Travelling & Eating Healthy...

....its a tricky art to master!

I've not made it to the gym, not even once, working every hour god sends and I point blank refuse to sacrifice the 6 hours sleep I've had each night. Breakfast meetings, dinners - its so hard to stay healthy!

I had 5 minutes peace and quiet this morning to get my breakfast down me. Instant oats made with hot water from the vending machine - just keep it covered and stir well and its usually ok. There's a Waitrose below my office and picked up some Quark to mix with my prepacked protein powder. I pinched one of the tubs from the olive counter to mix it up in. Waaaala! Clean, and healthy breakfast for 270 calories, 23g or carbs, 37g of protein and 4g of fat.



I have a friend I've travelled with and he boils eggs in the hotel kettle. Not.Even.Lying.... 9 times out of ten it works, perhaps ruins the kettle in the process but there was a disaster when the egg cracked and stunk out the hotel. Ming!

This trip has been pretty stressful and I arrived at my hotel on Tuesday night exhausted and bordering emotional. I stay in a lovely boutique hotel/private members club Shoreditch House from time to time, definitely check it out if you're looking for a funking place in London to stay. Madonna had her birthday party here, I've never bumped into Madonna but my top celeb spot was Dermot O'Leary last summer. PS - it has a roof top pool. Amaziballs!!!

Anyway I digress.... 30 minutes after checking in and sitting in my jammies there was a knock at the door. The wonderful receptionist had brought me up pizza, chips and wine and told me to chill and relax. Lovely man! I could have hugged him for being so kind but also slapped him for ruining my diet. I only ate 3 slices.... weeeeeeeell, maybe a couple more ;-)



Doing my best to navigate the tricky world of travelling and healthy eating. I'm sure this week is a total write off in terms of any progress but hey, its my life no point me complaining.

Love
