Eating healthy on the road!

I am getting pretty good at my healthy eating plan whilst at home. Before long it becomes habit, and 4 weeks in I feel I've done pretty well

Being on the road however is a different story!

Whilst at home my breakfast is always porridge, without even thinking about it! On the road....its always cooked breakfast as many dont have porridge, or the porridge they do have is bleurgh!

But it doesnt have to be unhealthy!

I try to have museli to start which is the same pretty much anywhere! With semi skimmed milk. Poached egg on wholemeal toast is a good option. Beans on toast isnt even too bad! I would steer away from fried egg and bacon if you can?

Sausages are also not a great option, however....they are protien. I'll leave that up to you!

Lunch I have been buying from Greggs this week as they are pretty much at every service station which is great! They do a ham salad bloomer without mayo. Ideally there would be less bread! But as I hate mayo its a great option for me as its filling, the salad is fresh and not soggy (so far!) and they sell special K crisps! Which really give a feeling of fullness!

Dinners I struggle with as I am SO fussy! At home I eat chicken pretty much 5 days a week (in various forms) but its difficult at hotels to find chicken not smothered in something!

So I opt for steak (protein) which is fine as long as we are swapping chips for salad or vegtables which I am first to admit I am not always strong enough to do!

So overall I am eating more whilst out and about than when at home!

I have continued my work outs. I am currently completing Brazilian Butt Lift by Beachbody and was able to bring along my "booty band" , resistance band and small ankle weights in my suitcase without too much hassle. So no excuses!

I am doing my best to get through the week and not pig out too much! Especially as I have a dress to get into this weekend!x
