    My staple lately is an d'anjou pear topped with chunky peanut butter and mini choc chips. The lot of it's under 300 cals and soo filling.

    Cheeses strings are the bomb :) Full of protein but low in cal :) 50 cal for each and 7 g of protein ;) choose the light one ;)

    I really like putting cinnamon on my cottage cheese, and pairing it with a slice of peanut butter toast. :D

    I like cottage cheese with cinnamon and a little Torani Vanilla Sugar Free Syrup or Splenda. Sometimes I also chop up an apple or pear to put in it, and sometimes some crushed almonds (or a combo of all).

    I also really love Sugar Snap Peas or red, yellow and orange peppers.

    Today a coworker brought chips and homemade salsa to share, and I ended up eating some salsa with my celery sticks, which was really good (and far healthier than chips).

    I also like to eat string cheese with almonds.

    frozen banana......when I want to feel like I've had ice cream, I slice up a banana (reg or frozen), sprinkle a few mini choc chips and top with vanilla yogurt or a squirt of whipped cream.

    i make little flapjacks out of protein powder and eggs and schmear on about 1 tbsp of peanut butter (about 1/2 a regular serving) or strained unsweetened greek yogurt. mmmmmmm

    i also do a half and half blend of peanut butter and tahini (sesame paste) to cut fat. use that on celery sticks instead of straight peanut butter.

    I'm not a huge snacker but my new favorite is like a fruit/yogurt parfit. I just mix together sliced bananas, blackberries, sliced strawberries and one plain vanilla yogurt (I like danon light & fit). So good. I also like toast with a little peanut butter and sometimes add sliced banana. :)

    Just discovered this one last night, steamed edamame with Hidden Valley ranch seasoning mixed in. 5 calories for half a tsp. Only used 1.5 tsp. Great snack!

    Homemade fruit salad
    made with following:-

    Ripe dark plums
    White plums
    Strawberries
    Passionfruit pulp ( i use tinned when out of season)
    Pears ( i use tinned in juice if not ripe)
    Apricots (again tinned in juice if not in season)
    Rock Melon
    Mango - tinned and fresh sliced

    I always have a big tub of this in my fridge - made every weekend

    1 cup - around 110 calories plus 2 desertspoons of full fat rich and creamy yoghurt ( if its a snack enjoy it)

    I also have this most mornings on top of my cereal and this keeps me good for the morning

    Enjoy.....
