String cheese. Ziplock bags of assorted nuts. Boiled egg. Fruit, obviously. Fibre One bars. Raw veggies, cucumber, bell pepper, carrots, etc.

laughing cow cheese, i cant say it enough lol. good on 100 cal muffins, on cooked carrots or any cooked veggie for that matter, great on low cal wraps or crackers, melt with a little milk in microwave and pour over 1 cup cooked whole wheat pasta (makes it like an alfredo sauce), the options are endless :)

ohhhhhhh i almost forgot, cant believe i almost forgot this one! special k20 protien water is the absolute best thing going right now, it is a life saver for me, very filling and a great "on the go" item to have on hand.

I like crunching on a handful of dry whole-grain cereal. :D

(Not the flake kind, but the squares kind)

I like to take a bit of plain yogurt (or vanilla, if plain isn't your thing), add a few tablespoons of Kellog's All-bran cereal (the bran buds type), and throw some fresh raspberries on top.

Lettuce is in season where I live - real live lettuce that's crunchy and tasty. I roll up a couple of large leaves in a small whole wheat pita with a tbsp. or two of hummus. I think it would be good with a wedge of Laughing Cow instead, too. Super quick and easy, and nice and cool for summer!

A few of my favorites are:

FF plain Greek yogurt(80 cals) with 1/4 cup Bare Naked Fit Granola (120cals)

and

I'll buy the Musselmans lite flavored applesauce in the 1/2cup six packs and freeze them. One of those is 60cals, counts as a serving of fruit and the cherry frozen tastes like Italian Ice! Perfect for the hot, humid summer days!

Trail mix, dried fruit, no sugar added fudgscicles they only have 40 calories, homemade popcorn with lemon pepper seasoning, low-carb pickle wraps with ham, cream cheese and dill pickle. Yum! I'm hungry now!
