Afternoon snacker needs help!

Veggies (celery, carrots, grape tomatoes, bell peppers) with prepared hummus or FF sour cream/greek yogurt with dried dill and garlic mixed in
Light string cheese
FF Pringles (SALTY!)
World Gourmet Veggie straws (SALTY!)
Rice cakes (plain with some PB2 spread on) or the sweetened ones
Dry cereal (lasts a long time if you eat a few pieces at a time)
FF yogurt or Greek yogurt
FF cottage cheese
Natural apple sauce
Cut up fruit (right now on a huge melon kick)
Cut apple or strawberries with cool whip free
Cereal bars (special K / Fiber One)
Skinny Cow chocolate clusters or chocolate bars
FF/SF Jell-O instant pudding
Raw or dry roasted almonds

You could try an exotic fruit that you've never tried before - it makes snacking kind of fun.


With fruits and veggies it makes it MUCH easier if you have everything cut up ahead of time and stored in a Tupperware.
Also, I agree with PP about logging as much as possible, then figuring out how much room you have left for snacking. It makes it easier to stay within calories.

I do cut up veggies....cucumbers, red peppers.
I also try to get in a protein with my snack; Baby Bell Light cheese, or almonds.
I use the prepackaged nut mix because then I won't go over in my portions!

I cut up a lot of veggies on the weekend and it becomes my "go to food" for that afternoon snack.

Hope this helps!

peanut butter with apple slices
carrot sticks with light laughing cow cheese (only 35 calories nom nom nom)
protein shake/protein bar
nuts
dried fruit if you need sugar lol

sugar free jelly - under 10 calories

caxton Pink and white wafers - under 50 cal

pink panther wafers - under 43 cal



or my best idea yet........................................................ get a empty drinks bottle and fill with some sugar free squash and water. put in freezer over night and take to work in the morning, eating ice is no calories and you will have it most of the day any time you get tempted to snack !! it is fun to see how much ice you can get out of a small lid, it is fun trust me xx

-Cottage cheese with bits of fruit (dried or fresh) and raisins. Can also pour a bit of lemonade(no sugar) on top and stir it in. Yummy!

-Chop up a lot of fresh vegetables, and put them in a bowl of cold water. Can also add some slices of cheese, but not too many.

-Fruit salad! Apple, banana, dragonfruit, kiwis, clementines.. and squeeze some lemon or lime on top!

Curbing the snack attack is important to avoid overeating in the evening. I try to keep snacks under 300 calories and like Greek yogurt, fresh fruit, naked pita chips and hummus are a favorite when I need something crunchy.

Mine would definitely have to be : Cottage cheese with a drizzle of honey, boiled eggs and boiled egg whites, Laughing cow cheese wedge with a rice cake, Protein shake (try dashing dish for great milkshake tasting recipes but low cals!!), apple with a Tablespoon of almond butter or natural peanut butter, Greek yogurt with some healthy nuts and a bit of coconut, a big grapefruit, or just try having smaller meals more often so you still get to eat with your family however you will just eat less. Good luck!! Oh yeah also try water your stomach doesn't know the difference don't even think about it just chug two big glasses down with a tablespoon of Chia seeds and wait 10 minutes to see if your still hunger this usually does it for me!!
