I have posted here in the past and mentioned my horrible eating
habits, which is a combination of:
1. Being on the road for work from Mon - Friday (so I cannot cook
those days)
2. And to be honest, steak, hamburgers, etc just taste better (in my
opinion) than salads or fish.

But I decided to TRY to eat a little better.
When I travel, breakfast is either at the hotel or at the company
cafeteria.
Lunch is usually at the company cafeteria (your typical corporate
cafe), dinner is usually a chain restaurant with coworkers.

Here is an example of my meals this week.
Mon:
Breakfast - had to catch a 6am flight, so ate some hashbrowns and OJ
at the airport.
Lunch - Hamburger at cafeteria
Dinner - TGI Fridays - Jack Daniels chicken with mashed potatoes and
broccoli

Tues:
Breakfast - bagel with peanut butter and some pineapples (from hotel)
Lunch - Cheese steak from company cafe
Dinner - Applebees - Chicken and Broccoli pasta alfredo

Wed:
Breakfast - bagel with peanut butter and a yogurt (hotel)
Lunch - Cheese burger
Dinner - Outback Steakhouse - Drovers platter (chicken and ribs)

Thurs:
Breakfast - Cheese omelet from company cafe and tator tots
Lunch - Pizza
Dinner - iHop - Scrambled eggs and corned beef hash

Fri:
Breakfast - yep, bagel with peanut butter
Lunch - Chipotle Mexican Grill - Tacos
Dinner - Sweet and sour chicken from a Chinese takeout place
(airport)

First off, how are my meals? Horrible?

For those of you familiar with the places I ate at, what are some good
alternatives from the menu?
You can probably tell my food tastes by my meals this week, so I am
not sure if there are healthy alternatives that are similiar to what I
eat.

Thanks

Do you _need_ to eat better? Are you trying to lose weight, lower
cholesterol, or something along those lines? What you posted is
probably half what many SHW PL'ers eat but twice as much as I do. A bit
more information would help here.
