Mine is lunchables Jr. Turkey, Mozzarella+Mini Ritz. It has for the whole container 260 calories, 18 g protein an 18 carbs. I get my salt fix and protein in one snack and its separate into 2 so if I eat the whole thing I'm still on point for the day. If I couldn't have this I wouldn't make it! LoL!

    I've started to become addicted to apples and peanut butter. Fruit and protein! Except I can't use as much peanut butter as I would like :sad: I would eat the whole jar if I could but at least a little bit is better than none, right?

    Peanut butter and apples
    1/2 oz Dubliner cheese + 1/2 oz walnuts = yum (and keeps me full)
    ...and recently, a handful of cherry tomatoes from our garden, usually along with a little cheese or something else salty...out-of-this-world yummy!

    I have recently discovered hummus...I like the rosted red pepper with special K Multi-grain cracker...The crackers are kinda sweet and the hummus is salty....The only thing is I have to pack it in my lunch or I will eat the whole container of hummus.

    celery with laughing cow light, but last night I had a wedge of it with some red seedless grapes. Now that was an amazing combination! I'll have to do that one again.

    If you have access to Costco, try the Tribes hummus in snacker packs. 100 calories per pack. 16 per box. Less than $5.

    I need snacks that take a long time to eat, so that I feel like I've had more. I love apples and mini-bags of fat-free popcorm (Orville makes the best Kettle Korn ones). They take a while to eat and they satisfy my cravings!

    Almonds. Easy to eat, not messy, and I know they help me reach my fiber & protein goals and give me healthy fats I need to keep my heart in good shape and help me lose weight.

    If it's like a craving of I need to feel full, then it's lettuce - chewed really well - it's full of water, it's got natural fiber and it helps me poop! Plus I like the taste of it when it's chewed (greener outer leaves-the closer to the center the more bitter/tangy they tend to be around here)
    If it's just I need something to snack on to take the edge off before the next meal while it's being planned out or in the processes of baking/cooking, then it's usually 6 raw whole almonds.
    If it's I need cold and sweet - Fruit Chillers Freezable Tubes (not the cups) Grape Berry Blast
    If it's gimme the sweet and creamy! it's yoplus blackberry pomegranate yogurt - which is a lot better than the ice cream or dip I used to reach for.

    Sometimes if I'm craving chocolate I'll have a glass of OJ, know it sounds weird but something about OJ or an orange staves off the chocolate craving for me.
