Help Me Eat Tonight!

May 13th, 2010 Tyson

OK people. Here is the deal. I need your help and I need it bad.  I have a basketball game tonight at 8:15. The problem lies in the fact that I didn’t bring anything to eat before the game and I live 40 miles away. I need suggestions on what I can eat from a grocery store or fast food (gross I know) that is cheap, healthy, and will give me the energy that I need to do my best at tonight’s game.

Should I eat some fruit, vegetables, jerky, chicken breast, salad…???

Please help!

    CHIPOTLE!

      I was actually thinking of hitting that Mexican place by the Mill Valley High School that we went to this last winter. Might be a little heavy though.

    How about a Jimmy John’s Unwich? http://www.jimmyjohns.com/menu/menu.aspx

    I’ll do one of those in a pinch if I have a workout later on, otherwise, it’s the standard iFast. As @rsgrice put it, “If you can’t go primal, go hungry.”

      Until recently I thought I had a gluten intolerance. I just found out I don’t but I have yet to test it out to be sure. Not sure if I want to test that on basketball night though. Might not be pretty! :)

      Good suggestion though. Thanks!

    The unwich is all of the sandwich fillings wrapped in lettuce, not bread. No need to worry about gluten.

      Ha! I thought that was a misspelling. I definitely am going to go try that. I didn’t know that existed there. I get asked all the time to go to Jimmy John’s with co-workers but always pass based on it being a sandwich shop.

      Thanks again!

    No problem. There’s a Jimmy John’s close to my job that I’ll go to if I’m desperate. I don’t like to work out on an empty stomach because of the cortisol that is released. The mayo and cheese are questionable (not sure how strict you are), so you may want to have them hold those.

    Good luck tonight!

      I am not a fan of either mayo or cheese so I will definitely hold off on those. Thanks again.

    Just as an FYI to all that helped, I got the Unwich from Jimmy Johns last night. No Mayo and no cheese. It was surprisingly good and held together very well. Thanks to all for the suggestions!
