Great ideas! I like to buy the Quaker take heart oatmeal I love the blueberry and golden maple. I like my oatmeal a little sweeter so I add two packets of nutra sweet to it.
Fruit is always a good thing to snack on! I like to keep at my desk to canned fruit that is in light syrup for emergencies. Oh and 98% fat free popcorn! That will fill you up! If you don't have a microwave at work you can pop it the night before and just put it in a ziploc!
forgot about oatmeal - I think I could manage to make that at work - either with hot water from the water cooler or in the microwave - at that stuff is definitely filling. Maybe I'll grab a small jar of pb and add a tsp of that too plain oatmeal-yummy. I'm never hungry before I get to work so I don't eat until 7:30/8 instead of 6am when I'm still at home. That limits me a bit on what I can make - no toast, cereal (unless I buy the milk daily) or anything requiring some kitchen prep.
My major snack time at work is 2-6. I'm tired and ready to go home at that point. I've got some granola bars but its so easy to run to the vending machine or the little shop downstairs and get something unhealthy. Maybe I need to pick up some 100 cal packs again since I can eat them one piece at a time and stretch it out. There's also a trader joe's nearby and they sell bags of presliced apples with 3 servings in a bag/60 cals each. Its a few dollars and then i don't have to do any prep, plus its fruit rather than some processed snack.
Hmm, I think a trader joe's run is on the agenda for this afternoon - I could get apples, oatmeal and maybe even the pb (unless its all that natural stuff I don't really care for).
