late night snack ideas?

debbiesweety

I have a serious late night snack issue. I try to save up all my calories so I don't go over. (I go over alot) I portion things and try to stay under 100 calories per snack. My favorite is diet hello with light whipped cream, 15 total calories. I get salty and sweet cravings. Does anyone have any good or creative snack ideas, or ways to curb the craving?

Thanks Deborah. Under 10 labs to go!

I love 100 calorie pop-secret popcorn (or variations thereof). pre-measured and salty. you could also add some stevia to sweeten and make like a kettle corn.

Thanks, I will try that the next time I go to stock my snack drawer

Smoothies. Smoothies. Smoothies.

My basic ingredients always are: Low fat french curd cheese (I think Americans always use greek yoghurt, tastes the same) and oatmeal. Mix in whatever fruit you like!

Lots of protein, carbs and o-so tasty! Your body needs the protein when you're asleep

I feel like night time is the worst! I find it easy to eat healthy all day, but when night time hits forget about it! Here are some suggestions that help me sometimes: Popsicles, yogurt, a bowl of fresh fruit, a cup of tea, or a cup of 1% chocolate milk

I love eating cottage cheese with a bit of honey.

Cheesecake.

I like saltines and pickles. The pickle is nothing, and Saltines are about 10 calories apiece.

veggie straws are very good and about 130 calories per serving (38 straws per serving)

I love having a muller light toffee flavour with banana chopped up in it, yum!

Veggie straws, popcorn chips with salsa or guacamole, sliced veggies (also with salsa or guacamole), 100-calorie popcorn bags, and nut thins are my favorite salty snacks. For sweet I usually do either cottage cheese with a little honey and nutmeg or the Yoplait Greek frozen yogurt bars, but I'm not a huge sweets fan most of the time.

i always need something sweet - i have found drinking a cup of herbal tea in a fruit flavor and eating a handful of almonds gets rid of the need for dessert. try upping the protien at night too - look into a good quality protien powder, maybe and break out the blender??

I always cut an apple into pieces en put it in the oven, it's delicious and healthy!
also try a hand full of nuts (pistachios or almonds are the best choice if you're on a diet) or dried fruits
or small wholewheat crackers with smoked salmon.

hope I could help!:)

100-calorie popcorn bags are my savior these days ^_^ So yummy and you get actually a good amount, too

If not, like others said, slices fruit with either greek yoghurt or cottage cheese, and add a sprinkle of nutmeg or cinnamon

If I'm totally out of calories for the day, a whole bag of mixed greens is about 30 cal. Eat it like a bag of chips.

cottage cheese and/or hard boiled egg!

Diet soda. With the gas it makes you feel full and the sweetness is a plus, all at zero cals. Also protein powder, isolate with water, not milk.

Most of the time...ok ALL of the time, I'm not hungry...just craving.

So I have hot green tea with a flavored teabag (usually mint or mint chocolate) with a half to a tablespoon of honey. There isn't enough caffeine to keep me up. You could also find caffeine-free. I just want something sweet at night. If I want something a bit more substantial; skim milk, cocoa powder, and a truvia...you can do this for about 150 cals.

Cooked oatmeal? Dry, instant?
