    I got it!

    I got the job that I interviewed for on Thursday! WOO HOOO.. Of course first thing I asked was??? Do you have a microwave???..lol Told her I was on a special diet and needed to heat things up....

    I will be working at a campground part time like 25 to 30 hours a week.. not real high paying but it will give me the office training that I needed and it seems like its a nice place to work....

    I start Monday...Oh lord what am I going to wear and pack to eat!

      Here you go! I posted this in February.

      Atkins Diet Bulletin Board
      http://www.atkinsdietbulletinboard.com/forums/main-atkins-diet-forum/70620-portable-snack-ideas.html


      If I didn't go to work prepared, I'd never make it through one day without staring down the vending machine. You have to have your legal stuff on hand for when someone brings in the box of donuts or cookies or pizza...you know what I mean! I don't remember if it was in the thread but nearly every work day, I eat one can of tuna with mayo. High in protein and fat and it keeps me full! Can't beat that for a dollar!!

                          Way to go Sandy!!!!! And great job pre-cooking for the week! Since you'll have access to a microwave at work you should have any trouble with lunches because just about anything you could eat at home you can eat at work.

                          I was an Executive Secretary for 27 years and loved it!! Enjoy.
