Atkins suggest never going 6 hours without eating something. (slowed metabolism concept I think, but also letting hunger build/starvation-body may react). Think about rolling up the roast beef and cheese into a finger snack. Tossed in ziploc. Or use a vegetable that you can eat with a dip in a tiny tupperware container (celery and tuna salad). Pork rinds. Sliced Pepperoni & cheddar. Refrigeration can be an issue. I brought my lunch to work and 6 deviled egg halves. I ended up working late (14 hours) and in the evening every 2-3 hours I had another 2 eggs. It let me control my appetite while being stuck working on a computer system for 8 hours straight.

Thursday
I work long hours too, but on a mail route- today it was a snow storm, so my
day lasted 11 hours. I've gotten accustomed to packing my lunch- usually a container of tuna salad, and a baggie of cheese. I keep a Atkins shake in the glove box in case I really need something, but that is rare, A liter of water, but when your out on the road, ther isn't always a bathroom, so, I'm sitting here trying to get my water down. My throat was dried out hours ago. Like you said, you can't always get the break to eat. I knew today was going to be long, so I had a bigger breakfast- you sleep for 8 hours a night, so I really wouldnt fret over the longer work day- just keep prepared. The cheese you don't have to refrigetate and its a quick snack- It takes planning, yesterda y was bagging up a supply to grab and go. Could you manage to pour a drink? If not, then get a snack when able. Your meal plan needs to work with your lifestyle so you can live with it. Keep it up, I'm sure you will figure it out. Diane |
