Those last 100 calories of the day.

blytheandbonnie

I always find myself with around 100 calories that I need to eat to get to my minimum calories. Besides the obvious apple or orange, what do you like to have to top up your calories for the day? I've went with a fudge bar or a few midgie tootsie rolls but I really don't want to eat a bunch of sugar right before bed. So, any ideas?

A few almonds fill me up before bed - you don't need too many and they are very satisfying.
Or a hot chocolate (or iced chocolate) with skim milk if you have room for the sugar.

I just had a mini bag of Smart Pop popcorn. Sometimes I sprinkle some cinnamon sugar on it, and a little parmesan cheese is also good.

i would say hot chocolate but not if you are avoiding sugar, how about a nice mug of warmed milk?

If by minimum you mean 1200 then I have a double protein shake with coconut milk. I never let myself stay below 1200. If by minimum you mean the general needs+exercise cals, then I let that slide. Unless I'm hungry- then I'll have a half serving of protein shake before bed.

By the time it's time for bed I'm too tired to even chew so drinking works for me.

I sometimes have a cocoa with those extra calories.

A hard boiled egg is around 80 calories, depending on the size.

Consult your inner child -- warm almond milk with some cinnamon and vanilla extract alongside some celery stuffed with PB2 and jelly

I like to have a cup of herbal tea with half a cup of skim milk added (obviously not a terribly acidic/fruity tea or it will curdle - usually i go with chamomile or peppermint, which is yummy with some milk added). It fills me up, warms me up and usually makes me pass out stone cold.

PagalM

I usually will do a cup of vanilla almond milk (90 cal) with a splash a cinnamon.

zasiiniya

I drink a glass of skim milk or eat a couple cookies (they're small and only 50 cal each).

I often do a protein shake. I was told that it will help keep the metabalism going while I sleep. Which in turn will help me lose more weight while at rest. I wake up often through out the nite hungry. Howvever, while doing the shake I do not wake up hungry at all. My shakes are 100 calories as well. Hope this helps.:glasses:

Every night I have a cup of Diet Cocoa & a Nature Valley Granola thin.

usmcmp

I do cottage cheese. Keeps me full and I don't wake up starving.

HauteP1nk

Some form of protein is good before bed. What I do when I am really hungry before bed and I just have to eat is I eat just a few cubes of cheese or I have a few crackers with peanut butter on it.

That is filling.

bigtone34

How about a Bud Light?

I don't count calories that closely, but I like a handful of Emerald Cocoa Roast almonds to finish off my day.

I love the fiber plus cereals, just eat a half cup of cereal and 1/4 cup of milk and that will do ya..plus lots of fiber in that little healthy bowl of cereal.

I love to have light yogurt at night. I used to have ice cream, this is a good substitute.

2012Wendy

A little over 100 calories, but I enjoy two large Wasa whole grain crispbread crackers (40 calories each) spread with a wedge of Laughing Cow cheese (35 calories). 115 calories and very satisfying.

sculley

I have a blue bunny snack size ice cream sandwich it's like 2g of sugar (no sugar added)..Its 80 calories.

hus1debbie

I like your idea. :drinker:

Pistachio nuts are a good option, 30 = 100 calories and they have some great health benefits as well.
