At home, you just grab whatever is lying around or in the fridge, but when you\u2019re constantly on the go\u2026you HAVE to pack snacks. Or else, if you\u2019re like me, you find a little spot on the sidewalk and lie down because you have no strength to carry on.<\/p>\n<p>You\u2019ve probably gathered by now\u2026I don\u2019t like to <!--more-->be hungry. Actually, I hate it.<\/p>\n<p>Last semester I was in the habit of throwing bars in my bag to save me from impromptu sidewalk faints, but a lot of those bars were actually high in sugar. This year, I\u2019m intent on keeping things low glycemic and my blood sugar levels stable.<\/p>\n<p>So I compiled a list of some delicious snacks that are perfect for throwing in your bag that are not only low sugar, but very low carb. Enjoy!<\/p>\n<p>1. Cucumbers with 1 piece of cheese<br \/>\n2. 20 almonds with greek yogurt<br \/>\n3.
