On Friday mornings, my office has our weekly breakfast. The company buys a huge supply of fruit and bagels and people just snack all day. It’s been really tough for me in the past not to just pick and pick and pick. To combat this, I’ve stopped eating the bagels and started bringing my usual breakfast. Once I have a delicious NY bagel with aprox a gallon of cream cheese, I feel crummy for the rest of the day. Now I just steal a bowl of fruit to have with my lunch, ergo:

It’s all about finding solutions that work for you, right?

For some reason, between the gym, cleaning, and early bed, I couldn’t get it together last night to make lunch for today. So I thought it would be a good time to buy lunch! :) I went to Guy and Gallard and got a small spinach salad with broccoli, tomatos, roasted red peppers, chickpeas, and peas. This came with a small container of fat-free raspberry vinaigrette, which I had a few forkfuls of. (PS. Of course the one day I leave the office to get lunch, it’s rainy and cold!)

Along with my salad, I got myself a treat:

I love these crisps! I used to eat them all the time, but as I’ve tried to move away from processed foods, they fell off the rotation months ago. But when I saw them at G&G, I knew they should be mine.

All together:

Yum! My body just loooves a truckload of fresh fruits and veggies! Lunch was 445 calories, 85g carbs, 5g fat, and 21g protein.

Have a great afternoon, guys!
