Every work day I pack my breakfast and lunch in a cooler so that I know I will have the appropriate healthy foods to eat for the day. Usually, I prepare my lunch the night before as I have found that eating Plant Based requires quite a bit of food preparation, and as we all know, I have precious little time in the mornings.
Today was no different. I packed my breakfast. I packed my lunch. I packed my water bottle filled with iced water and lime juice. I packed my iced black tea (unsweetened, of course). However, my day kind of got derailed and I found myself out of the office with a client for almost the entire day. In fact, when lunchtime rolled around, my client insisted that we go out to lunch at a Mexican food place!! I certainly could not bring my pre-packed plant based lunch into the Mexican food place. But, lo and behold, they had a create your own salad option. I was able to eat a nice salad, filled with veggies, and even chickpeas and walnuts, and a mustard vinaigrette. It was delicious and filling. I was so proud of myself for making a healthy choice (despite the fact that I LOVE Mexican food), and I was happy that it wasn't difficult and that I was satisfied.
So mission accomplished! On track for the day! No regrets. :-)
