bring along some apples. here at school, i usually buy 5-6 apples to eat for lunch during the week. they don't go bad in that short period of time, are quite filling, are good for you, and they help give you strong and healthy teeth and gums! heh heh, i sound like a dentist.
 
met-rx etc

Met-rx or myoplex is pretty good for a meal replacement shake.
You can get at any gnc or health food store.
GNC has these shakers for like 5 bucks that work great, they have an agitator that really helps mix it up.
Really cold water or milk and you are good to go.
Lots of protein to keep you from getting hungry and good long term energy.
These have really worked for ocean crossings where you are stuck strapped in an ejection seat for 10 hrs.
 
I used to make Peanut Butter and Jelly before a trip. I found it to take a lot of time and the bread would get soggy with jelly. You can imagine my excitement when I found squeezable peanut butter and jelly. Now just bring slices of bread and then make the sandwiches when I'm hungry.

Oatmeal is good. Especially with an early show and no breakfast at the hotel. Get the hot water from the coffee maker.

Beef Jerky.
Left over pizza. Put it in the crew room fridge.

SO IS BEER. Have you ever considered the nutrition value in one 12/oz longneck?
 
Some say Guinness is a meal. ;)
 
I can say that Ensure or slimfast as a meal is a great way to go... NOT to lose weight but to get a quick and painless meal. I have used both during marathon training and training for a 24hr mountain bike race. It should not replace a meal, but will hold you until you can unwrap a Clif bar/snickers. MMMM snickers. Tuna in the pouch thing is also great.. Pack it in your mouth like a chaw of Redman and forget about the hunger....

Guiness is a great meal, sandwich in every bottle!

MMM, beeeeer

adios

Little packets of oatmeal (hot water from the hotel coffeemaker)
Jerky
Nutrition Bars (Cliff, etc..)
Apples (don't spoil or make a mess like some fruit)
Peanuts (F/A's tell me these can hold you for a long time)
Bottled water by the case
Soup and Sandwiches at the airport (deli, subway)

And rent "Supersize Me". You'll never eat fast food again.

Here's my story for today.

Okay...so I had a bad day today.

I still made it in under my calories, but here's how it worked out.

Breakfast: Burger King
Sausage, Egg & Cheese Croissanwich
Cini-Mini
Coffee

Lunch: Wendys
Jr. Bacon Cheeseburger
Biggie Fries
Biggie Diet Coke

Dinner: Taco Bell
Steak Quesadilla
Taco Supreme
Large Diet Pepsi

I watched the movie tonight after dinner and I want to go vomit everything up that I just ate.

Seriously, I will not eat fast food now....I can't....I'll die by the end of next week if I keep it up!
