LOW CARB / Sugar & good amount of Protein!

EthanJeremiahsMama

HI MFP! Does anyone have any reccomended good "on the go" snacks that are low in carbs with a good amount of protein? Oh and also low in sugar? I plan on going to the grocery store today.. or even Trader Joes possibly to stock up on a few snacks. I'll be going to NY for about 4 days and I always eat like crazy when i'm there so I wanted to bring snacks with me hah Thanks for any responses!

i've got these protein bars. there called Detour, low sugar, whey protein bar, chocolate chip caramel. 150 cal, 17carbs, 3g sugar and 15g protein. i've been eating them for a week and they are alright a little funny flavor the first few times.

most of the Atkins carb conscious protein bars are low carb/low sugar as well.

String cheese is a great snack, especially the low fat. And it keeps ok in your purse for awhile without refrigeration. A week, no, a couple hours, sure.

Almonds are also a great portable high protien snack.

I carry almonds, carrots, cheese and pepperoni sticks as snacks (the pepperoni is locally made so I know not only the people making it but what is going into it, it's a bit healthier that way).

Depending on your "Low Carb" veggies are allowed (that's why I have the carrots) but the tropical/high GI carbs are restricted (most fruits)

Feel free to check out my diary. I've been sticking to a lower carb / sugar (and sodium) diet since finding out I have PCOS earlier this summer. Most of my snacks (unless it's an off day, which you can clearly identify) fall into all of these categories

I agree with this. I buy sargento light mozzarella sticks and they are only 50 calories each and 6g protein I beleive. I also buy the Emerald nut 100 calorie packs.
