Whole Foods Lifestyle - Whole Foods menu for Thursday, 8/17

I hope you guys don't mind me starting the thread, but when my lunch for the next day is all packed up, it helps to write it down!

Breakfast
poached egg
light string cheese

Lunch
tuna salad

Dinner
Baked tilapia
Salad with romaine, tomatoes, radishes, carrots, purple onion, FF feta and Newman's Own italian dressing

Snacks if needed
Cashews, almonds, dried cranberries

I'll have a challenge tomorrow for the least--I'm heading to the airport at 5:00 to fly to SLC to watch over my parents for a few days. Mom just had a mitral valve replacement and Dad isn't so good at driving, and usually my brother and SIL are there to help out, but they are driving their DD to college in Oregon, so I'm going up there. Our airport, albeit an "international" airport, is really small and basically shuts down each night, and I really doubt there will be any food vendors open at 5:30 when I arrive, so I may have to forego most of my breakfast (you know they won't let me take anything through security). Then, when I arrive in SLC at 10:00, what will be my choices? Seems to me it is nothing but fast food and cinnamon buns. ICK!!!!!!!
I've told my Mom that I plan on going through her pantry and then going to Costco and the grocery store to stock up on a lot of staples for her. Then all she has to shop for is fresh foods. It will make it easier for her. But I can just imagine it......hunger.....looking at the pantry and then heading to the stores......still hungry????....buying the wrong things.....
I'll have to exercise a lot of control!!!!!
I know I've been really good for the past few weeks and I intend to introduce my parents to this whole food thing.....lets hope they appreciate it!!! I've really had a hankering for fish lately, so I guess that is what I'll choose for dinner tomorrow (8/17)!

Probably too late Allison, but I flew from Portland last weekend, and I could take food through, just not liquids! I got no hassle over my apple. :) Given that airlines seldom serve food these days, and what they sell isn't great, I always try to bring something from home (the return is more problematic). My best things are apples (cut into slices), hard boiled eggs (peeled), and whole wheat bagels or crackers. I've tried cheese, but it tends to get squished and just icky :lol: If nothing else, you can always take an energy bar like Luna, or Pria. Not great in the Superfoods sense, but way better than a cinnamon bun. :)

Ok... Day 3 for me and so far I'm loving this!

Breakfast
whole wheat toast with natural peanut butter and honey
yogurt with blueberries

Lunch
Grean pepper stuffed with ground turkey breast, spinach, brown rice, tomatoes, onions, and mushrooms

walnuts and dark chocolate
prunes

I can't believe how good food tastes! I'll never touch "regular" peanut butter again. I always had this irrational fear that natural sugar free peanut butter would taste like oh I don't know...tree bark? For some reason my mind could not fathom that it would taste like <gasp> PEANUTS!
