Snacks That Don’t Sabotage You
Snacks were my downfall. I’d buy “healthy” protein bars. First ingredient: brown rice syrup. That’s just sugar wearing a gym outfit. Then there were the “lightly sweetened” almonds that spiked my blood sugar more than actual candy. These snacks are what I keep in my bag now. Sweet, salty, crunchy. Zero guilt. Zero glucose drama. Your 4pm self will thank you.
