I've been wondering what everyone does for meals during work. Can't exactly hook up your foreman grill in the office breakroom. I find myself eating some crackers or lean pockets during work as small meals. Any suggestions on improving this??? Taking my situation I eat breakfast around 6 and down my PWO meal soon as i get home around 4. Just curious as to whats appropiate inbetween that time.

Right now I'm lucky because I have a bbq at work, so I cook up everything there. As for snacks if I do crave I might have some peanuts or sunflower seeds. But I try to stay away from all that.

When I didn't have anyting to cook with I would always cook ALL my meals at home a few days in advance, put them in zip lock bags or containers. That way I never had to worry about anything

Hmm good suggestion about cooking meals in advance. I guess being prepared goes a long way.

Only reason im concerned is everything around here is carb loaded and I don't really need that except for breakfast and before and after my workout

i live pretty close to work...so i get to go home for lunch...and eat leftovers...

in between breakfast and lunch i have a ham and cheese sandwich...and peanuts...and milk...

easy to make it the night before...or in the morning...and wrap it up and go.

I always cook a few chicken breasts sunday night, and put it in tupperware. Also I'll buy a shitload of lunch meat and put it on whole wheat bread for a snack.

	TALO's Sig:"But when do you actually grow? Well, we don't grow in the gym. In the gym, we destroy. We tear down the body. We only grow when we are recovering. That's right, I said recovery. I see it all the time--people beating themselves up in the gym and not seeing results. They don't understand that hitting the weights hard is only a small part of growing or even cutting down. I could train the same all year round and get big or get ripped just by eating different and taking different supplements"
