Advice? Corporate Meals Today
In looking at my work schedule today, I realize that I don't have a plan for my day. I usually make a reasonable lunch and bring to work, but today I realized it's a coworker's birthday and my team is taking her out. So, I think, I'll just get a salad, and I know how to choose my foods so that it's not a 3,000-calorie salad (no croutons, no breadsticks, dressing on the side, etc.)
Then I realized, this evening my boss is flying into town and wants to meet me for dinner. We haven't decided where, as he's not from here. I'm not going to want to have another salad, though. Suggestions on what to order? I'm also concerned that when I'm ordering, my appetite is going to override my will power, and I'll get a burger or something.
At least I'm deliberating about this. I use the excuse a lot that my "lifestyle" doesn't allow me to be as healthy as I want, and that's not entirely the case. I can set limits, walk in the cold (or mall-walk, even), plan around the rich meals offered by my employer, client, and vendor.
I will come back tonight and post what I had at both meals.
