I will be traveling to England in a few weeks, and I'm concerned about finding food that I can eat when I'm not in a position to prepare it myself. Any suggestions as to eating places to go, items that work well when toted in a purse, and so on? I'm six months out, with no menu restrictions, but I'm worried about getting in all the Protein I need (plus, I need to stay away from current buns, which I dearly love...). I know that I can eat the wonderful cheese, but three weeks of that seems a bit much.

Any thoughts?

Thanks!

I am sure the local restaurants and pubs serve up shepards pie, steak, chicken, lots of different kinds of curries and a large variety of foods that are higher in Protein. If you want get some Protein powder single packages (of a kind you like) or get snack size sandwich baggies and measure out one scoop per bag from a tub. Take a shaker bottle with one of those mixers in it and you can get milk when you are there to mix. Or mix with Water if you like it that way. Find a Protein Bar you like and pack them with you for Snacks. Nuts are a good snack that are higher in protein (may also be higher in salt so watch water retention). Wonderful cheese is also a good higher protein snack.

Hope these ideas help you.

I live in England and it's quite easy actually eating out, at most restaurants you can get dishes that are suitable for us, fish, chicken, beef, Soups. The good thing is that portions are MUCH smaller than in the States, and when you order just ask for salad instead of chips (fries). The chain restaurant Frankie and Benny's is quite good and can usually adapt the dishes if you ask them to. You can also order a starter as a main, I ussually orders king prawns for example from the starter menu as a main and they're yummy and full of protein!

You can also go into supermarkets

(tesco express-you don't want to spend to long in the supermarket!) and as Autmnlily said get nuts, or even little packs of ham, snack size peperami to have in your handbag in case you get hungry. There's a really good organic Peanut Butter without added sugar here that i find really good as a snack with slices of apple when i feel like something sweet. Just message me if you want any more advice, I'm 10 months out and eat out a lot, hope this helps
