So I am currently in Austria on a business trip. The plant where I work does not have a cafeteria. only a vending machine with some sandwiches and other "junk" foods - which I cannot use without a special card that i don't have. So I brought KIND bars and trail mix with me. That was my dinner last night because I was too tired and jet lagged to go look for a store. I went to the store to find some lunch and the store does not take credit card and the ATM did not work!! so it was more nuts and an apple saved from breakfast as my lunch. After work, I went to a different store and was able to purchase groceries and ingredients with my credit card. And I had a very filling veggie salad with carrot and ginger juice as the dressing, and poke bowl for dinner. I have a weeks worth of meals for 50 Euros that is WAY healthier than eating out at restaurants. I am feeling really good about my choices!!!

@maureen-hicks, great job! I admire your commitment. I probably would have used that as an excuse to eat out or order room service.
