Okay, admit it, bad decisions are made in hungry moments! So don't even go there. Arm yourself with an awesome lunch box every day. Fill it up. Have enough to get you through your whole day! A snack about every two to three hours. Then add an extra item for the drive home to keep you out of that drive-thru.
Lunch stuff:
Romaine lettuce with turkey, pork, or beef cold cuts in a taco like form. Romaine leave are usually shaped in a way that they make a great "wrap." Add some cheese, peppers, pickle, mustard... you get the idea. About four of these makes an excellent mid-day meal like snack.
Of course you want a yogurt every day so put one in there! Either your own mixture with plain/fruit/sweetener or a flavor!
A boiled egg or two. Having these in the fridge is great so you can grab and chuck them in there. Salt & Pepper them if you like.
Any of the snacks from the recipes posted earlier are good too. Do celery and peanut butter one day and cream cheese or yogurt dip and broccoli another. Mix it up!
Cold cut rolls. Mix cream cheese with spices (even horseradish) and spread i on the cold cut. Add a cucumber or pickle cut into a thin strip. Roll it up. Chop it into sections. It's good. Really.
And then there's what I call space foods. The pre-packaged life savers. EAS shakes, atkins bars, beef jerky, nuts etc. Put one of these in there too. I always have the EAS for breakfast after my workout. It's perfect!
I'll add more as it comes to mind.
