The Fast Food Diaries......I ate fast food all day today!!!

Submitted by Skye on Fri, 07/18/2008 - 19:15.

A day in the life of my personal food diary. I am a busy woman! I work anywhere from 60-80 hours a week, and I have a 2 year old son who wants the rest of my time. Therefor cooking and grocery shopping are not high on the priority list, but my health is. So here is an example of my "Fast Food" for today.

Breakfast: I ate 2 scoops of the Luna Essentials Body Shake with 10 ozs of organic milk.
Total prep time ~ 2minutes.

FYI: for those of you who have not tried our shake mix, it ROCKS! The chocolate, my favorite, taste like brownie mix. The perfect quick fix when you're craving chocolate during the P.M.S or menstrual phase of your monthly cycle!

Snack: 1 oz mozzarella string cheese and a medium banana.
Total prep time~less than 1 minute

Lunch: 2 cups of mixed baby field greens (salad in a bag), 1/2 avocado, 1/2 cup red grapes, and 10 almonds with Kraft Light Asian Toasted Sesame dressing.
Total prep time~5 minutes

FYI: This salad dressing ROCKS!!! 2 tablespoons is only 60 calories, which is less than half of most other salad dressings and it taste great!

Snack: South Beach Diet Peanut Butter Protein Bar
Total prep time~less than 1 minute

Dinner: Homemade Veggie Wrap. In a small pan I cooked 1/2 red bell pepper, 1 small shallot, 1/2 zucchini, 1 teaspoon minced garlic, and 1/2 tablespoon of olive oil. After about 3-4 minutes of cooking, I put the veggie mix in a tortilla with some shredded cheese and sour cream. I rolled it up and munched away. Yum O, as Rachel Ray would put it. And if I would have had some left over chicken in the fridge I would have added it as well, which I sometimes do!
Total prep time~10 minutes

So there it is, a day in my life of eating healthy when you're crunched for time. If you combined all the time it took for me to prepare my food for the entire day it was less than 20 minutes!
