I would be interested to see what others think and I don't know if they are totally legal on the SBD Phase I but my thoughts are that they probably are, is to get some AdvantEdge Carb Control shakes - they have about 100 calories, lots of protein, taste pretty good, and are super portable. They sell them at WalMart and at Sam's. They have only a couple of grams of carbs and no added sugar. I haven't looked at the ingredients closely though.
They only have 100 calories so you might need to eat something with them (like your nuts, or drink two (they are not very big)) for breakfast but they would also be good to stick in your purse. They do not have to be refrigerated - just pour over some ice. They also make a good snack.
Another thought along the same lines - don't know if you are a coffee drinker but I love the Designer Protein whey protein in chocolate - a scoop stirred into milk or coffee is pretty good and keeps you going for a while. This too has no added sugar - 2 g net carbs - and a good bit of protein.
EDITED to add: I looked at the nutritional label on the AdvantEdge Carb Control drinks - 100 calories, 3 g fat, 15g protein, and 1g impact carbs. They look ok ingredient wise too - they contain some sunflower oil but it is not hydrogenated, which I think is OK, particuarly in the kind of pinch you describe.
