Sometimes you just want to throw somethig in your mouth! What do you do?

I use dried unsweetened apples, puffed wheat, puffed rice.

Your suggestions?

    My snacks have consisted of yogurt, baked chips, or an hard boiled egg... went all out today and had a Clif bar. So, only one snack today...lol. Would love some suggestions though.

    If it's that I'm just feeling snackish and not really hungry, I usually cut up a large carrot into sticks and that satisfies my need to chew on something. But carrots don't fulfill cravings or hunger pangs.

    an apple a day......it just works for me!!!! I eat it with a handful of raw almonds or peanut butter (natural that is)
    i also keep cut up celery and broccoli on hand, when I am really hungry I go for that with hummus as a dip

    Popcorn. take a long time to eat and you can air-pop - which gives you room to add as you please!:wink:

    You should include some quality protein at each snack time - vegetables and fruit are great, combined with some protein, will ensure you don't feel hungry as soon as you've finished eating.

    Eat some carrot/celery sticks with:

    90g tin of tuna OR

    Cottage cheese OR

    Hard boiled egg OR

    Grilled chicken breast
