“Great lunch! Youve done a great job incorporating both protein and fiber into your meal. The eggs provide a great source of lean protein which will help keep you full until your next meal. The rolled oat nut butter balls are a great source of fiber which also aids in keeping you satisfied. Remember to drink plenty of water to stay hydrated and aid digestion”
