Okay, so I have my meals planned out and im measuring everything! But my recent snack is Chex Mix which wouldnt be so bad if it werent for the sodium :noway: !

So im asking around, who knows of any simple take and eat as you go snacks? I found a good receipe for broccoli bites and they are good but not really a snack on the go i would really rather not cook the snack but cooked snack ideas are welcome.

PLEASE ANY IDEA'S PLEASE!?!?!

    You can still do chex mix just make it yourself so that you can control the sodium.

    Roast a bunch of almonds yourself without salt (or by roasted - no salt almonds). You can also roast them with a little honey on them if you like. Delicious.

    If you like Chex mix, maybe just a baggie of the cereal to go? Cut out the sodium. You can add your own spices if you want.

    I have snacks for whatever I am craving:
    fruit
    almond butter on celery
    pistachios
    jerky-protein/salty/savory
    hershey minis if I must have chocolate

    sometimes, a little happy hour snack for me is a bloody mary, with a pickle and celery, it's not too bad calorie-wise

    Almost all fruits ar portable and easy to eat. Grapes, cut up apple, banana, or even if you peel an orange ahead of time you can slip it in a baggie. Als veggies are great! Also they don't raise your insulin levels as much. Carrot stick, celery, broccoli, califlower, asparagus, and many more. I try to eat stuff that is not processed. It is better for your body. Good luck!
