Tootsie pops and road trips!

At one time or another we have all been on a road trip. At first the excitement of the trip keeps me energized however after several hours in the car this excitement begins to wears off. Here is where the challenge begins for me this week. What will I do during the road trip I am taking to visit my family? What will I choose to munch on?

During previous trips when this boredom sets in I reach for the handy dandy reliable Tootsie Pops. Who can resist the challenge of seeing how many licks it takes to get to the Tootsie Roll center??? Of course one or two of these treats are probably alright except for all of the sugar. The problem is after 14 hours in a car you look and realize you have polished off most of the bag. AAAARG…

So knowing this about myself and the length of the trip ahead of me I am making alternate plans to keep the eating out of boredom away. I will be bringing along some protein snack bars (chocolate coconut my favorite) along with plenty of water and energizing green teas. By making these small changes from one snack to another I hope to be able to sit in the car for hours and not eat a whole bag of Tootsie Pops. Here is to a new kind of road trip.
