Snacks are Our Friends

I officially feel like I’m back in Ireland and trekking to the store every day. Every. Single. Day. Woof. And I still feel like I have nothing to eat. 

If I end up losing weight from this ordeal there is a very good chance (actually guaranteed) that most of it will probably come from never sitting down and having to prepare food for every waking second I’m not at work. Or researching what to eat. Or grocery shopping. Or blogging to avoid cooking.

Today’s saving grace? Protein energy bites that I slaved over for half of my evening last night. Definitely a nice addition to my sparse diet today. Check them out. Yes, they look like uncooked meat balls, but they are actually very good. Basically, I threw honey, almond butter (unsalted), chia seeds, oats, raw protein powder into my Ninja and let ‘er rip. I may have thrown in a little almond milk to move things along. No, I did not measure out anything. Sorry. I rolled them into balls and threw them in the fridge. They are great ‘space savers’ for my stomach. The only downfall is the massive amount of chia seeds that get stuck in my teeth. Yes, that’s a personal problem but also a disclaimer.

So far, the hardest thing about making it through the day is snacks. I have a nice supply of raw almonds at my desk that are great for snacking on and I bring a few pieces of fruit and/or berries and veggies as well. BUT I feel like they digest so quick!

WANTED:

Seeking suggestions for, 'stomach savers,' also known as protein filled (other than my protein bites) snacks other than fruits or veggies.

Sincerely,

Your Hungry Friend

P.S. I miss cheese.
