Feeling pretty weak and need a pick me up to keep going and get through this day and others like it. Got to be something out there that packs a powerful punch.

I will try oatmeal and wheat toast, and get back to you later.0

For a quick pick me up, you need some good nutrient dense carbs. My apple a day in the afternoon is mine...
For long term, sustained energy, make sure you're getting your protein...0 -

I use So Delicious unsweetened coconut milk. It has 45 cal a cup & the fats are mct so they burn like fuel. When I am dragging I can't eat any carbs, they make me sleepy & give me cravings for things like donuts & cookies all day. So I have 16oz of coconut milk a couple times a day. That comes in at less than 100 cals & really boosts my energy. If I am really dragging I will add a couple cups of Yogi Vanilla Spice Perfect Energy tea to the mix.0
