It's 11:30 a.m. You're in an important meeting. Your stomach growls so loud that the speaker pauses to see just where that noise came from.

You feel like crawling under the table.

You're trying to concentrate, but you feel weak. Unable to keep your mind on your work. You're antsy. All you can think about is lunch.

Everyone piles down to the restaurant. You are so starving, you order the bacon cheeseburger with fries. And they have this great white chocolate cheesecake. Gotta try that!

Back to the meetings. An hour later, you can barely hold your eyes open.

Have you had too many days like that?

Here's a great formula for getting through the marathon days in top shape-

The night before a big day, eat -

* Spaghetti with tomato sauce

* Tossed salad

* Bread

* Lots of fluids (preferably water)

* And get enough sleep.

For breakfast, eat-

* Cereal with 2% milk

* Banana

* Low Fat Yogurt

* Juice

If possible, grab some fruit or a power bar to eat during the morning break. Drink water throughout the day.

You'll be fine until lunch, and beyond.

At lunch, top choice is turkey and cheese on wheat and some fruit. If that's not available, have a salad with chicken and cheese, like a cobb salad, or a chicken ceasar salad, and a piece of bread. Drink lots of water. At least one glass every 2 hours.

You'll run circles around the rest of them!

Yes, I hear all you "no carb" people screaming. Carbs are energy. If you have high energy requirements, you must have carbs. We all need carbs. You just have to be smart about the carbs you eat, and when you eat them. You can learn more about it when you read "I've Got a Thin Attitude."

Besides, Atkins died, allegedly from the side effects of his own diet.
