Chicken.....most sundays we grill and I make 3 - 4 oz portions to freeze and have for snacks. I'll season several different ways so I have choices. This came from months of too many high carb/sugar snacks and trying to figure out how to maximize protein and get a better macro balance - definitely still very much a work in progress for me

one slice of bread with cream cheese is only 100 cals

That sounds great but most of the bread I see is more like 100 cals just for the bread with another 50-100 on top of that for the cream cheese...the only one I know of that is less is a 45 calorie sara lee bread but the slices are so small....

Wonder makes a Wheat bread called Smart Bread, it's 50 cals per slice and looks and tastes like real bread lol it's yummy

My snacks range from fruit (Green grapes, Apples, Strawberries, or Pineapple), veggies (raw carrots YUMMY!, cucumbers), Rice Cakes (butter popcorn is my new favorite), yogurt with granola, almonds or sunflower seeds.

Eat Smart Garden Veggie Crisps

Problem with these is that I HATE the spinach ones...and often times the color is so light I can't tell if it is or not...I gagged the last time I had them.

mozzarella cheese sticks made w/ 2% low fat milk

are one of the biggest things my scale has ever had to face.

never again.

I think I may have 10 between now and when I die because of that hard-learned truth.

What does this mean? What "hard-learned truth" are you talking about?

I'm constantly snacking on veggies! I make a really yummy mix of cherry tomatoes, carrots, snap peas, celery, broccoli, and cauliflower!
Good fruit snacks are apples, a "fruit salad" with fresh watermelon, pineapple, strawberries, blueberries, and whatever other fruit you want!

Hummus goes really well with veggies and crackers is is really yummy!

Pineapple is a favorite of mine, as well as plain Fage 0% with berries (fresh or frozen). I also keep a jar of peanut butter in my office (for whatever fruit I bring, or sometimes if I'm feeling carby I bring a 100 calorie sandwich thin and use half).

Might sound weird, but I like to make up some grilled chicken and cube it. I eat it with a little bit of honey so it takes care of any sugar craving I have. I make the chicken the night before or use last nights left over chicken and warm it up in the microwave at work.

For some reason this sounds amazing!!
