    - Diet popcorn (100 calories.)
    - Fruit Salad
    - Veggies!
    - Celery actually has negative calories.
    - 1/2 cup of plain oatmeal (with sweetner if you want.) has only 150 calories and it is very filling.

    Hot tea, first. Zero calories, but still satisfying. :)

    Next - beef or chicken broth, low sodium (or soup, french onion soup is great and low cal without the cheese/croutons!).

    Next - probably the best hack - the big bowl of noodles in this post: http://www.myfitnesspal.com/topics/show/307942-169-calorie-big-big-big-bowl-of-noodles?hl=big+bowl+of+noodles&page=1#posts-4085606 . I tried the Shiritaki noodles for myself this weekend, and I have to say - they are pretty good! :D Especially in Asian dishes.

    Cheers! :D

    Tuna lettuce rolls:

    1 can (drained) chunk light tuna (120 calories)
    1-2 Tbsps of light mayonnaise (40-80 calories)
    chopped pickles and celery (5 -10 calories)
    3-4 large lettuce leaves

    Mix tuna, mayo and chopped veggies, scoop into lettuce leave and roll em up. About 200 calories for all, and very filling!

    EGG WHITES
    take 3 egg whites at room temp, beat to stiff peaks adding splenda when they get foamy, I add a half tsp of cream of tartar and a flavor extract like peppermint. this makes a huge bowl of meringue. drop by spoons onto wax paper or sprayed cookie sheet. and bake in slow oven. it takes about 45 mins. you can bake them in a hotter oven. but watch them close and the texture is a bit different. then munch munch. keep them air tight or they turn into something else. its all protein. only 60 calories for the egg whites. they are fat free of course. sprinkle with a bit of cinnamon, leave the splenda out and use savory spices instead. you get at least a dozen big ol cookies or bunches odf pop in your mouth ones. you can make a litte dent in the middle and add a 1/2 tsp sugar free jam, this is the perfect base for a fill....drop them into muffin tins make a deep well, bake empty then at the dinner table or when ever you can fill with fresh fruit. makes a great presentation. yum

    Oh, I am definitely printing this out for tonight!! Thanks! :flowerforyou:

    Freeze bananas, add a lo cal choc syrup/fudge, almonds. Add some lo cal/lo fat whip cream after taking out ofo freezer. Its like a banana split minus the icecream. Curbs the craving for sweets and is a filling snack/desert. :love:

    I eat watermelon like it's going out of style. It's less then 100 calories for a cup of diced watermelon, and it's VERY filling. I will eat 1/4 of a watermelon for lunch sometimes.
