Snacks at Work (Read 850 times)

Pretzels, especially the unsalted ones. I always have a bag around and just snack on that. Hits the spot mostly! Or those 90 cal quaker granola bars are pretty good, although not too filling.

Do you have a fridge? I eat strawberries, or I buy cutup fruit like pinneapple. I might have a piece of laughing cow cheese with it. I always crave sugar in the afternoon but fruit does the trick and way less calories.

Can you bring bananas and apples? Fruit, especially bananas, give energy that lasts a long time.. and of course it's good for you. Granola bars aren't that much better than eating chocolate bars. A handful of almonds is also great, as long as you don't go crazy and eat cups and cups of it. If you must bring a packaged granola bar, Nutrigrain bars are pretty good.

I keep a ton a ton of food here at work. My personal favorite is a 12 pak box of fig Newtons. Right now I have 2 apples, 1 Bananna, A large ziplock bag of Homemade granola, a couple of Cliff Bars, 3 varities of Tea, A multi pac of peanut butter crakers and in the fidge in the kitchenette i have a couple of yougurts and some V8 juice. I highly recommend the Fig Newton Bars. Filling, fantastic energy source with out over doing the calories. I'd skip the "Bars" especially if they are meal replacement bars. Far to many calories. Set eating times and know what your going to eat. eg.; I have a good breakfast at home. 9:45 I have a fig newton and maybe some crackers. 12:00 is Lunch.....then 3:00 I have fruit. Times vary because of the demands of my job. Bugs mentioned pineapple.......If your bad at eating fruits, try canned pineapple. The granola is a good alt too. I make mine with lots of nuts and pumpkin seeds. It also forces you to drink more liquids.

Raw vegatables?

I love fruit - esp apples and bananas, and if they are not filling enough you could add peanut butter. I also love string cheese.
