    I always get:

    cottage cheese (2%- used to do fat free but I need more healthy fat)
    plain yogurt
    sandwhich slims (bread not that healthy, but these 100 calorie buns come in whole grain and are pretty tasty)
    Tuna
    individual packets of frozen fish such as pollock or swaii
    nuts (different kinds, almonds, cashews, etc.)

    cottage cheese, fat free cheese, milk, and 2 different kinds of yogurt.
    I personally like Dannon Light n' fit 50-60 calorie containers and Chobani greek yogurt.
    I also have been buying propel zero packets. When I get bored with water they help me drink water instead of pop.
