Air popped pop corn with some drizzled melted butter! 1.5 C of the popcorn is only 80 cal, then I add butter to taste/calories. I'll add salt if the butter is unsalted. I had that tonight for a total of 200 calories and it was very satisfying.
Sometimes I'll do jello with some cool whip - not very healthy, but it feels like a treat.
I also keep low-fat ice cream in the freezer that is 110 calories per cup, and a cup of ice cream feels so rich. I have to remind myself that after the 3rd bite, it will taste all the same to my taste buds, so less is actually more in taste.
I used to totally ruin my days with lots of chocolate prior to bed. I like to end the night on a sweet note!0 -
small apple and pb, or wheat toast with sugar free jelly.0

i'm not a late snack eating type since my dinners are usually around 8-9pm. I do however will snack on pop corn, dark chocolate (filled squares or not) or whatever dessert may occasionally be in the fridge...pumpkin pie, etc
All within limit of course0 -
rice cake and peanut butter...i havent tried the pb2 yet, but i believe there are 45 calories in 2 tbsp. for an apple cinnamon rice cake it's 50 calories.0

Sometimes if I'm actually hungry I'll have a protein bar or greek yogurt (if I need help reaching my protein gram goal). If I just want something sweet, I'll have some Sugar Cookie tea or sugar free hot chocolate and a cookie or two. Or frozen yogurt, if I'm not freezing cold. (I get cold a lot now without all that fat to insulate me.)
It really depends on how many calories I have left for the day and whether or not I've eaten enough protein already.0 -
These are all great tips! I really must try the pb2 since I am always over on sugar because of my fruit.( and cookies and junk!lol)0
