Can you help me "meal plan?"

[spaghetticat]

I don't know what else to call it. I have a new schedule this year, and I am at a loss for when/what to eat. I used to eat a granola bar on the way to work and then have a yogurt before the students got there, around 7:30. Well, at the moment, yogurt doesn't sound appealing and the problem is, my lunch is now at 9:45. We aren't allowed to have food in the classroom at any other time. The next time I can eat is 2 or 2:30. So I need to eat something before class, and then something (breakfast 2?) at 9:45. I don't want to gain 500lbs. by eating three meals, but I don't want to barf from not eating. 

I'm sorry this is a wipe my ass post, but I am burnt out. Any bright ideas?

Your lunch is stupid. 9:45 is just dumb! I would fight the man and have a snack toward the end of the day. Who eats lunch that early?!??

Will you have access to a microwave?

Also are you more of a sweets kinda gal or a savory/salty?

I know, right?? Stupid new schedule. 

lauranicole91, I do have access to a microwave, and I like sweet, but I would be up for anything.

Does oatmeal sound appetizing? They make single serve microwaveable bowls for on the go. Also a good breakfast-y type food that gets me through for a while is a couple waffles or bagel with peanut butter on it. Keeps me full longer than cereal or a nutrigrain bar.

For a more savory breakfast food I really like the smart ones breakfast rolls. They come in sausage and I think maybe ham or bacon. Along with eggs and cheese and peppers. They also make pretty decent breakfast sandwiches too.

I was also going to suggest oatmeal. Add nuts, apples/fruit, raisins/craisins and make it with milk rather than water so it will be more filling. What about egg salad or chicken salad. I also think rolled up lunch meat with cheese is good but not sure if you are eating lunch meats while pg

And I could eat PB&j all day every day. 

I wish there was a way for you to get your lunch changed, even by an hour. 9:45 is ridiculous.

Thanks, guys. I am going to give your suggestions a try and see if I can stay full!

I think at 945 I'd eat a breakfast burrito (make ahead and freeze or buy the delicious TJs ones) or steel cut oats (also available frozen at TJs)

Then I'd bring a snack/lunch for afterschool.
