Bar as a Meal

on May 18, 2009

Another crazy work day in the world of Caitlin!

Mid-afternoon snacks included a crushed TLC bar and yogurt.

Plus grapes:

And for dinner, I ate a Pro Bar… yes, a bar as a meal.

I ate this around 6:30 while working. It held me over for about 2.5 hours, so not as much as a "real" meal worth 400 calories worth of. The Maple Pecan flavor was really great, but I think I liked the Cherry Pretzel more.

By the time I got home at 10:00 PM, I was STARVING!

I ate a glob of Sabra hummus with a few sliced of cucumber.

I’m bushwacked! I’m heading to bed. YAWN!

Heyy congrats on getting through your longg workday! I was just wondering how you manage to squeeze in workouts when you have to work so often!? I’m going to be working ridiculous hours this summer and I’m soo worried that I won’t have time to get to the gym :/

That IS my hummus of choice forever.

Where do you find ProBars? I’ve never seen them anywhere!

healthy on the run – well mon – thursday i work from 7 AM to 5:30 PM at my full time job and then 6:30 PM to 10:00 PM at my other job. i don’t have time (or energy) to go to the gym mon – thursday usually unless something strange happens (like i have the evening off). i do a strength training program in the morning (just 10 minutes) but you could do a longer at home video like the 30 day shred for 20 minutes. i’ve basically a weekend warrior now — i’m squeezing as much exercise as i can into three days. its not ideal but you do what you have to do!

sarah – the probars are samples… i bet you could get them to send you a few!

jess – its from coscto!
