I work in construction and am on the move all day long. I need help with a diet to lose weight. What can I eat on the go and when to eat it?

Currently I weigh 260 and have been adding weight steadly. I want to preserve my muscle while losing fat. Any help is appreciated.
 
my diet now is very inconsistant. I want to create a structured plan that I can stick with. I was 320 pounds in 2007 and got down to 190. I did a lot of bulking and then recently got lazy with it. I have been slowly getting fat again.

I came up with a sample. how does it look?

Breakfast; 3 egg whites 2 whole eggs cup of spinach
Snack one; Can turkey chili
Lunch; sandwich and apple
Snack two; tuna and oats
After gym ; protein shake and oats
Dinner; chicken and veggies
Before bed cottage cheese and fruit

Thanks for your help.

You could make a lot of food when you are off of work, like chicken, potatoes and a green vegetable, and then put the extra in containers for the next day or two at work. I do this all the time and it makes it a lot easier to eat quality meals on the go and avoid eating packaged or fast food all the time. The diet you posted looks decent to me though, maybe just keep the carbs to breakfast, pre-workout, and post-workout and see how your body responds to it.
 
thats good info guys. I came up with another plan let me know.

Breakfast; 2 eggs 6 whites half cup dry oats with sugar free jam
Snack one; tuna and cup oats
Lunch; sandwich, wheat, miracle whip, mustard, 8 ounces turkey, cheddar cheese, cup broccoli
Snack two; chicken breast or protein shake and cup oats and apple
After gym; protein shake fast sugar like juice or Gatorade or bagel
Dinner; lean meat and veggies
Before bed; cottage cheese with mixed fruit

THis is just me but if its not Ezekial bread dont eat it.. ALso loose the mayo and processed deli meats.. Also the cottage cheese and fruit before bed, why?? Maybe some eggs fried in coconut oil instead.. But again thats just me.. Also for breakfast your getting maybe 30g of protien.. If i were you i would eat some more eggs...
 
thats why I/m asking. My buddy who competes is giving me advice. I see it works for him, but I need to see what works for me. So more eggs and no cottage cheese? I thought cottage cheese was good before bed? Fruit is just to help get it down I think.
Thanks guys...
