Missing a meal or two won't hurt you.

I know. I feel like [censored] today though. Missing meals + not getting
enough sleep + being very physically active with the kids = feeling
really rundown and a bit like I'm coming down with something.

Tell me about it. Usually on the weekends, Fri-Sun, I only have like a
meal, maybe a meal and a snack. Well last Friday I had a protien shake
and went on about my day. My day included 2.5hrs of racquetball w/ the
f-i-law. Come about 5:00 Friday night I felt down right sick!

Not eating is good, except when it is bad.

String cheese and hard boiled eggs are your freinds. ;-)
Or beef jerky.

Things that can be eaten on the run!

Cheers!

Yeah, but see, I'm not psychic. I was told the orientation would be 2
hours, which would have left me enough time to eat, but it went an hour
over. If I carried eggs and cheese around with me all the time "just in
case" then my car would stink worse than it does already.

String cheese "Cheesehead" brand in the individual packages keeps for
DAYS at room temp. ;-)

And jerky keeps even longer.

Just some ideas for ya in case that happens again.

Meh, IME sleep deprivation will make you feel far more run down than
missing meals. :-) Enough sleep is important for a number of reasons.

Yup. I just had an erratic schedule this week. No or little food for a
few days, I can do. No or little sleep for a few days, I can also do.
Both at once, I can also do, but it's highly unpleasant.

As for the butching up, well, I felt awful, but I did all the stuff I
was supposed to do, right? And, I didn't cry. I'd say that was enough
butch.

Almonds and cheese have saved my ass more than a few times on this
diet.

Plus Atkins bars. Have to be honest.

Ew. Sorry. ;-)
I hate Atkins bars....
I try to keep jerky around, but nuts are also an excellent suggestion!

Pumpkin seeds.

They have some new granola bars out that are very good, particularly the

Hmmmmmmm... might have to look at those again then.

How expensive are they compared to others?
Atkins also turned me off due to rip-off pricing.

I bought some Atkins cornbread mix way back when I first started Atkins
in 2003 (I might even have had it since before that), but I never used
it until about a month ago -- it was pretty GOOD! It was much lighter
(less dense) than regular cornbread (more like a fluffy cake), but all
things considered, I was surprised at how much liked it (especially with
lots of butter). I think I added some Sweetzfree to it to sweeten it up
a little more. I'll probably get some more on occasion.

I bought a box of 15 for about $23 at Sam's Club. I was looking for a
replacement for breakfast for my favorite Keto Oatmeal Crunch bars as Keto
went out of business. I eat a half a bar with my coffee in the morning.
The Golden Oats Granola is good, too, though it would be better if it didn't
have a coating on one side, the Peanut Butter ones don't. The coating is
white and not as bad as the chocolate coating on most low carb bars.

Oh, me too Ernie. I try to keep a zip-lok bag of nuts with me at all times,
in my bag or briefcase - almonds and pecans are my favorites. They keep
forever and don't spoil. I also sometimes get those little cheeses that are
about an ounce, encased in wax and plastic - Laughing Cow? They are not
great cheese (IMO), but portable and don't seem to spoil. I have one big
zipper pocket in my briefcase that usually has a ziplock with a couple Wasa
FiberRye crackers, and another with nuts. If I know I might need to eat on
the run, I might add an ounce or two of cheese, or a tin of sardines or (my
very favorite) kipper snacks, in a quart ziploc along with a plastic fork
and a couple folded paper towels, to deal with spills and cleanup. My
portable emergency food kit.

And once in a while I'll get a couple Atkins bars and add them to the kit.
To me they are ok, nothing I'd seek out, but definitely sustaining if I need
something to hold me a couple hours till I can get a proper meal. I like the
Atkins better than any of the competition, but that's not saying much.

Cool. :-)

Now that winter is nearly here and it's cooling off, I want to make
another pot of black soybeans, and make it like chili. Ok I know that
chili with beans in Texas is Sacralige, but hey, I want it that way!
<lol>

I plan to experiment with flour free corn bread made with pulverized
baby corn to _really_ try to make it as low in carbs as possible! I'll
post results if it comes out the way I hope!

Fortunately, I happen to like dense cornbread!

Cheers!
