I'd get the plain white, very lightly salted, no butter popcorn and divide it into little snack baggies, then add some almonds, pumpkin seeds and dried cranberries. You'll have these ready made for weeks! High protein, and like the others said, nuts have high fat but the good kind. <br /><br />My doc also said not to eat just to get all your calories in if you are not hungry and that your body thinking it's starving is a myth. I looked it up and alot of docs think that as well.Lollihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10853042237502745334noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3647626831538215917.post-2902804432009416932011-10-27T23:22:46.013-04:002011-10-27T23:22:46.013-04:00Yeah nuts are a good idea.

Something like Atkins would be good, or EAS, which are tasty, a little higher cal, and still have 25 grams of protein! The best options really are solid proteins (obviously it's not a requirement), but not everyone can eat early... so I understand the need for the shake.<br /><br />Also, I like Trisha's idea for nuts, just make sure they're unsalted!Rhondahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02136948771014366470noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3647626831538215917.post-24484375687857892562011-10-25T00:34:32.398-04:002011-10-25T00:34:32.398-04:00add some nuts! cashews, almonds, even regular pean...add some nuts! cashews, almonds, even regular peanuts. they're high in fat, but i only eat about 15 pieces (half pieces of peanut) at a time. good snacks. quick protein. <br /><br />also - try adding some greek yogurt with some granola and fruit. Yo Crunch brand is my favorite, some others are Fage and Otheos. You can add some fresh blueberries to plain greek yogurt with a tablespoon or two of granola.<br /><br />do you use My Fitness Pal? If not I highly suggest it! :)trishajohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01624986844629181388noreply@blogger.com
