Quotes to ponder:

"Hungry athletes (and all people, for that matter) tend to crave sweets (and fats) and can easily eat too many donuts, chocolate chip cookies, candy bars—foods with sugar (for quick energy) and fat (for concentrated calories)."

"To easily and painlessly resolve nutrient-poor snack-attacks, eat before you get too hungry."

"Winning the war against hunger requires white knuckles. Not sustainable and not fun."
