Veggie Wrap with 1 Apple (1st break)
1 Tuna Salad (2nd break)
1 Stuffed Bell Pepper with 2 Cuties (Lunch)
1 Liter of Water (I will refill it as needed)

I will also be making an egg white omelet for breakfast and when I get off work following my workout I will have a protein shake or bar.

So, that's how I do it - I hope that I helped someone out or if you have tips for me please post a comment.
Bye Bye for now.
