Office Perils! What LP snacks do you keep in your drawer...?

  • Working in an office gets so boring and I tend to snack! I've been pretty good lately, and added a fruit basket as decoration! I want chocolate now! I try not to keep snacks in my bottom drawer, but I think I need to since the vending machine isn't exactly figure friendly.

    What types of things are in your snack stash, including the points.

  • Pretzels, Quakes, Baked Doritos, Minicandy bars
  • Splenda
    Assorted tea bags
    Dark chocolate hot cocoa powder
    Raisin bran
    mini packs of mms or other chocolate

    I usually bring my lunch, so I generally snack on carrots, sugar peas, cucumbers or various fruits. I hate veggies, so this gets the veggie servings out of the way so I can enjoy the evening and not stress about having to eat x oz of vegetables before bed.
  • Great tips - the one that works best for me is caffiene free peppermint green tea. It counts as a water and has 0 points but gets rid of my sweet tooth craving.

    We have a candy machine and for .25 you get about 5 or 6 M & M's. If I get a real craving I go for that.

    Looking forward to hearing other ideas
  • snack bags of the dry cereal of your choice, carrot sticks and fruit
  • frozen tj's fruit, mozz sticks, crackers (sometimes), tea, coffee, milk
  • I like to keep WW 2 point bars, hot Wasabi peas, pretzels, cereal, sugar free hard candies and apple cinnamon Quakes.

    Go for M&M's or 3 Musketeers when you get that bad craving. A mini snack size Musketeer is only 3 points for two.

    Hope it helps. (I also thrive on caffeine free peppermint tea.)

  • I keep some ff sf jello and pudding in the fridge for my sweet craving. I have some veggies and fruit as well as a jar of pickles.

    I also plan out what I'm going hte eat the day before that way if someone brings in food (Like a cake) if I didn't know about it and plan for the points, I don't eat it.

    One other thing I've started doing is to only eat in the kitchen area. that way i'm not tempted to just munch all day long.
  • what is it????
    Just read through these posts, great ideas.
    What is frozen tj's fruit? Someone posted that and I don't know what it is! If it's a low point snack, I'd sure like to know!

  • Hard candy for a sweet tooth, triscuits (7 for 3 points) and laughing cow wedges (1 wedge = 1pt), and apples w/ natural PB to name a few
