I am headed to NYC this week and I am looking for a couple Snacks I can take with me. I am going with my mom and sister and they will likely just eat two meals a day. I get full SO fast (at each setting) that I need to snack to get any real Protein in.

So I am thinking of bringing string cheese, pistachios, almonds, beef jerky...

Any other ideas? I am not concerned about fat or carbs.

Thanks guys!!

Granola bars, and pork rinds are always on my roadtrip list ! ! ! Hope you have a blast.

I recently started a thread called looking for snacks and people gave me a lot of great portable ideas, one of them was the 100 calorie packs of cocoa-dusted almonds. Take protein shots too so you don't short yourself on protein!

Where do you get the protein shots, and what kind do you use?

I get mine in the PX - I live/work on a military installation. The soldiers love their protein powders, shakes, pills, etc!! I use Body Fortress Super Whey Shot - 26g's of protein, 110 cals. They taste horrible but at only 2.9 fluid ounces it is easier to down that then to slowly sip an equally horrible protein shake. You can also get protein shots online at drugstore.com, amazon.com, gnc.com, and I'm sure others. I've noticed that on days where this is the first thing I have in the morning, I have great energy all day and low interest in food.
