    I like to eat Popsicles for a snack. I like them because they are low calories (as low as 40 calories), they taste yummy, and they take a long time to eat making it feel like I am eating more. Plus it's a snack I don't mind sharing with my daughter because they are cheap!

    I enjoy eating grapefruit when I'm wanting something sweet---or I often make a chocolate/peanut butter protein shake (with extra ice so it's like a milk shake) yuuummmmm!

    FRUIT. specifically the high fiber stuff because it usually means less sugar and cals. raspberries, strawberries, and apricots are my go-to. once youre used to not eating so much crap fruit becomes SUPER SWEET to the senses.

    dove dark chocolate (only 42 calories per piece) also any 100 calorie snacks work out great too.

    Defrost a few frozen raspberries, they go all mushy, mix into Fage Greek yogur to make it raspberry flavoured, sprinkle some grape nuts on top for texture and crunch. Sweet, delicious, great macros and protein so it actually fills you up. I have it for breakfast some days to. Can't get enough of it!

    Zara

    Yum - DON'T defrost ..raspberries will break apart easily.... just add them to greek yogurt & stir .... this is kind of like soft serve ice cream.

    Vanilla greek with PB2 (powdered peanut butter) and 1 Tbl. grapenuts. Crunchy and nutty.

    Kashi Honey Almond Flax granola bars

    Skinny Cow frozen yogurt products, great for portion control. Menchies for a treat ouside of the house, do not use the toppings! I also like to bake Banana chocolate chip muffins using Greek yogurt.

    Strawberries dipped in a little Nutella
    Dry rolled oats mixed with peanut butter and a little maple syrup
    Wholemeal toast with honey
    Cocoa roast almonds
    I haven't had one in a while but since you mentioned it, those Kashi cookies are pretty tasty!

    I also eat candy, cookies, ice cream sandwiches, and other treats occasionally but, while I don't consider them unhealthy, I don't really consider them "healthy" either (except from a psychological perspective)

    I keep it simple...

    Nutrigrain Bar...which ever flavor.

    I tend to eat one right after lunch to kill the sweet cravings and it really helps. I also snack on quaker oats oatmeal squares.

    That helps as well.

    Hope this helps!

    love think thin protein bars from Krogers or Sams. Also strawberries and my 10 calorie jello and fat free cool whip. I was going to say carrots but that is what I snack on,not a sweet though.

    Microwave baked pear:

    one pear, halved and cored
    brown sugar
    honey
    cinnamon
    butter substitute (optional)

    Place halved peares in microwave safe glass bowl or pyrex with core facing up. Mix cinnamon and brown sugar. sprinkle mixture over pears and drizzle honey over the mixture. Microwave for 4-5 minutes checking every 30 seconds or so for softness. With the leftover dripping in the bowl you can reduce it in a pan on the stove to make a sauce. For an extra treat you can have them with a bit of vanilla ice cream or yogurt. (low cal/fat of course)
