I've read that a banana is a good option.

Something with some protein and carb-
An apple and a slice of low fat cheese or celery and peanut butter and raisins.

I have half a granola bar in the morning on the train before I work out at my work gym.

I agree! If I eat early and then work out, I'll eat a banana about 1/2 an hour before I work out. It totally fills me up and gives me energy.

Re: Good Snack prior to going to gym

you should have about 200 to 300 calories as a snack-- especially if you are going to workout shortly.

Some options are:
- Zone Bar
- 1 Slice Whole Wheat Bread w/ Peanut Butter
- Handful of almonds and a piece of fruit
- 1 cup of dry cereal-- rich with fiber and protein (I like Go Lean), with a piece of fruit, or soy milk
