Whole9 on Travel

Wow, has it really been 3.5 months since my last blog post?! In my defense, I haven't been blog-lazy....I've just been stupid-busy! Full time work while striding to get all As in full time school classes plus training 10+ hours a week and getting 8 hours of sleep a night has left me with almost no free time. :-/

But, finals are over, I don't have school again for 6 weeks, so here I am!

My new challenge this week? Whole9 while on travel. Today is Day um....11?....on a Whole9 diet. This is pretty major for me as I never make it past days 3 or 5. I always give in to my sweet cravings and bulk. Meh. And why am I not calling it Whole30? Well, technically this round is Whole27; the day after Thanksgiving until 12/21 when I fly to Wisconsin for a week to spending Christmas with the family, where I do plan to indulge and be merry.

If you've read my blog in the past, you know that I'm not stranger to travel and paleo. I've even guest blogged about it (read it here). I'm pretty good with hitting up grocery stores or just making do with what I can find. However, you can't really do Whole9 and "make do", so tonight when I land in Dallas, I'm hitting up the Sprouts Farmers Market (lucky me!) that is within 10 minutes of my hotel.

What's on my list? Well, I was able to secure a hotel room with a microwave and refrigerator and I'm bringing one container of tupperware in my luggage, so the list will contain....

- Packets of Tuna
- Whole9 approved Smoked Salmon
- Packets of Almond Butter
- Avocados, Sweet Potatoes...veggies that can be steamed....
- Coffee and Coconut Milk
- Green Tea packets
- Already cooked chicken/meats from the deli

It's all about planning. My main concern is lunch and afternoon snack; I usually fast in the mornings with tea and coffee, so I just need to make sure I bring plenty of healthy, approved options with me to the customer site.

We'll see how this week goes. Usually I lose weight on travel since when I'm not on travel, I am working from home, just a few steps away from my kitchen......
