Glad to be Home!

Snowy Syracuse

dsc03710.jpg

I don’t know how people live there. The outdoors are simply off-limits when it’s snowy and windy! You have to live 100% indoors. That sucks!

 

Morning Snack

dsc03711.jpg

Lunch

Lunch was a disappointment. I started with a club sandwich with swiss, turkey and ham Also had a plate of fruit, a pickle and 2 bites of Christmas cookies!

dsc03713.jpg

When I opened the sandwich, however, I discovered it was COVERED in mayo (full fat, most likely). I thought I could just take off one slice of bread and eat it open faced. Then I discovered the ham was really salty. At that point I went back for a wrap to try to change directions! I kept the original turkey and tomato though, so I ate parts of that.

dsc03717.jpg

The new wrap was chicken, mushroom and Italian dressing, but luckily the dressing was only on one side. I ate pieces of the chicken and some of the mushrooms and about 2/3 of the tortilla (which I’m sure was not whole wheat despite it’s color and probably had trans-fats in it 🙁 )

dsc03718.jpg

I ate all my fruit plus some more since I was still hungry and not feeling very satisfied. The second plate isn’t pictured.

The cookies were delicious and really hit the spot!

So I had two more bites, one pictured here.

My stomach was unhappy when our meetings resumed, but more significantly my brain was unsatisfied with the lunch. I should have just eaten the first sandwich without the ham, but oh well. I still felt hungry, but it calmed after 20 minutes or so so I guess I just had to catch up.

Snacks

I had a kashi bar at the airport – where I couldn’t get the WiFi to work :angry: Sorry, no photo.

I was starving when my flight took off at 4:45 and welcomed a 60-calorie pack of soy nuts, pretzels, and sesame sticks. And a seltzer.

Dinner

Had only 45 minutes to grab something to eat in Washington, but since I’d spent 5 hours there the day before I knew my options. I was craving a salad, so salad it was. The California Chicken with sun-dried tomatoes, soggy croutons, kalamata olives, and a garliky but good avocado dressing of which I had about a tsp. After starting to eat, I had to take dinner on the plane because we started to board – not quite the ideal dining experience!

dsc03723.jpg

Also grabbed more fresh fruit, which seems to be the world’s #1 grab and go healthy food. Some of my grapes were rotten though 🙁

dsc03722.jpg

dsc03724.jpg

The whole she-bang, including my LaraBar for dessert! Total calories ~ 631. I needed the fuel!

dsc03721.jpg

Dessert

I don’t eat bars that much, but they’re hard to beat when you’re on the go. I like LaraBars, but I don’t eat them often because they are on the high-cal side. But this seemed like the perfect dessert considering my dinner only totaled about 400 calories and I was pretty low over the day, all things considered. I ate this guy really slowly and he was great. Really hit the spot.

dsc03725.jpg

Total Tuesday calories: ~ 1665

– 444 through morning workout. I’m sure I burned more through airport walking and lugging my bags around, but I have no way of guessing. Maybe add 100?

=net of 1221 ish.

    ugh… it sucks when you get bad food and you don't really have a choice! this always happens in airports!
    i'm flying to central america next weekend… and i'm packing some snacks because I don't want to depend on the airport food and even worse, the AIRPLANE food! yuck! Do you have any suggestions for snacks that can hold me over for long periods of time?

    hi- it's steph from CK. Elle told me about your blog and I check in occasionally; i find your persistence and mindfulness re. all things food to be inspiring. Anyhoo, just wanted to let you know that the "free wi fi" in the syr airport has NEVER worked for me – our dinner guest was commenting on that last night. Sorry you came on such a wretched day, it really *has* been awful out there. 🙁 It's gorgeous in the summer, for what it's worth….

    Patricia,

    The foods that hold me over the longest are heavy foods that make me full – yogurt with nuts, oatmeal with fruit and nuts. Oatmeal is easily transported (you just need a microwave and some clean water!). Tuna packets are really easy to pack and mix for a snack. Bananas and apples – when paired with crackers or nuts – make great snacks on the go. I like LaraBars and the new Think Organic bars (or anything made with raw fruit/nuts) and think they hold me over well. (See today's snack post soon!).

    HTH,

    K
