    Hi, Have you tried the Joe Wicks recipe books? He gives loads of recipes for low carb snacks and meals? Or try googling low carb snacks? Fruit and veggies are a good shout, eggs and chicken are protein but will still fill you up.
    Good Luck x

    Low carb means you'll be restricting your food choices. So first decide what low carb is for and whether that is helpful for you. Low carb is supposed to reduce hunger, so you shouldn't have to snack while eating low carb. Eating well, low carb or not, will generally reduce hunger anyway. But hunger is normal, and good, and to be expected. Fear of hunger is exaggerated.

    You should buy foods you want to eat. You can eat anything you want. You lose weight by consistently eating less than you burn. Anything you can eat as a meal, you can eat as a snack.

    I don't eat low carb but I love caramleized onion hummus on some rolled up ham. I add a Splenda packet to the hummus to make it a bit sweeter too and eat this with crackers but if you are dead set on restricting a food group you could omit the crackers
