i need to grocery shop badly... plus i need opinions: i'm starting class tonight that is from 7:30-9:55.  the problem is i get outta work at 5, go to the gym till 6, abs class till 6:30, then i have to shower & eat somehow (this is my question) & leave the gym by 7 to make it to class on time.  what/how can i eat??  10 is waaaay too late for me, but 5 is too early & i don't wanna eat a full meal b4 working out!  today i'm gonna try & run back to work (it's next to the gym) after the gym to prepare my dinner & possibly be late to class, but i need ideas!  thanks girls!


b: banana


s: apple sauce


l: leftover risotto stuffed pepper (btw, yesterday l: chicken curry, d: leftover sushi)


s: banana (i know that's like 5 servings of fruit today )

Does the gym have a microwave?  You could bring dinner with you and heat it up.  Otherwise go with a prepacked sandwich and fruit or snack.


B: honey bunches of oats w/strawberries 1/2 cup skim milk and a banana


L: ham and cheese sand pear and apple


D: unsure right now.


Headed to the gym to lift weights and then home to study and walk the neighborhood.

I have the same problem. I don't mind eating dinner late but I get famished so I definitely need something to tide me over, then I eat more at 10 when I get home. I've been making a pb&j or tuna salad on wheat before I leave work and eating it after the gym but before class.

Thanks ladies, those are both excellent ideas!  I don't know why a sandwich never crossed my mind!

W: pilates and maybe some old dance excercises

the other thing i just remembered was that my friend heats up lean pockets in the microwave each morning and wraps them in foil.  When lunch comes around they are at room temp but still tastes good accord. to her.  Could you do that before you left work?

Breakfast:  piece of toast with peanut butter and a banana


about an hour a cup of cafe with vanilla creamer and a teaspoon of sugar


lunch:  asian salad, veggie assortment, gourmet macaroni and cheese, tuna on flat breat and a bday cupcake


snack:  grapes and cottage cheese


dinner:  spaghetti and salad


maybe I'll have a snack after dinner...will probably be up late studying for my midterm tomorrow


workout:  40 min on elliptical (20 min interval training, 20 min just going at it) and lotte berk hip hugger abs tape


crystal:  I totally understand your problem with getting a meal in when you have work and class.  Wednesdays I go to class from 4-10pm and it used to be that I worked beforehand 7am-3:30pm.  I usually would either pack something in the morning that would be my dinner or I would buy something at the cafe located in the building where my class is.  If you don't have somewhere to buy your meal then I would suggest planning ahead and preparing your dinner either the night before or the morning before.
