***As for Snacks on the go. Here is a list of choices. 

If I didn't have food readily available I would not be able to stick to my diet. If you do not have Tupperware I suggest running out and buying some. I get mine from the dollar store. Dead serious. I love the dollar store. Okay I'm done being weird. 

I cut up all my fruits and veggies as soon as I get them. It makes it so easy to just grab a handful, put it in a Ziploc bag and leave. For example today on my family day trip I packed cantaloupe and celery sticks to munch on. They were already cut so I didn't have to stress about taking time away to chop it all up.

• whole banana
• go lean protein bars by Kashi
• zone perfect protein bars
