Today was the day that the team traveled from RTP to the RTP Datacenter up in Sterling VA. I can tell you that eating out was going to be a challenge, so here is what occurred.
Breakfast was easy, I went with the HSH Nutridozen bread with some almond butter. I did make some coffee as I had to be up and ready to leave by 7.30.
Around 11 we stopped at a gas station for some gas. I did my best to attempt to find a snack that was E2 compliant. I figured nuts might be my best option. There was so many choices though that were not allowed. Some with added salt, others roasted in oils, others dipped in chocolate. I did find these Barcelona ones, and turned the 3 into a trail mix for the road.
We made it to the DC4/DC5 around 1pm and stopped at a Pei Wei (a most fast food joint that is affiliated with PF Changs). There were several 'vegetarian' options. While I am not sure how E2 compliant they were, I think I made the best choice that was available to me.
Spicy Korean Vegetarian - Korean hot pepper sauce, garlic, white mushrooms, onions, carrots, long beans, toasted sesame seeds
For dinner the group of 10 decided to go to the Olive Garden. I can honestly say there were not many options. I am thinking that I fell off the wagon this evening. I did ask for the healthy Gluten Free menu, and thought I had ordered a dish with mushrooms and onions along with gluten pasta, but for some reason it was just sauce 'blended' with mushroom and onion :-( I also broke down and ordered the Caesar Salad and had a couple of the breaksticks... Overall, a pretty poor performance on my end. I plan on checking out the workout room in the morning along with a nice long time in the hot tub.

You should be allowed to slip up occasionally as long as you get back on track
