    Nuts (Blue Diamond makes a variety of flavored almonds that are delicious), baked chips, apple slices are also good dipped in hummus, veggie sticks are good dipped in hummus or pb, a piece of whole grain toast, edamame, string cheese

    I have an apple almost everyday also, I eat mine with PB2 chocolate (try it! a lot less calories then regular PB.
    Luna bars are a good option, but they are a little high in sugar so be careful.
    Hummus with carrots or crackers.
    Special K chips
    Snapea Crisps (These are amazing!! They have different flavors.)
    Nutritional shake

    What is PB2 chocolate?
    I want to avoid high sugar levels so thank you for letting me know.
    You have just reminded me of my LOVE for the Special K Crisps - Thai Sweet Chilli flavour is delicious so thank you so much!
    I'll look into Snapea Crisps as I am very curious as to what these are :smile:

    PB2 Chocolate is a powdered peanut butter, you add water & its turn into creamy peanut butter. the fat & sugar in it is less then half of regular PB. Try it and you will thank me later!! :wink:
    BTW you can find it in the organic selection in the grocery store

    Air pop popcorn. 30 calories in a cup of it. I do put popcorn seasoning on it and spray a little spray butter to make it stick but it's so good. I bring it almost daily as then I get fiber, a little protein, and a whole morning/afternoon of snacking as I eat it slowly.

    I also love cucumbers with hot sauce.

    Pistachios - they are a little higher in calories but have good fat and will keep you going. plus, opening the shell keeps your hands busy and you can't eat them in seconds!

    I don't want to sounds dumb here - but what is air pop popcorn? I love popcorn so this would be fantastic for me but I have only ever seen the standard shop bought salted/sweet microwave popcorn?

    The pistachio/hand busy/longer to eat is a great idea! Thanks a lot :happy:

    Air popped popcorn - popped in an air popper machine. I eat this almost every day, yum!

    A lot of the 100 calorie snack packs are pretty good - I'm in love with these yogurt covered pretzel ones.
