I had an appointment today to get my haircut at 10:15. (I just got a trim, no big deal) I left the office around 9:45 still full from breakfast, so absentmindedly I left my midmorning snack at my desk. BIG MISTAKE.
Flash forward to halfway through the cut when my stomach is very loudly growling and I am casually checking my watch every five seconds. I sat very patiently while the nice girl finished, but I could feel my blood sugar dropping and the hangry girl inside of me coming out. I felt so rude rushing out of the salon with barely a smile and a thank you, but I needed to eat!
Whole Foods was on my way back to work so I ran in and got some Hot Bar food to go.
I filled my container with a few hot selections, but the bulk of the container was a nice spinach salad with fresh veggies.
I grabbed one of my favorite Moroccan Mint Green Honest Tea as well.
As you can see I was STARVING and wiped the container clean with my pita wedge.
The 1.14 lbs of food was gone in less then 10 minutes and I still feel hungry. I just popped in a piece of gum and am chugging some water in hopes that my stomach will catch up with my head before I start snacking the afternoon away.

That salad looks SO GOOD. I like I want it, good.
Salad looks AWESOME! gotta love Whole Foods
I love whole foods salad bar! I would go every day if my bank account allowed
The classes at HealthWorks sound awesome! I wish I lived near one!
I haven’t had a Whole Foods salad bar in forever! I used to eat it a lot, but it got too expensive.
I can’t wait to try the Whole Foods hot bar when I move, after hearing/seeing all these delish descriptions of it!
A question about that, how much does it cost per oz or per pound?
a mistake we all have made and regretted every minute of! i sometimes keep larabars in my purse, u know, just in case!

i just got my first WF salad bar box in YEARS – soooo good!!!
That tea sounds so good! I have never seen that flavor and will have to look for it when I’m out!
i also get very moody when i don’t eat in time
i’m glad you understand; nobody i know does!! 
mmmm WFs bar! I am planning on having that for dinner one night next week! Looks fantastic. How’d the trim turn out? Love getting my hair done
Hope you have a good night Meghann!
Mmm, a true boxed lunch! I’m glad I’m not the only one who can throw back lunch in ten minutes…
I can’t believe you were able to wait until you got to your desk to eat!
MMMM whole foods – now I’m craving it!
No I’m not attending
I’m so sad about it 
I almost forgot the never go food shopping hungry rule and almost went to the health food store without eating lunch first!! Luckily, I rethought my decision last minute and had lunch. I would have eaten the whole store!!
I love Honest Tea!!! And Whole Foods!
Good call on the muffins this morning! They look so delicious! I need to stop reading food blogs while I am on this parasite cleanse…it’s rough! haha
I FEEL YOUR PAIN. I stayed the night with my friend and ended up spending the next day with her, and I was so so so so so so upset that that crazy woman doesn’t eat! She also happened to do all the driving that day – I begged her for breakfast, a pathetic packet of oatmeal, and didn’t have dinner for almost 9 hours. I WAS ABOUT TO KILL. I am not sure I want to hang out with her again.
That tea looks really good. I might need to try that next time I’m at WF!
Whole Foods FTW! I usually eat about 3 pounds!
