One of the things that I've found hard about living out here is eating enough food, especially protein. You just don't tend to eat big hunks of meat as often as you might in the states. When I first came out here, I lost about thirty pounds within two months (I was a little chubby) just because of the change of diet. And, while being skinny is great, I still need more calories and protein if I want to be able to work out and actually have energy afterwards, and so I have invented SNICKERMEAL.
To create SNICKERMEAL, you will need:
A big bowl of oatmeal
A silly amount of peanut butter
One handful of almonds
Two bananas
One scoop of protein powder
A few tablespoons of sugar
A big chopped up snickers bar.*
Put all of those things together. Eat it. It's over 1000 calories of awesome.
*If you have access to both American and Chinese Snickers bar, you should use a Chinese one. They're not as tasty, so you should save the better flavored American snickers for eating on its own afterwards.
Glad you are back. With Pictures! Looks ... filling. Enjoy.
ReplyDeleteYay! Glad to see you posting! Ummm,I'm feeling fortunate that I don't need to go on a protein hunt!
ReplyDeleteWow, that's...that's...incredible.
ReplyDeleteIdea! The next step for the Snicker Meal should be the Snicker Bowl, featuring some foolish sporting event you inflict on your friends. (And, like Thermonuclear War, there'll be only one way to win.)
