I learned how to eat correctly to fuel my gains years ago, however a change in lifestyle is making it extremely difficult to eat right.
I just graduated college, and I am now working a job that keeps me away from the house from 730 am - 730 pm. I like the work (IT audit) but 10 hour days combined with almost an hour of travel each way is putting a huge dent in my eating and lifting habits. Sometimes its a miracle I have the energy to lift at night, but as you can guess, that's not my biggest problem - my meals are.
So, I'm looking for some advice who have been in similar positions. What are some easy meals that I can make to pack with me to take to work? Fast dinners? Give me some examples of how I can minimize the time needed to prepare solid meals. Actually, any general tips to help me fit nutrition/lifting into a busy professional lifestyle would be great.
I'm not an idiot, I know how to eat. But I just don't have the time to devote towards preparing food/eating it like I used to. I want to stay the course and keep the gains I have made, if not make more gains.
