    The new ruffles baked chips are good .... Just leave yourself the calories for 1 serving which is about 1/4 of the bag and make sure you portion it out first or if you are like me you will eat the while bag.

    looking for alternative to potato chips is not 'just' a calorie issue for me. I can always work that in. My biggest issue is the sodium load and the fact that somehow eating (even a small bag) of potato chips usually unleashes the munchie-monster. As long as I have other crunchy options I really don't feel deprived.....just my experience/opinion

    I personally would just eat the chips! Just get a small serving bag, and enjoy :)

    I make Kale Chips in the oven. I flavor with bbq seasonings, Onion powder or garlic powder and then dip in yoghurt.

    Less chips. everything in moderation :) I personally don't like chips that much. I'll eat them sometimes if they're available, but I wouldn't necessarily purchase them.

    I get 1700 calories a day, and generally have plenty to spare. Its not chip fear also from one of the other posters there, its more the "munchies monster" buying a single serving would be like getting a meal catered for myself only and leaving my boyfriend with Kraftdinner (which is so tasty) I would have to buy a jumbo bag of chips so my boyfriend and his dad could have some and that would leave me with far too many chips in my surrounding area lol. Eating them would be a disappointment to myself, I've changed my diet almost completely for this weight loss challenge I am on and I don't want to go back on a choice I made for myself. I've cut almost ALL the added salt from my diet and I don't want to start that all over again

    Are you planning to give up chips for the rest of your life?

    I've given up chips completely for the past two months (my favorite snack before I went Paleo was Tortilla Chips and Hummus). I've heard many people like Plantain chips.

    For something different try Kale chips.

    Cup up some kale (leafy part) into 2" strips, put on a oven sheet (aluminum foil, helpful) and drizzle olive oil and sea salt (I sometimes do it with paprika), back until crispy. Very tasty and a very healthy fat that will keep your satisfied until your next proper meal.

    i concur! everything in moderation. eat the most delicious chips you crave the most and love every bite! things taste so much better when you don't have them as often. (example: i went to tacobell for the first time in maybe a year last night... it was like food of the gods)
