    I'm loving Fruity Pebbles and Coco Pebbles cereal bars! I work a long morning shift, so I need a snack between breakfast and lunch, and these are only 90 calories!! and also my favorite cereals :)

    Yes, I was thinking " nuts are not low calorie" :)

    Really good ideas otherwise! Thanks everybody

    I use them instead of mayo on sandwiches as well ... I also do that with flavored hummus! :)

    Greek yogurt - I like Chobani, Fage, and Dannon brands. Fresh (not frozen) chicken breast and low sodium tuna are my favorite proteins. Wholly guacamole 100cal packs and whole grain tortilla chips are GREAT snacks. Otherwise, I stick with fresh fruits and veggies, I MUST get these weekly: grapes, apples, bananas, cucumbers, lettuce, spinach, snow peas, carrots, celery, asparagus, red cabbage. Raw nuts and trail mix are a must have, even though they aren't always low cal.

    Fat free yogurt, I LOVE Fage - but any plain one will do really.
    Raspberries - but most fruit
    Any low fat cheese
    Chicken
    Salad
    Canned tuna
    Eggs
    Fish
    Raw nuts - especially almonds, I eat about 6 at a time, good fats and only about 42 cals for the 6

    Also fat free cottage cheese, tastes horrible the first couple of times, after that it's lovely to eat with pretty much anything!!!xx

    I LOVE edamame - frozen fresh whole soy beans from Sam's Club/Costco. They are prepackaged in 1/2 C bags. ( I don't use the sea salt) they are not genetically modified, no pesticides or funny biz! Fun to eat and cruncy!

    Claussen refrigerated pickle halves. I crave these and they have almost no calories.
