Trying to lose the covid 100; need to plan ahead for cons!

I thought I'd ask here b/c I"m just starting this.

I lost over 200 lbs at one point (graduation weight); during covid I gained half of it back. (Was using MyfitnessPal to do that.)

Got with a weight loss doctor (so a GLP1 drug might be in my future if my insurance covers it), but hopefully 5k steps, water aerobics, watching/tracking what I eat and other help from that clinic will help. Thing is, I'm trying to think ahead here.

I go to 2 cons a year; Momocon and Southern Fried Gaming Expo. Thing is I do like to pack some snacks along with my water (I bring a LOT of water; GA heat is no joke), so want to find a few that can survive being in a backpack for a good while and not go bad, not to mention not ruin my calorie count. (Mouth gets lonely sometimes, lol. Want to make sure I'm not tempted by expensive con food stands, they charge you a arm and a leg. Not to mention it's almost ALL junk food.)

Also, Momocon in particular I'm usually running out early since I ride public transit to get there. (No hotel room) My usual breakfast is oatmeal with frozen fruit (no sugar) and a little milk. Might not have TIME to cook the oatmeal. Any ideas, folks?
