I'm a nursing student so I need some tips on high protein snacks on the go. It's hard for me to bring chicken breast or high protein meats to class and clnical. Does anyone have any tips on what to eat on the go to feel full? I am still on soft foods but am tolerating crackers. I have been eating wheat thins to increase my fiber intake, but they aren't too great for protein.

Dannon light and fit greek yogurt with fruit. 12-14 grams Protein and less than 10 grams sugar. The other greek yogurts and too high in sugar

I like the Designer whey Protein 2 Go packets. I keep some in my purse or carry-on bag. They have 10 grams of protein/50 calories. They are designed to pour into a 16 oz Water bottle, but I find I can only tolerate 1/2 strength. I also carry almonds. I'm 3 months post op, so at work I often take a shake bottle with 2 servings of Protein powder. About 10:30, I add water and because I like it weaker, I'll add water every once in awhile. I'm usually done with it about 3pm. Like others have said, I get my protein and my fluids and it's just so convenient under work conditions.

If you can have a little cooler:

I like Fage or Chobani yogurt. I buy the plain and mix with Splenda and frozen fruit. I pack it in the small glad bowls. If you don't have time for this, they also sell it in small containers with fruit on the side.

Light string cheese with a slice or two of lunch meat wrapped around it.

Cottage cheese. Buy a big container and pack your own or the grab and go size.

EAS Carb Control Protein drink in vanilla. 17 grams of protein.

My favorite protein is the powdered Gold Standard Whey in Vanilla. Take a measured scoop of it to work in a blender ball cup with 1 packet of Starbucks via instant decaf. Add Water, shake, and drink. 23 grams of protein.
