Beat me to the punch here. I agree that Larabars taste good and have a better natural ingredient composition than most granola/health/snack bars on the market, but I prefer them when I'm on the go and need a quick dose of carbs (and for whatever reason a fruit or decent carb source is not available).

@divcara As promised, I'll weigh in on the Oh Yeah! chocolate birthday cake protein bar-- Let me first express how high I had set the bar for this one.

But on to what I pulled your quote out for--if you like the occasional fancy coffee…

Keeping a good eating plan gets about 10283% harder when you're on the road, so I feel your pain. You're definitely on the right track trying to get hotel rooms with a fridge. I guess my question is are you flying mostly or driving? If you're driving, you might benefit from getting one of those fancy meal prep bags…

Let me preface that I'm no expert as I'm also catching the protein bar wave, but here's what I've learned so far: 1) I shoot for a 12 hour nightly fast (usually 8:30p-8:30a) to help give my digestive system a break. I can typically eat one near the close of the feeding period before bed around 10:30 and go to bed feeling…
