It is possible! I promise!

I CANNOT stress how much I have learned that food prep is KEY in keeping a healthy lifestyle and sticking to a "strict" transformation plan.  I have learned this OVER and OVER during the last few weeks that I have been on this plan.  I used to get hungry and eat junk because it was easily accessible and quick. Sometimes I may not even have wanted it but it was fast and easy so I just turned to a drive-thru or something. Can you relate? Now I plan my meals and prep containers with healthy options so I don't make a bad choice when my belly starts to growl and I need to fuel. 

See these salads?  Don't they look awesome?  Well, for those times that you are eating out or need to eat something without having to go home and cook...don't go through the drive-thru to get a bag of grease....there are better options!  The top salad was from my recent trip to California.  We were out and I stopped by a Greek place to get a salad.  I tossed the pita because it wasn't 100% Whole Wheat..but devoured the rest.  Lots of veggies, small amount of feta (it should have been reduced sodium or low fat Feta but I'm sure it wasn't), lemon juice all over, and a protein punch of grilled chicken. The next two salads are from one of my favorite places in AZ....Pita Jungle.  I get the broiled chicken salad with their lemon vinaigrette on the side.  The bottom one is a similar salad with roasted peppers and salmon.  Can it get much better than that?  See...I think I just proved my point that eating out doesn't HAVE to sabotage your desires to achieve better health.  No excuses!  :)
