Each can had 1030mg sodium which is almost a full daily intake! Water weight adds up quick lol. Hit the sauna today and got it all out. Won't be taking soups again.

All these listings are missing fruits, veggies, and protein sources... Carbs are not good to live off of.... And yes water weight is not the best but being hydrated is important. The first time I went through 2 of the 1.5L bottles in a day I felt blah.. Then once my body got used to it I pee clear and feel awesome. Your body is more water than anything else- feed the body!

I've been experimenting around with foods lately. My trainer and I were talking about calorie intake etc so I said I'd do a little test with my last four day. I took only soups. Each was 200 cal per serving or 400 cal per can. I kept my average calorie intake around 1600-2000 calories a day. I exercised heavily one of the days where I burned about 1000 calories. When I got back I had gained 4lbs Each can had 1030mg sodium which is almost a full daily intake! Water weight adds up quick lol. Hit the sauna today and got it all out. Won't be taking soups again.

usually carrots/vegetables, almonds, dried fruit (i do a lot of transborder flying, can't bring fresh fruit/meat into canada), and a few slimfast shakes. slimfasts work rather well, they fill you up pretty quickly if you can't get to real food or want to avoid airport food.
Did you teach at FSH?

Just got back today. Great suggestions. Well I spent about 30$ eating Subway and McDonalds. It worked but not the most healthy. I have been doing that for the last year now. I liked usmc-sgt. idea. Although that would require my wife to cook. I might need to buy one of them mini coolers that clip on to my bag. I also bought some cookies out of the vending machine at the hotel and they were great for a 3 hour flight. I liked the frozen burrito idea too. I would think that would go bad by the third day though.
