Special K cracker chips are 27 chips at 110 calories. Cures my chip cravings.

Plain greek yogurt with Hidden Valley Harvest Dill dry mix for an awesome low cal veggie dip. Good protein source too.

Omg! That greek yogurt idea is freaking amazing! I'm SO trying that next time when I need to get my dip on.

My secret is taking my favorite things and reducing the portions. My PBJ sandwich is about 62 cals (1 slice of Honey wheat 40 cal bread by natures own, 1/2 tsp or less of peanut butter- I use this verrrry sparingly, just a trace for taste- and 1 tsp of Smuckers reduced sugar jam). This is actually reallly satisfying and I eat it several times a day. I also eat my faaaavorite rice krispie treats (1/4 cup of rice krispies, 0 cal spray butter, 4-5 marshmallows- nuke for 10 seconds = about 33 calories). For my choco ice cream fix, I go for Kemps Chocolate frozen yogurt and I eat 1/4 cup which is 45 cals. I snack on Veggie straws from Whole foods or World Market (38 straws are 130 cals, but don't eat the entire serving, eat 1/2- they really fill you up and they're SOOOO good- I thought they were going to be gross). Carrot sticks dipped in just a tiny bit of honey mustard dip or dressing is satisfying as is a banana (eat 1/2 twice a day to make it go farther)... adding a dallop of whipped cream and some chocolate sprinkles makes this sweet treat about 45 calories (90 for the entire thing).

Just remember: NEVER eat a serving. American servings are SO huge these days, it is not necessary. If you do want to eat an entire serving, count it out, put it in a baggie, and snack on it for more than one snack.

Salty liquorice at 64cal in a pack, but it takes a whole day to eat a pack.

And any sort of homemade vegetable based dip, which I eat with carrot sticks usually, not celery.

Atlantique

-Greek Yogurt
-Hardboiled egg
-Hummus on veggies as a dip
-Cottage cheese (I usually stir in a dab of pesto for flavor)
-Protein powder smoothie
-Chicken breast
-Ounce of almonds or 2T almond butter
-Soy sausage patty
-Edamame

Triscuit hint of salt crackers (6) and a wedge of laughing cow cheese.

I didn't read all the responses, so someone may have said this already, but Chobani Greek Yogurt has about 14g of protein per container/serving!

Celery...

It had to be someone. I'm glad it was you.

It was about to be me... What the hell, I'll say it anyways.

Celery?

I love nut butters, so I eat a Quaker chocolate crunch rice cake spread with 1 tbs. cashew or almond butter almost every day. My sweet indulgence. 155 calories!

This sounds great! I have mini chocolate rice cakes - I could use these with peanut butter in the middle and make a couple small 'sandwiches' when I want something sweet.
