Traveling

[jennyj]

My uncle passed away suddenly and I am going to have to travel tonight to S.C.

We are driving all night. My question is what do I take with me? The next few days

my diet is going to be turned upside down. I called my DR. and he told me to

make sure and take Imodium with me and to eat carefully. Any advice???

I never travel without some microwave cans of Progresso Chicken Wild Rice soup, you can even find them at drug stores. Pack a cooler with your bread, nut butter, protein bars, whatever else you'd eat at home. We were traveling recently and I ran to the supermarket, bought a rotiserie chicken and small thing of mayo, threw in some dried cranberries and viola - chicken salad.

Take care!

Cook some stuff up, wrap it up and put them in coolers....

You can take trail mix, almonds, Clif Nectar Bars, Organic Food bars, Alpsnack bars, fruit, veggies, Corn Thins or rice cakes with peanut butter, corn chips, a bag of Tinkyada and a jar of sauce (if you'll have access to a kitchen). I'll often bring a big cooler and put as much stuff in it as possible. Carry food around with you so you're never in a situation where you'll eat something potentially unsafe because you're hungry.

Thank you for your kind words. It means so much at this time.

Thank you for the advice on the foods to take. I haven't had to travel since my dx

and appreciate all the advice.

I'm so sorry for the loss of your uncle. This is a trying time, with out having to worry about to eat.

My suggestions are:

take a cooler, yogurt, cheese, corn tortillas, lunch meat-you can make a quick roll up sandwich that way

Lara bars

Nut thins

if you have time make a pan of brownies

nuts

That's all I can think of, everyone else had excellent suggestions. I'm just so sorry. I hope you journey is safe.
