I found a couple of years ago that I do not ski nearly as well after lunch as I did before lunch, so I stopped taking lunch breaks. I think relaxing during that 45 minute break sent me out of my groove. So DH and I pack our pockets with Cliff Bars or Kind Bars (or something similar), mixed nuts, beef jerky, and eat that during one of our quick warm-up breaks.

Now that strategy definitely doesn't fly when our kids come with us! During those times, we'll sit down and eat the typical sandwiches and bananas.
I also have the after lunch blahs. I think it’s the lactic acid seeping into the muscles.

That's what we do. Get out on the slopes early and ski thru lunch. The crowds lighten so we can get in some nice runs till about 1:30/2pm when we head for soup or chili (in the condo or lodge). We have snacks to hold us over if we get a little hungry. We then head back out till about 7pm when the crazy night skiers appear after dinner and drinks. We could ski longer but the slopes stop being fun when the drunkards bomb straight down and/or do jumps without any regard for others safety. UghThat's me too. I like to ski through lunch. If the hill is crowded, I get some relief when everyone else goes in to eat. I feast when I'm done for the day.
