Fast and Fasting

I've been eating a granola bar as I head out for a walk or swim for a while now. Seems like half the people say you should work out on an empty stomach and the other half say you should eat something. I can't say I've noticed a difference or anything, but I worried I'd be hungry while fasting this morning before my lab work. And I wanted to get that done quickly because I also had plans to take my car in as close to 9am as possible. Ever since I left my headlights on during Friday's tattoo appointment, it struggles to turn over a bit when I start it. That's normally the kind of thing I might take care of at lunchtime and eat nearby, but I had calls scheduled for 1:00 and 1:30.
