Good tips for snacks

I find it quite easy to stick to my diet when I'm eating meals, but often get hungry in between. Does anyone have any good tips for snacks? I work 9 hours a day sat at a desk, so I try to drink as much water as I can, but it doesn't keep away the hunger.

Any tips would be much appreciated!

    Don't snack, eat smaller meals more frequently.

    I think veggies and a great dip make a really good snack. If you could keep some celery and carrots at your desk with a little container of hummus, that would be nice.

    I also really like string cheese or nuts with a piece of fruit. The key to a filling snack is having protein with it!
    Good luck!

    I'm usually OK after an apple and a bottle of water. Maybe a banana if I'm more hungry.

    Frozen raspberries. They are cheaper than fresh and taste WONDERFUL

    What's the difference?

    Chips and salsa
    Fruit
    Vegetables with dip
    Cheese and crackers
    Small salad

    All of the above are good. But be careful of fruits. Higher in sugars and calories and usually less filling than veggies.
