    I just rediscovered pork rinds today at the grocery. I am always needing to get more fats and protein in at the end of the day (but usually have no carbs left). One serving is 80 calories. has no carbs, 5 grams fat, 8 grams protein AND satisfies that need for something crunchy and salty. Probably not the most nutritious snack out there but it serves my purpose.

    I also love pepperjack cheese. Maybe some cheese and fresh strawberries. Or frozen grapes.

    I snack on grapes dipped in vanilla yogurt or baby carrots dipped in dill or spinach dip. And, sometimes I eat my favorite, Pringles Light chips while sipping V8 juice.

    Here's my list. Frozen grapes. Apple slices dipped before each bite in peanut butter, mini bag of popcorn,small baby carrots-Love the crunch,bread and butter pickles, 1oz of shelled roasted unsalted peanuts, almonds, 100 calorie snack pack,string cheese or one serving of any fruit that you like. The key here is to stay below your daily calorie goal and eat only serving size. Drink an 8oz glass of water before eating your snack. The serving size should then be satisfying for you. Wishing you the best.:flowerforyou:

    Zero fat vanilla greek yogurt and fresh berries or a homemade oatmeal cookie or a piece of baby biel cheese or a hardboiled egg or a a small piece of toast with some banana on top it.

    It all depends on what type of day I am having.

    I make something I call a "Veggie Bag". It's just a large freezer bag filled with fresh vegetables (carrots, mushrooms, grape tomatoes, snap peas, and celery sticks). I make it the night before and take it to work with me, so when someone puts out donuts or cookies I take out my veggie bag to munch on. I also make them up on the weekends to munch on while watching movies with my husband.

    All great ideas. I'm taking notes. Is there a certain time you stop snacking? Someone in my family said not to eat past 6pm.

    A: When you are no longer hungry or when you have met your caloric goal for the day :)

    I never feel guilty about the food I eat. I either make sure it fits in my calories and macros and/or I just eat whatever I want regardless of calories once every week or two.

    I'm about to have a hoho or two and a decaf chai latte.

    hmm, let's see:

    coconut or almond milk greek yogurt with a spoon of chocolate soy protein (frozen is even better!)
    baby carrots with red pepper hummus
    popcorn with a little salt and nutritional yeast
    fat free mini pretzels
    apples and grapes
    and as of tonight, mojito sorbet! omfreakingnom

    it used to be chips and salsa or guacamole. that's one snack that's wayyy too easy for me to go overboard with. it'll be a little while before i reintegrate them into my diet... le sigh :ohwell:

    I know this is gonna sound groundbreaking, but why not deal with your emotions in other ways? I don't think you're destined to be an emotional eater...

    Anyway, those little kid fruit snack kits make me feel pretty good if I need a little snack... Especially the ones shaped like Mickey Mouse's head. I got one today with apple slices, grapes, and cheese cubes for 130 calories. Mmm. They're just so cute! Somehow more emotionally satisfying than a boring adult ziplock bag. lol
