Thank you to LUNA Protein for providing me a LUNA Protein sample pack to review. The opinions I’ve expressed here are solely my own and represent my honest viewpoint.

I am a mom.

I am a blogger.

I am a wife.

I’m fighting middle-age as hard as I can, by exercising regularly and watching what I eat.

But there are times when the first three responsibilities make my last responsibility really, really hard.

Between running two kids to and from school (I’m there three times a day because I pick up my youngest from half-day kindergarten), writing on the blog, working out, taking care of housework, planning family activities and meals, and getting kiddos to extra cirriculuar activities – there are days when I forget to each breakfast or lunch.

And I have found that when I forget to eat, the smallest thing can set me right into a bag of Doritos or box of Wheat Thins and cheddar cheese slices. And as I comfort myself with food, I watch my hard earned workout go down the drain.

I’ve learned (through many trials and ERRORs) that I have to keep something in my tummy all day long or I end up like one of the characters out of a Snickers commercials, complete with Snicker bar in hand.

My usual go-to snack is a CLIF bar. But sometimes I don’t need or want that many calories (they are 240 per bar) or it feels more like “substance” in a bar format and not very tasty.

So when LUNA asked me to review their bars, I said a very excited, “YES”.

First, LUNA Bars made by the CLIF Bar company. It is a company that I know and trust and love.

Second, LUNA Bars are tailored to woman. Their flavors are more in line with my taste buds. (Chocolate Peanut Butter, Chocolate Cherry Almond, Mint Chocolate Chip – are you noticing a theme here?)

Third, LUNA bars are lower calories (around 180) than traditional CLIF Bars and they still have a high level of protein (12 grams or higher).

And because I believe (at least I hope and pray) that I’m not the only one who forgets to eat breakfast or lunch because they are too busy worrying about everything else – I’m giving away (5) LUNA Prize Packs which include a sample pack of LUNA Protein bars as well as a bonus treat from LUNA.

    My go-to snack is a cheese stick or any kind of nut butter. But, I’m trying to cut back on dairy and gluten, so would love me so Luna bars!

  17. Kelly says

    My goto snack is any kind of fruit, which is hard to keep on hand and expensive at times. I also like to keep nuts for fast protein and on the go times when I have to something in my stomach.

  19. Erica says

    I dropped 35 pounds before I hit a wall. Trying to get over the wall to lose the other 45. When I have my brain engaged, my go to is 1 tbsp of peanut butter rolled up in a Mission carb balance tortilla. Luna bars would be a nice break 🙂

  27. Krystal says

    Luna bars are awesome! They helped me curb morning/all day sickness- not sure why but they did. I stash them everywhere. Just got my mom to switch to them from granola bars. Can you say Chocolate Coconut Crunch? Mmmmmm…..

  30. tracy says

    i do the same thing, i grab whatever i can find because my one year old daughter doesn’t give me any opportunity to make something. some days i eat a handful of skittles and a string cheese as breakfast/lunch its hardly ever healthy and probably is the reason that I work out everyday but my weight is always the same 🙁
    i am a friend on facebook and get your emails, i would love to try these out!

  31. Christy A. says

    I grab whatever we have stocked up in the pantry when I want a snack…and it’s usually not healthy. I need to find some good healthy snacks to stock up on.

  36. Libby says

    Luckily I get to snack with my kids in my preschool room ! If not when I commute home I grab a QT CornDog and Refill my Dr.Pepper this is only if I am desperate, Yes this mom does not eact breakfast. Luna Bars sound yummy !

  39. Alyson says

    I try to snack on nuts, fruit, or carrots. Unfortunately, sometimes I don’t have these things on hand or prepped, and I just grab whatever is nearby, which is usually junk.

  44. Kristin says

    I subscribe to your emails and I love them. Great for an update if I am to busy that day to see each deal individually throughout the day.

  47. Shanna says

    My go to snack is natural beef jerky (no msg) and a cheese stick. Gotta have my protein, but I’m looking for a new-more fun- snack!

  55. Bugmagnt says

    peanut butter is always a good snack for me….or when I’m at work, nuts since they are readily available…

  67. su says

    I “go to” cocopops(they’re like rice cakes). Those are fine alone…it’s the Nutella I spread on top that’s the killer 🙂

  81. Lisa says

    hate me, but I eat whatever I can get my hands on … but I’d love some luna bars!

    thanks for the giveaway!

  84. Kristin says

    I typically grab some veggies and hummus, however when there’s no hummus, things go south (ie chips) fast.

  89. caloricandcrazy says

    My go-to snack is definitely any Clif bar product: original clif bars, Luna Bars, Clif Builder’s Bars, ZBars—-I love them all! My sis and dad even made me a clif bar cake for my birthday (http://caloricandcrazy.wordpress.com/2011/08/11/on-the-weekend/) They have just enough sweetness to fulfill your candy bar craving, but provide enough nourishment as a snack or quick meal. I also love collecting the wrappers and saving them for Terracycle, a company that uses the wrappers of several products to make new items.

    If I were one of the winners, these bars would be helpful in giving me sustained energy for the long hours I spend at my summer internship, as well as warm my soul with their delicious flavors ;). Haha, may sound a little cheesy, but I love Luna Bars so incredibly much <3.

  91. Heather H. says

    I usually grab a granola bar to eat. I love the Luna bars. They taste like your eating something bad for you. 🙂

  94. Kacy says

    My go to snack is whatever is closest and easiest to get to at the moment. LUNA bars would be a great, healthy item to have on hand. Thanks for sharing!

  96. Jen says

    I love Luna bars for a quick snack on the go. If I’m home it’s usually whole wheat pita chips and hummus!

  105. Nicole says

    I usually reach for a Special K or a Pria bar. I was told that the White Chocolate Macadamia Nut LUNA bar is good, but I haven’t tried it yet. I found out about the contest from the email I got from you and I tagged you in my post on FB.

  108. Monique says

    My go to snack is usually a bag of potato chips or a snickers bar. I’m a full time mom, full time employee, full time student and full time couponer! I usually find myself getting whats quick, easy and available.

    I am already a subscriber to Kansas City Mamas email list.

  109. Kimberly says

    Depends on what is in the house…usually a protein shake or a Fiber One bar.

  111. Brenda says

    My go-to snack is a bag of raw almonds. So healthy and good. And I notice whenever I’m snacking on these I tend to lose weight. Not the roasted/salted either, just the raw.

  118. buffalo says

    favorite handy energy boost is a cold v-8 esp during these dangerous hot days
    let me know if chosen
