Thankfully my actual diet is fine from what they tell me.

I like Chipotle, but yeah, it is easy to over-do it there and it isn't all that inexpensive...
Most of the time it's not too bad because I can get two meals out of a burrito. But on hard-ride days, I tend to inhale the things!

Yesterday:
B: Bagel with cream cheese and coffee (with half a packet of hot cocoa mix stirred into it because they ran out of sugar )
L: Roast beef sandwich, can of Coke.
Fast 26-mile ride (~1 oz beef jerky, a whole tube of Shot Bloks, water)
1% milk mixed with mocha protein drink, two chocolate-covered cookies.
3 pieces chicken left over from Thursday.

Today:
B: Skipped it because of last-minute packing
L: Chicken sandwich with lettuce and onions, yellow and orange bell pepper strips dipped in jalapeno hummus, and low-salt potato chips. A banana.
S: Pita chips with cilantro chutney, 2 very thin slices of orange-cranberry-almond pound cake.
D: I think it's going to be beef curry, potatoes, cauliflower with tomato sauce and something else. I don't know what that is, though.
