I hate to be hungry for a long period. Who does? If you know me well, you can attest that I’m a nibbler. I’m like a traveling pantry. I’m not leaving home without some form of filling bites to munch on. This move enables me from indulging in the wrong type of foods.
Sometimes, I do feel like a squirrel. They are always seeking out and nibbling on bits. Come to think of it, eh, they often try to be in my proximity. They and those birds are quite smart. They see me reach for those nuts and I’m happy to share a few with them.
But anyway guys, I stave off those hungry pangs by packing in small zip lock bags:
- dried fruits and nuts (unsalted)
- ripe banana or any fruit
- apple along with a dollop of peanut butter
- water
These types of healthy and filling foods aid me to keep my blood sugar in check because they keep me satiated for hours until to get to a substantial meal. Moreover, they save me a few dollars because I try to prep them in advance. I do this by purchasing bigger quantities like nuts and pack same in baggies.
I never leave home without ‘good old’ water. A few sips, provides me with the hydration I need throughout the day while I’m away from home. The potassium-rich banana is also very filling. I can never give up my fiber-rich apple bites. Sometimes, I pair same with a dollop of peanut butter.
No one should go hungry. A few of these food moves keep me in check and make me a happy camper.
