Other options:
- Protein mix - keep the powder & a shaker handy w/ water
- Pre-cooked cut up chicken or even turkey slices as protein
- boiled eggs (though I can only handle a small number of these at one time because of the texture)
- almonds
- natural peanut butter & a spoon

No, I'm usually at the gym or out somewhere. Anyway, I'm new to all this and I don't really know what to prepare. All I know is lean meats. But I love potatoes, can I have those? Or chicken flavoured rice? I'm going to gradually try to adapt.
I prepare all my meals on Sunday and am good to go for the whole week. My first cycle I worked 50-60 hours a week 2 jobs. Planning is key if you do not plan for sucess you are bound to fail.xxxpinkladyxxx said:
Well this is what I do, I clean, season, and store my meats in ziplocks by day then freeze them, I do this on Sunday. I also clean all my veggies and place them into ziplocks. I make a pot of brown rice on sunday and store that in a container in the fridge. Then every night after I've been at work for 8 hours and at the gym for another 2 hours, I go home and cook a package of the meat. Eat 1 piece of the meat that night and bring the other with me to work the next day.
My nightly routine is this
put yogurt in a container, put 1 cup of rice and meat in another container, put a can of tuna in a container, 2 tbsp of peanut butter in another container, and veggies in ziplocks. And all of that food comes with me to work the next day.
Yes it takes time to adapt but really if you want to eat well then you'll make the time to prepare.

When I worked (got laid off) I used to take a big bag with me with about 12 plastic containers with all my food in it to work..... I spent maybe 1 hour a night planning all my food the next day.....
Try: string cheese, yogurt, cottage cheese, almonds, peanuts, meats (My fav was turkey dipped in mustard or turkey rolled around a pickle!!), tuna or salmon in the pouch, fruit, protein shakes, etc....
For your lunch hour, have some soup or salad or rice + a protein.... Have breakky in the am B4 you leave work & have 2 plastic containers with snacks that you can keep in your desk that don't need refrigeration..... You'll get it...
Cooking clean was hard at first because I would prep food every day. Now I really don't. I just make enough food for a couple of days 3 times a week. I measure everything out while I'm having a bit of downtime and watching tv. Everyone has 20-30 minutes chunks of downtime either in the morning or at night. It's so easy to just prep out food while chilling out. It doesn't have to be stressful.
I just prepped out all of tomorrow's food and figured it out on fitday. I let myself have treats over the holidays (in moderation). I'm 100% fine with that. But damn it feels good to be back to normal. My body was screaming for veggies!
Prepping food stops me from cheating on my diet by about 99%. I'm usually so full at work I don't need candy or cookies. I always keen raw almonds at work and cottage cheese in the fridge.
