Hi
It really depends on why you are snacking and which weight loss program suits you - keto or low fat or just cutting back on calories over all. I think snacks that suit the healthiest version of your favourite diet are the ones that work best.
The obvious, easy ones are fresh fruit if you need some sugar or veg - carrot, cucumber, celery sticks, cherry tomatoes etc if you want to graze.
I love Itsu seaweed thins - great iodine and salt if you've done a work out, and only 22 cals a packet.
Some cold roast chicken is good if you are hungry.
Edamame bean pots are good - about 100 calories and very satisfying.1 -
Almonds1

My best snack is no snack. I used to think eating every couple of hours was necessary, but it's not. Now I just eat bigger meals (2-4 a day) and feel a lot more satisfied.6

Schwan's Black Cherry Frozen Yogurt! A half-cup (72 g) serving is 120 calories. I pre-log my meals and snacks so I stay within my planned calorie count.

Sugar snap peas, carrots + hummus, peppers + hummus (Oasis tomato bruschetta hummus is only 35 cals for 2 TBSP!) Lesser evil popcorn, a serving or two of cereal, really anything I can make under 250 cals is what I fit in as a snack.1

I don't snack as I eat meals that hold me over until my next meal. My favourite snacky food though is homemade popcorn.5

Sounds so good0 -
Simple for me.......hard boiled eggs! I crave them!2

If I'm craving something sweet then it's oatmeal with cinnamon baked apples and hemp seeds in the summer. In the winter I typically use berries instead of apples. A whole lot fibre leaves me feeling full for so long
If I'm craving something savory then I'll have seaweed, or sweet potatoe/arrowroot either plain or with some meat or veggies
Geez, I'm getting a bit hungry...1 -
My favorite snack is a hard boiled egg.
It's low calorie, low carb, has plenty of protein, and knocks down my hunger.2 -
Flavored Greek or Icelandic yogurt with a couple tablespoons of granola mixed in; Dr. Kraker Pumpkin Seed & Cheddar with cheese or cottage cheese or hummus; an apple or pear; a handful of mixed nuts or almonds; smoothie made with protein powder, frozen fruit, and unsweetened almond milk; a little plate with mixed olives, cherry tomatoes, cornichons, and other veggies if I have them.0
