Default Re: traveling

Hi there,

Yikes i can understand why you are worried! That's a lot of events to 'get through'. I go away a lot to family and they now all know I have my routine and they generally get a few things in for me. Some people are less receptive and can be insulted so I tend to eat what I can of their food and in my room have an emergency stash.

Stuff that travels ok includes: cherry tomatos, strips of celery (if you dry them off and put them in a tupperware, and then in a cooler, though I don't have one of these). hardboiled eggs last 3 days or so before they'll kill you (in my experience, though I live in a coolish country). Mini individually wrapped cheeses are good, especially babybel with wax on. Nuts (if on the right rung). Pepperoni is a good meat that doesn't need refrigerating. Little cans of tuna can be good, though mayo might be harder to come by.

I have found that this sort of thing is a state of mind. Sometimes I've 'tried' to stick to plan but not meant it and caved at the slightest thing. Other times I've 'decided' to stick on plan and I do, no matter what.

Good luck!
