I bring a bunch of the granola bars to use between meals and usually eat only half of the catering so with this I have started to burn off the weight gain after starting the job.
 
I just order a pizza each night to fulfill my nutritional requirements (it's true just ask Guitar Guy). Be sure to wash it down with lots of vitamin Beer. I'll diet when i'm dead.

I will attest to that. I think Twotter76 knows the phone numbers to pizza joints that deliver in all 50 states and Canada, too.
 
I'll be curious to see how you guys like Nutrisystem food. A lot of blogs on the web say it tastes absolutely horrible, thus the weight loss!

I have actually lost weight since I started at the airlines. Its not because of my crap pay either at my regional airline. I bring crackers, trail mix, fruit, couple cans of slim fast, bags of tuna. I like doing 2 day trips because I can pack for day one, then day two I can eat dinner at home. I refuse to eat fast food or most of that junk at the airport.

Concur. The best thing that's happened to me professionally is being able to hold day trips. There are several reasons for that, but easily avoiding airport food is near the top of the list.
 
At Mesa, we are taught to stun a pidgeon with our flight cases and cook it on our travel iron.

I know I'm going to be the spoilsport here, but here it goes:

Eat whatever the hell you want, but use the dang fitness center in the hotel!

Kung-Pao shrimp at PF Changs, a steak at the Outback or a big-ass Quizno's sub can all be fixed by a trip to the gym. Bonus: you feel good and have more energy for the day!

Blasphemy, I know. But I'd rather do beer, steaks and a workout than carry Nutrisystem crap with me.

Or you could do both - eat your home-packed tuna while doing pushups in your room. Soon you too can be ready for FIGHT CLUB!
