I'm off to a conference. No idea what the next few days hold for me food-wise but I am DEDICATED so hopefully I will stay 90% on plan. That's my goal.

Best wishes for an On Plan week to all of you!

Emma - you can do it! I've been on work travel for 2 weeks (4 weeks in Nov in total) and will be for another 2 weeks after the New Year. You can do it - stock up on snacks as "just in case" at a local pharmacy or grocery store (I got rice chips, jerky, nuts, SF gum and cheese sticks all at Rite Aid). I took a few extra pieces of whole fruit when offered during "breaks" so I always had an apple or banana with me as well. It might mean lots of salads but it's totally doable!

The whole lunch thing was supposed to be <550 calories, I didn't eat the red potatoes (tried one, they were weird). The broccoli was fab, and I'm sure the sauce had minor added carbs, sugar, but I thought pretty good.

Twynn, it's going good. I'll continue for a bit. This week I lapsed one time and had a very upset stomach after, who knows if it was the wheat or something else.
