Weigh In #3 - Postponed

I am sorry to disappoint you all but I had to postpone weigh in #3. Simply put I am in Fort McMurray (I know, cry for me) and could not access my scale!!! I weigh myself every friday morning and I could not do it today :( I was upset at first, that I couldn't share any news with you - but if we look on the bright side it means I can share even better news next friday. 

Being in Fort McMurray has forced me to overcome some difficult issues. HOW ON EARTH DO I EAT HEALTHY OUT OF TOWN? It is so hard to do. I have grabbed some snacks from the grocery store, but I miss my morning oatmeal. I miss my Kashi and yogurt. I've been trying to eat the best I can, but it's been a challenge. 

We at Boston Pizza for dinner tonight. I had a spinach salad while everyone else had Boston Brutes and pizza and fries. It was depressing. Last night we ate at a pub where I had a greek salad and everyone else ate poutine, burgers and more fries. It is so much harder than at home. At home I tell Marek what we are eating and that is that. He doesn't eat fries and burgers in front of me.

I would love some advice on eating on the proverbial road! Healthy places to eat, good snacks etc. Please!!!

The second obstacle was going to the gym after working a 10 hour day. But I did it. I was fortunate enough to have the company of two of my coworkers. The gym in our hotel is under renovations so we went to the Syncrude Centre for Wellness. I had a great workout and it went by quickly since the cardio equipment had personal TVs on each one. So cool. 

That's it. Exhausted.

    Bron says it never hurts to order a salad with grilled chicken breast and dressing on the side. I travel a lot for work too - Love Bron!
