  • I love Chick-Fil-A! The grilled chicken sandwich is great and it's on a wheat bun! Also when desperate, McDonald's grilled chicken Caesar with no dressing, or for breakfast, ham and cheese McMuffin.

  • Breakfast, breakfast, breakfast. Make sure you eat a healthy (protein and fiber) breakfast, then schedule out your meals and snacks on your food diary in advance. Pack it and take it to work and keep on your eating schedule. You do need to eat. Food is your fuel.

  • I am not a pro, but I did train for and run a half-marathon in March. I can't give you official advice, but I can share what helped me.
