Training is primarily the "doing" but for me, I realize the food is also part of the plan. Planning is key, so I am going to start some blog posts just about my food strategy, if you will.
Breakfast:
Again for me, breakfast is rarely a problem. On good or routine days, my staple is a Special K protein bar (mmm...love those peanut butter & chocolate ones!) or 2 baby bel cheeses. On a weekend or hungry day, a bowl or two of cheerios usually works great. Once every couple of weeks, DH makes homemade French Toast, which is too good of a treat to pass up. I just need to be mindful of portions & add some protein to the entree, as well as limiting carbs the rest of the day.
Lunch:
Here is where lack of planning gets me in trouble every time. Work is often so hectic I don't make the time to have my mid morning snack. As a result, I am typically hungry when lunch time rolls around. If I haven't packed, you can almost bet I am going to make a bad choice. If I get too hungy and yet I have packed, I will still usually make a bad choice. My best stragegy is to EAT A MID MORNING SNACK and pack something I actually enjoy for lunch.
