I’ve been living in a hotel with a few breaks for about 18 months now. Fortunately my hotel room has a kitchen area with a fridge, microwave, and sink, so I can sort of prepare my own food.
Here’s what I’ve been eating:
Protein shakes – Shakeology after my workout, casein before bed. I blend Greek yogurt with the casein because otherwise casein is quite gritty. I keep a Hamilton Beach Blender with me.
Tuna – I mix this with Greek yogurt and mustard, or sometimes I mix it with tzaziki sauce.
Pure Protein bars – I reviewed them here. I’ve always got one in my purse…I never know when a hunger emergency is going to hit.
Fruit and Veggies – Some of my co-workers are afraid to eat vegetables here in Mexico, but I don’t mind. I get them from Costco, and they’re the exact same packages as I buy in the US. I get a banana everyday from the local fruit stand. Bananas are a super food to keep you young and protect muscles from cramping, perfect for my Insanity workouts.
Eggs – we have a breakfast buffet at the hotel, and I order three eggs over easy every day. Every day! Let’s hope that whole eggs-raise-cholesterol is in fact a myth.
Well, I don’t eat this way every day…after all, I’m in Mexico City so I’d be crazy not to indulge in the local cuisine!
What’s for lunch today?
