    my current "healthy" version of what used to be an indulgence for me:

    low cal, low carb, high protein plain bagel + 1 tbsp of regular cream cheese + a few capers + a slice of tomato + a few bits of red onion + some lox (great for protein and low in calories) layered on top = BLISS! (and the way I make it, the entire meal is only about 300 calories and very filling!)

    I also like Weight Watchers microwave popcorn

    And my staple snacks (currently) are string cheese, yogurt and sugar free pudding

    I was also thrilled to discover that approx 7 slices of turkey lunch meat (or ham) is barely 70 calories and 8 gram of protein, so sometimes I forego the bread altogether and just wrap the lunch meat in a slice of swiss cheese and eat my "deli roll up"

    Almonds ~ their crunch is amazing...a handful is so satifying & give the jaw a real workout!

    Lettuce ~ wrapped around most anything...another cruncher! (no iceberg, pls)

    I love greek yogurt! I use it plain as a substitute for sour cream, or with honey or fruit as a desert/snack!
    I love the slim a bear ice cream sandwiches - only 100 calories and pretty big!
    I love trader joes kettle corn - they make it in single serving bags and one (pretty good sized) bag has only 120 calories and its VERY satisfying! (couldn't fint it this time though...:sad: )

    I love fresh fruits. I usually buy 2 of the containers they sell at our commissary of already cut up/mixed fresh fruit. It has strawberries, cantalope, honey dew, pineapple and grapes.

    Raw veggies like carrots, broccoli, celery, bell peppers

    Steamed veggies

    I love love love nuts but I can not and probably never will be able to eat them in moderation. How can someone eat only 5 almonds for a snack?!

    I make my own smoothies: 1/2 frozen banana, 1/2 cup Greek yogurt, 1 packet Truvia, frozen/raw mixed berries, a little milk or water to loosen it up as needed. That's it and it makes a big smoothie! Very satisfying snack.

    I also love laughing cow, baby carrots, light high fiber english muffins, and Luna bars, frozen bags of veggies. All the other healthy foods I love are boring because I am for REAL food not FAKE food! :)
