    Fresh fruit and veg is good ideas for snacks on a low carb diet. Try a corn on the cob boiled or fire popped with some spices if you like it spicy. Or a carrot sticks? Cucumber sticks? A boiled egg?

    Make sure to check the carb count before snacking on Corn or Carrots -- they can be high in natural sugar and may sabotage yourself by accident!

    I use pepperoni and cheese as snacks -- good luck!

    I would try for fresh veggies, you can eat until you're full and they have very little impact on your cal/carb intake...becareful with the corn like previous posted said, LOADED with sugars/starches!

    Meat, eggs, or cheese, a small amount of high fat nuts (like macadamia), low carb veggies (celery, cukes, etc) with full fat ranch dressing or blue cheese.

    Make sure your main meals have enough fat in them to keep you satisfied. I find I don't always need snacks if my meals are fat heavy.

    Check out www.genaw.com the a huge list of low carb recipes. I would limit my corn, carrots, squash,tomatoes and root veggies they are loaded with sugar.

    Thanks everybody. Yeah, I watch my fruits and hardly ever eat corn. Full fat ranch?? Great idea.
