I'm HANGRY and I know it!

Anyone else out there feel themselves on edge every now and then due to hunger? I know I sure do! Mine usually occurs mid afternoon around 4pm. That's my natural "slump time" and unless I have a snack on hand to curb my mood a bit I'm totally not myself! Am I alone here? How do you ward of the HANGRY?

I always grab a piece of fruit mid-afternoon. Apples especially but whatever you like. Maybe you low-carbers might not like that idea but it works for me every time. Then I can prep my dinner without spazzing out!

Yes! And this is the after school mad-time with all the kids' activities. My poor cherubs probably bear the brunt more often than they should (although would it kill them to just listen to me once in a while?! )

I've started packing myself snacks along with theirs when we have places to get to, or joining them for a small after school snack.
And making sure I drink plenty - I tend to drink more in the morning, but trying to increase the afternoon water intake. Off to fill my water bottle now...
