What I Ate Wednesday: Tuesday’s Eats
Happy What I Ate Wednesday!
Today, I decided to mix up my usual format. Usually, I write out my dinners for a week. But I thought I’d do it the old-fashioned way (aka, the way that everyone else does it) and post a day worth of eats for you today. I personally find them a bit boring. But at the same time, I read everyone else’s eats for a day, so, who knows? Maybe you guys will enjoy it as well?
P.S., I’m not reporting water intake. Because I lost track. My bad!

Breakfast:
Pretty typical breakfast for me. I commute, so I need something I can eat on-the-go. I’ve been trying to find a healthier cereal to much on. Right now I’m trying out ‘Whole Hearts’, because I liked the ingredient list. Plus, coffee & a banana. The last part’s pretty usual for me, but sometimes I have a Homemade Clif Bar or a bagel instead of the cereal.

Work:
I made a cup of that Emergen-cy stuff (but it’s knock-off, cause I’m cheap). I’ve been sick, and everyone at work is dropping like fleas, so this sounded like a good idea, today.
–
Snack:
Around 10:30 I got a little munchy, so I grabbed an orange. I accidentally bought blood oranges, which I usually don’t purchase, but they’ve been pretty tasty. It wasn’t so much my accident as the grocery store mis-labeling the Navel oranges. No big!
–
Lunch:
I forgot/didn’t bring my lunch (you decide which), so I grabbed Subway. It’s about the only ‘fast-food’ the town I work in has, but if there’s only going to be one, Subway’s what I choose! I usually get the Turkey-Ham on wheat, with all the veggies except lettuce (ew) and jalapenos. I also got Sun Chips – this new(ish) 6 Grain Medley is pretty good! Plus, I got a cherry-coke. Yes, I’m drinking soda again, but it’s a conscious choice, not an addiction any more. (Thank God.)

Fuel:
On my drive home, I had a couple FRS Energy Chews form my Bulu Box. They aren’t my absolute favorite, but give me a little jolt to gear up for my workout when I get back to town.
–
Dinner:
Phyll made chicken fajitas for dinner. Yum! Easy but oh-so-tasty.
–
Snacktime:
Well, this is probably dinner-extended, but I was still hungry after the fajita so I had a couple cheese sticks from dinner over the weekend. That (pretty much) did the trick!
Whew! It’s hard tracking an entire day. I don’t know how people normally do it!
What do you think of the different format for today?
What do you normally have for an on-the-go breakfast? I’d love ideas!

I grab a hard-boiled egg in the morning or a banana, then I have sweet potato hash with scrambled eggs (big batch made up for several day) that I heat up once I get to work. The Chicken Fajita’s look yummy.

I’ve never had sweet potato hash. What’s it like/how to make?
I’m beginning to think I’m doomed to just heat up food at work if I want a healthy breakfast.

I’ve been munching on oranges for a snack too. It is citrus fest at a local market here in Austin, so I loaded up on pretty much every citrus that exists haha.
My own the go breakfasts include anything that can fit into the tupperware container. I’ll make oatmeal or a greek yogurt parfait. If I have to eat really quick I’ll grab a luna bar, make a breakfast wrap the night before, or grab a banana.

Nice! I never used to like oranges, but they’re a great snack – they almost don’t feel healthy with how tasty they are.
I hear you with the tupperware! (As you probably noticed, lol.) You sound waaaay more organized than me. Very nice!
Checking out your blog … nutrition student with a donut header? Haha, love it!

Subway is my go-to, I-forgot-to-pack-my-lunch of choice. I mean, I know it’s not exactly whole food, but isn’t it great? I love it! Luckily, its the only thing in my building! Lol.

Honestly, I don’t think it can be that bad! I mean, I know we don’t know much about the bread, but otherwise it’s pretty straightforward if you stick to the deli cuts. Lucky you that you’ve got it in your building! I hate leaving when it’s this cold outside

Honestly, I can’t do on the go breakfasts…I gotta have my oats with PB.
Jan 25, 2013 @ 19:37:54
That does seem to be the popular opinion! I don’t know, I might have to end up a convert.
Jan 23, 2013 @ 21:27:52
Subway is by far my favorite go to healthy fast food option

I agree! There are so many ways you can mix it up. No excuse to have the same thing twice, plus MANY of the options are healthy. Good stuff!

I love Sunchips.. even though I rarely eat chips anymore
But if I did, I’d pick the harvest cheddar.. YUM.
I’ve tried that Emergen-C stuff last winter when everyone in the office was getting sick and I found it quite gross.. I’d rather chew a bunch of my C vitamins and drink tea lol.
I don’t know how some people put their daily eats.. every day. Once a week is plenty!

I tend to not buy chips in bulk, but I do like them with my sub
.
I don’t think it’s that bad. Of course, I’ve never had the legit brand, just the knock off, haha! So maybe that’s better?
I know, right? It was so hard to remember to take pics of everything. You just get hungry!
