[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I'm petite, but I have the genes to gain a lot of weight if I'm not careful. I try as much as possible to stick to what I would eat at home when I travel.[b] Instead of ordering the egg and bacon plate for breakfast, I order the oatmeal with a piece of toast and black coffee. Same for lunch (a basic sandwich) and dinner. What would I eat at home? What is similar on the menu?[/b]

I keep an afternoon snack on hand (a handful of peanuts are filling), and aim to put in more than 10,000 steps on my Fitbit, which usually isn't too hard when travelling. [/quote]

I hate to break it to you but eggs and bacon is probably better for you than oatmeal and toast.  You're basically consuming a lot of carbs and not any protein.  Eggs and bacon are not bad for you.  Especially if you substitute for turkey bacon.[/quote]

NP. Hate to break it you, but if she finds oatmeal and toast filling, then there is nothing wrong with it. Whole grains are very good for you, and protein is not across-the-board the better option for everybody.

Especially bacon and eggs from a restaurant that are usually friwd/cooked in god-knows-what with tons of added calories. You can control calories way more with toast and oatmeal than you can with someone else frying up your eggs and bacon.

But stick to your low carb manttra. I guess.[/quote]
