    I like to think of having snacks handy as kind of a nutrition 911. That way if you need something you don't have to worry about finding a place to buy snacks.
    I'm actually recovering from knee surgery and my husband made me a snack box to have by my bed for the first week so I could have easy access to food, in case he couldn't step away from his home office. We prioritized protein to help with healing but also had some soul nourishing choices for self care. 😊

    Power Crunch bars!!! They aren't as high in protein as I'd like, but they have fiber and protein! They're good when paired with something a little more rich. The lemon meringue are a super light snack!

      You want that IBS to go away for good? Eat clean keto or carnivore. You will no longer have IBS. IBS can be caused by many things but the majority of the time it’s caused by high carbohydrates and bad oils. If you’re fighting heartburn that will also go away.

    I'm always disappointed when I try the One bars. The image on the box draws me in, but then it tastes nothing like the flavor. It should be obvious there aren't hot fudge sundaes in the wrapper, but I always feel duped! For lighter ones, I love the Nugo Slims!
    Have a great trip!

    i had a relapse of my eating disorder at the start of the year, and for the past 3 weeks i’ve been trying to take back ownership of my body and food by learning more about intuitive eating. There have been lots of tears and a few panic attacks, but yesterday I had a full day of eating and listening to my body. It was the first time in over 6 months I went to bed not anxious about the food choices I made and feeling satisfied in my body. This morning I also had breakfast for the first time in 2 years and I feel great and am excited to eat food again.

    I'll be traveling soon and always feel super barfy on airplanes. Recently when I was sick I tried what is similar to the american brand ensure and it was super useful, would something like that make a good travel snack as like a backup? It would be allowed as a liquids exception from what I read. It is just a little 200ml bottle and has about 300 calories, 10g protein, vitamins and stuff. It is meant for people who have a hard time getting enough nutrients from food as like a little extra boost of stuff from my understanding.

    • @ColleenChristensen
      @ColleenChristensen  Před 7 měsíci

      I would equate that to a protein shake. Sounds like a good snack to me! Choosing something that is easy on your tummy but also gives you nourishment when you know you need it... enough to tide you over until the plane lands is a good choice!

    So, I just dont buy the protein bars. They are expensive and I just dont like that they dont taste like food. Some of the brands are not regulated by the FDA. So you may or nay not be getting what the wrapper says... I prefer to eat dried druit and nuts on a plane/.or even homamade granola. But yes definitely love the bring a snack idea. No reason to be hangry in an already intense situation lol❤ thannjss for your content!!!!

    Anyone have any tips for protein sources for people with nut allergies? So many protein bars either have nuts in them or are processed with nuts. Also peanut butter/almond butters and plain nuts are a no go for me.

    • @ColleenChristensen
      @ColleenChristensen  Před 6 měsíci

      You may have to do a little research, but there are some protein bars and granola bars out there that are nut free. Also, beef jerky / sticks, cheese sticks, and roasted garbanzo beans are some good options too!

    OMG, I can't STAND plain water, it sits in my stomach like a rock for some reason! Even flavored water isn't really enjoyable for me, but at least I can get it down easier. I do keep a huge bottle of water (64 oz bottle from Hydracy) by my bed to take medicine and when I wake up just parched and will drink anything I'm so thirsty, and I keep another one at my desk, but I much prefer my tea (yes, with a ton of sugar) and milk, maybe some watered down Gatorade on occasion.

    Another thing to be mindful of with being on an airplane is other passengers. I'd probably steer away from snacks with peanuts/tree nuts in case of allergies (or at least have other options just in case), and I probably wouldn't pack anything super smelly like tuna pouches. Again, just out of respect for others.
    Um...I know your whole thing is "no food rules" but some food rules are ok lol. [Side-note, you can get those freezable lunchbags if you're packing food to take onto an airplane and want some more options for keeping food fresh a bit longer. Or even just a small, collapsible insulated bag will help even if you don't add in an ice pack or something. I've also made my own ice packs by buying Ziptop bags (I like the quart sized ones) and then filling them with free ice from Starbucks if you're worried about getting through security with an ice pack],
    I think my favorite place to go for snacks is Trader Joe's.

    Side note tho my mom loves those Chomps things!
    If I had to pick a favorite travel snack it’d be the Wilde protein chicken chips they’re amazing if you like chicken/can’t have other kinds of protein like me.
    I also love sour patch kids tbh lol
