    LOL! I like cheese too:)
    It's hard to know how much is "too much" though . . .

    if it fits your macros, it's not too much :)

    that's what our food diary is for!

    Do you guys find that cheese has a lot of sodium though? I had some cheddar today and couldn't believe how salty it is!

    I would go for...Greek yogurt and blueberries, protein bars/balls/shakes, nuts and fruit...

    For a meal - quinoa with whatever veggies you have on hand mixed in.

    THIS! (Especially the cheese. LOL) I also like fresh berries, they satisfy the "sweet cravings" and have a good amount of fiber to help tide me over until lunch/dinner. :) Add the berries to the greek yogurt and it's like dessert for snack. NOM NOM. Also, cottage cheese with pineapple or peaches (again, sodium is a killer, so go for a single serving). Almond butter on a banana, or on a toasted sandwich thin = yumminess, too!

    I like almonds or dry roasted edamame. I can keep them in my desk just in case I forget food! And they are delicious.

    I bring nuts, cheese sandwiches (I add turkey, but for meatless), kashi crackers (can be pricey but they really help keep me full), protein bars (not as cheap), and greek yogurt (can be especially cheap if you get it on sale. also berries like someone said, because I find they take me a while to eat because of the tartness.
