  • Looking to add some to my list so I don't get board.
    Of course fruits and veggies are great.
    I just bought some mini-delights by Quaker.
    They are ultra thin rice cookies with a smidge of extra flavor (we bought White Chocolate, Chocolate Drizzle and Cinnamon) All these flavors are wonderful. Individual packages are 90 calories. I bought them at Walmart.

    What have you found?

  • Cheese! string cheese or white cow cheese. Peanut butter and celery
  • I've found a new love for prunes!
  • yogurt...or sugar free pudding
  • Sensible foods dried fruit and fruit smooshers in the organic section
  • It's not the most convenient BUT I really enjoy a simple little salad as a snack. Spinach, tomatoes, broccoli, a smidge of dressing and some lean protein. You can have a nice little snack that way around 100 calories. Sometimes I'll get fancy and wrap it up in a tortilla, YUMMO.

    I don't typically eat traditional big sit down meals. I just eat all day, lol. I'll also do tortilla wraps with roasted chicken (110 cals), pouches of tuna (90 cals), a little serving of cottage cheese with veggies (80 cals), nuts (180 cals), a TBS of almond butter (90 cals) and so on.

    I don't eat much convenience food, I get a better bang for my calorie buck by making my own snackys.
  • I am loving cherry flavored prunes right now.
    (abomination, i know) hehe


    yogurt, I LOVE cottage cheese and the new cracked pepper and olive oil triscuit crackers. that is a definate fave. Sometimes, if I have extra cals left over I will have two servings of those and make it a meal.

  • Laughing cow cheese (french onion ) with some simply naked pita chips.

    string cheese, olives, hb eggs, yogurt, cottage cheese w/fruit, tuna,

    I can take a single serve sugar free jello pudding pack, make it and add fresh fruit for 100 cals. The pudding only has 70, even w/ skim milk to mix it.

    I also eat veggies. Last night I had a 3.5 serviings of canned mixed veggies w/ a can of mushrooms as my mini meal.

    Oh yeah..forgot NUTS! I love almonds and sunflower seeds. Just gotta watch portions.
  • I love sugar free pudding and also a new love to rice cakes! Yummy!
  • Edamane nuts! (if that is spelled right) or soy nuts rinsed though. low cal deli meat(1 serving though) for me would be 6 pieces. ^_^
  • Many of my snacks are more like mini- meals. Those 100 calorie packs are not for me. They're over with in a second and leave me clamoring for me 100 calorie packs. Same thing with the rice cakes. It's pure air food to me. I need to get some nutrition and FILLING power from my snacks. Keeps me going and on plan.

    Some of my favs:

    -egg white omlette with sauteed veggies
    -FF/SF yogurt with Fiber One Cereal
    -HUGE salad with 3 oz of tuna
    -Turnip fries
    -veggie platter with salsa
    -roasted zucchini and tomatoes
    -cucumber, tomato, onion salad
    -cucumber salad
    -raw string beans
    -sliced apple dipped in 1 tsp peanut butter or sprinkled with cinnamon
    -grapefruit
    -baked apple
  • Plain fat free yogurt with blueberries and strawberries and a little sweetener is my favorite snack.
    On an extra hungry day I like to saute some vegetables, zucchini, yellow squash, mushrooms, tomatoes with garlic and italian seasonings.
