Hope you are having a wonderful day with family, regardless if you celebrate this holiday or not. if this is your holiday. We are leaving today for Florida. We are going to spend the rest of today different airport today and inactivity mixed with horribly prepared foods can mean a bad day for most people. My sure fire ways to combat this scenario:
1. Bring your own food.
2. Buy 2 bottles of water when you get through security.
3. Don't sit down during lay overs.
I just have to make it until dinner time. So, I am packing 2 snacks and lunch, for each person in our family. The water is essential each person gets 2 bottles, in addition to the beverages on the plane. This assures that you never mistake dehydration for hunger and it does force your to get out of your seat on the plane and move around, great for your circulation.
Daily intake for the past 2 days:
Day 23
B: greek yogurt and blueberries
S: cashews, apple
S: cashews, carrot, hummus
D: Lentil soup, carrots, cashews, dried fruit
Didn't plan my lunch or snack, so I didn't do that well. I actually ended up eating too much. But I didn't' eat any of the cookies or treats, which I feel good about.
Day 24
B: dried fruit, greek yogurt
S: carrot, hummus, kids leftover bacon, cashews
L: broccoli slaw, chicken, salsa, apple
S: cashews, dried fruit, pistachios
D: Chicken, cauliflower, carrot, hummus, cashews
I am easily over by 1000 calories in nuts alone. I will eliminate those today.
I will try to keep posting on my trip, though it probably won't be daily, but I will try.
Eat Wisely and Be Well,
Alyson
