Today I drove up to San Francisco to visit some friends. It was a long drive and I have to say that I could have done a better job of being prepared. I did however stop to use a restroom at Carl’s Jr. and made it out of there with only a diet soda since I had a salad from home to eat in the car. I was very proud of myself for resisting temptation and making a good choice. So proud of myself in fact that I didn’t even drink the soda since I wanted to only put healthy things in my body. Only problem was that when I finally got to SF I was starving and in need of much food. Leigh and I went to the Berkeley Bowl a local co-op and bought lots of veggies to take home to snack on. They had like 87 different kinds of carrots and they had my very favorite and hard to find apples, honey-crisp! Yum! Who knew I could get so excited about apples.
I think the key is to travel ultra prepared. I should have included some kind of protein in my snacks, but I made it in one piece and didn’t stop to eat junk food. Tomorrow hiking and possibly a fire ballet? How cool is that!?
So today I ate:
- half grapefruit, banana
- pear
- trader joe’s garden salad with sesame seeds
- sunflower seeds and walnuts (handful)
- honey crisp apple!!
- sushi, 2 sushi rolls, 3 nigiri, 2 veggie rolls
- and hot sake. . . . mmmmm
