I have an issue with when I'm bored I want to eat something crunchy... Anything. Which most of the time in this house is cookies.
--__--
Attempting to stay away from them. I noticed the calorie intake in the amount of cookies consumed in one day. HOLY COOKIES.
Not very good. So any ideas? Tips? Tricks? : ) Thank you so much! : )

Hmmm....I guess I don't really consider cookies a crunch snack but a sweet snack.
If you want crunchy, these are pretty good: http://www.specialk.com/en_us/products/cracker-chips.html?utm_source=google&utm_medium=cpc&utm_term=special%20k%20cracker%20chips&utm_content=Special+K+Cracker+Chips_Exact&utm_campaign=Intention_Cracker+Chips_HV&gclid=CL-b_4rRp7gCFWNgMgod6yoATQ
If you want sweet, I love Skinny Cow chocolate candy and the 20 calorie Flavor Ice popsicles0 -
100 calorie bags of popcorn work well.0

Mixed nuts! Eating some now.0

I like veggie chips. They're close enough to normal chips that they satisfy the salty craving. I have to pre-portion the bag, though, or I'll eat a couple servings at a time.0

Boom Chicka Pop popcorn--amazing and like 35 cals a cup!0

*100 calorie popcorn.
*chopped celery (i eat it like popcorn, crazy i know).
*and someone mentioned those special K chips, those are deliciousness.
*Plain baby carrots are great for a crunchy snack also or any raw veggie actually.0 -
Veggie sticks are crunchy and low cal. Carrots, cucumbers, celery, sugar snap peas, etc. You can also make a dip with reduced fat sour cream or yogurt and still keep it fairly low cal.
Depending on how many you eat, chips and salsa isn't too high calorie.
There are several puffed or baked chips available that can be a low calorie snack.0 -
Celery, baby carrots, raw cauliflower and broccoli...
Cookies will keep the spare tire....veggies help lose it!0 -

I suggest veggie sticks, which I think tastes just like potato chips but lesser calories.
Pop chips, which is a really good chips without the high calories.
Tortilla chips & salsa is good if you eat it in moderation.
Or you can snack on some vegetables like celery and peanut butter.0 -
Peanut Brittle is pretty crunchy as are potato chips0

plain unsalted/natural nuts
popcorn
veggie sticks , with or without dip0 -
