#National7-11Day

Today is #National7-11Day!! What does that mean? Free small slushees at MOST locations between 11am and 7pm (get it?)! I’m 100% in favor of treat-yo-self, make sure its with something that doesn’t become the beginning of a bad habit. 7-11 is full of eye catching goodies that can quickly through your goals for a loop. But what happens when you are in the middle of no where you are hungry and there are only gas stations? What do you get? outside of water, my go to is coffee (careful with all the additives,,,make sure you get a little sweetener with your coffee and not a little coffee with your sweetener). Next check out the fruits…most of the time they are by the checkout counter or the coffees. If there are no fruits or they look days old (I have seen that), my next best suggestion would be a Quest Bar or a Larabar. Just make sure you check out my NUTRITION BAR post before making a decision. My last go to is plantain chips. I’m seeing this in more and more grocery stores. When made fresh these things are amazing…especially dipped in guac…check out how to do that in THIS POST or you can even make PLANTAIN PROTEIN PANCAKES…I have digressed…come full circle when stopping at a gas station check out these items before googling the closest grocery store:
