Vacay question

I wasn't sure where to post this, so here goes...

I'm just 6 wks out and took a mini vacay close to home for the 4th. Now....any food suggestions when traveling (across country)? I'm going to visit family in a couple of weeks and will be in a rental car traveling around during a those 2 weeks; staying a couple of days with one, a couple with another until I fly home at the end of the month. Help! I don't feel I was a successful this past weekend as I could have been. My activity level as good, but food was a mess. Any suggestions would be appreciated. I've been able to get most of my Protein from food with minimal coming from shakes. So...any ideas out there? Thanks!

I travel on weekends alot and what works for me is a small cooler packed with some essentials, greek yogurt, cheesesticks, chicken breast chunks (I don't mind it cold) and then I have recently become addicted to Cocoa dusted almonds, that are great and have some protein, also boiled eggs are good if you like them, hope it helps and enjoy your vacay!

I am almost 8 weeks out and my husband was just in the hospital and of course, only eating 3 ounces at a time, the cafeteria had a salad bar, which had diced meat, cheeses, cottage cheese, so I was able to pick and choose out of that...if all else fails you might want to give that a try.

I just got home from a week plus vacation and packed a small cooler. We ate out nightly and I'd get chicken, etc and had ziplocks on hand to put leftovers in cooler for next day's lunch. Cottage cheese, cheese sticks, unsweetened applesauce, boiled eggs do travel nicely.
