Q: mike, i made some protein bars to eat at school

i eat breakfast at 6 30, and lunch is at 10 45.

my question is, each bar has 27g of protein, and 22g of carbs. should i cut them in half, and have one inbetween breakfast and lunch, and one inbetween lunch and home, or just one full one inbetween breakfast and lunch? which would be like 13.5g of protein inbetween meals . i dont want to eat 2 full ones, because i will be draining my whey protein supplies way to fast.

A: Assuming you don't get to eat till 3pm in the afternoon after school, I would probably recommend eating two full protein bars: one before lunch and one after. To save on your whey powder, just put less of it when you make the bar, even use just half the current amount. You won't get as much protein per bar, but at least you'll still get calories from carbs (hopefully healthy carbs) to keep your metabolism high.
