Low calorie sweet & snack options?

MFP has me at 1320 calories per day to lose 1lb/week. I would like to eat 3 meals and 3 snacks to avoid feeling too hungry and sabotage my efforts by overeating. So I'm in search of low calorie snacks so I will not be bored with limited options and have variety. Btw, I'm not on a specific plan just plan to eat within my calorie range and try to eat healthy most of the time.
Also, feel free to "friend" me if you have similar goals.

Something to keep in mind....don't feel like you HAVE to eat that often. So, if it's snack time and you're not hungry....don't worry about it!
I like Apples and popcorn as lower-cal snacks. A good amount of fat can sometimes do the trick for me, so I will have a half serving or so of nuts or sunflower seeds.
For sweets....dark chocolate is yummy! I'll pair it with nuts or dried fruit depending on what I'd like.

fiber one bars, flavored mini rice cakes, an ounce of cheddar cheese about 140 calories for 4 slices, mozarella sticks, a couple of dark chocolate truffles, beef jerky. A lot of people like halo top icecream.2

What country are you in? In UK, little pots of sugar free pre-made jelly (jello) can be 5-10 calories and a fab dessert after lunch when you want a sweet hit.
Homemade air-popped popcorn or how about a flavoured rice cake or two (depending on whether you like sweet/caramel flavours or savoury/chilli/bbq types)1 -
sugar free jell-o is a good go-to with almost no calories at all. Other than that, vegetables and low-fat dip, berries, and fruit are also very good.1

Reduced fat wheat thins (16 for 120cals) with tuna salad or chicken salad, or even just cheese and salami! Kettle corn is great for something warm and sweet and so low in calories. Quaker rice cakes with fresh ground PB. The bumble bee brand sells those little boxes of “chicken salad w/ crackers” and the calories on those are pretty low and it’s an easy, quick, cheap snack.0
