    I have to agree with Bookyeti. If you are following your plan of exercise and healthy eating, there is no reason that you cannot have a small bag of your fave chips on a cheat day. I do love PopChips as an alternative. My weakness is Snyder's Buffalo Hot Wings Pretzels. Love them! I eat 1 serving once in awhile as a treat for going hard. Before I buckled down and got serious about weightloss, I could eat an entire bag. The sodium is ridiculous. Don't punish yourself, treat yourself.

    Oh yes, the salty chip fairy visits regularly...but I've found that the low salt variations are very good, and if you want a dip, grab some yougurt, throw in some spices and there you have it...:bigsmile:

    I have a serious addiction to potato chips. I could never eat just one. I have found that the Special K Cracker chips are very satisfying as a crunch salty snack. They fit in real well with my caloric intake.

    I'm a recovering chip-o-holic... I went three months without anything, and the other night I just had a hankering for some.. so I got a snack bag of Kettle Jalepeno potato chips and a beer... but only after a seriously hard workout so that I could log it without guilt. I figure if I'm gonna have it, I'm gonna have what I want.

    After watching Dr. Oz's show one day on snacks, I took his suggestion and tried Blue Potato chips. The only brand I could find was Terra. They are really good and I like them better than regular potato chips now. Also, they don't seem as oily as regular chips :smile:

    Loved their sweet potato chips...until I found out they have 11 grams of fat per serving. SIGH! The best stuff is always not good for me.

    Somebody gave me a recipe for kale chips when I was pregnant and I won't eat anything else now. They're super easy to make and super delish!

    I was out to lunch earlier with my hubby and I ordered a grilled chicken wrap with veggies and they gave me a lot of potato chips on the side. I ate 6 and then had the server take them away. Now this evening I had a serving of bbq pringles so that I could use up some of my calories. I had 215 calories leftover and still have a few after eating the chips. It is my bed time and I am pretty full right now so I can really do without them. My weakness has been fries. I try to steer faraway from them.

    I like Pringles Light (70 cals, 0 g fat per 15 pringles), Trader Joe's Everything Pretzel Thins (110 cals, 1 g fat per 23 pretzels), Kame Cheddar Rice Crackers (110 cals, 2 g fat per 16 crackers), among some of the other ones that have been listed :)

    LOVE Stacy's pita chips

    Gah I LOVE Stacy's pita chips too. And the Everything Bagel Chips. I like eating them with hummus or garden vegetable cream cheese. Those are seriously my biggest food addictions. I've stopped buying them because I have a hard time not snarfing down the whole bag. :blushing:

    i stopped eating most potato chips back in High School. They were just too greasy and wiping my hands on my jeans meant I had to wash them more often. Plus THAT much grease sorta grossed me out. It's a phobia I've kept over the years.

    Oddly enough I don't mind home-made "potato chips" which are simply potato slices I saute in butter then drain. Things are DELICIOUS.

    I also do enjoy Baked Lays. No disgusting grease and about half the calories. I think one bag is like 170 calories.

    Quaker rice cakes in the sweet chili flavor or the sea salt and pepper flavor are yummy and you can have 16-18 of them for 130 calories.
