    Have you tried IF? You could use today as a chance to get reacquainted with real hunger...I do this sometimes and use it as an opportunity to reflect on true hunger vs boredom. Good luck!

    Do you have a chipotle or a taco del mar? A naked burrito without rice - black beans, cabbage, chicken, salsa, etc. - isn't so bad.

    Panera pick two... Turkey on Country White with mustard and LF Chicken Noodle soup. For the side I always take the apple and save it for my afternoon snack.

    Chick-fil-A chargrilled chicken sandwich + fruit cup

    It's just grilled chicken breast, tomato, lettuce and a whole grain bun.

    I found out real fast that Subway should be my go to place while I am on my journey...6" sub on wheat, their low fat ones will all be good when out on the road.

    You can also get a grilled chicken sandwitch at Mcdonalds and any other place and eat that with a salad and light dressing.

    if you get something like these 2 with water you'll be pretty good.

    When I have to eat on the road because of work, I run by a grocery store. Pick up some Greek yogurt, a banana, baby carrots, and some lean meat from the deli. You'll be amazed how much better this is than fast food. You'll be in and out of the grocery store quickly, it is cheaper than most fast food, and you are way healthier!

    I'm Canadian, so I don't know if you have Extreme Pita out your way, but any pita place should offer something similar -- a small felafel whole wheat pita with tzatziki clocks in at around 300 calories and is very filling.
