Dry cereal (healthy choices of course)
Carrot sticks
Apples
Grapes (my favorite)
Homemade bread (allrecipies.com has some good ones)
dry roasted low salt peanuts (Almonds are better)
There are lots of choices just depends on what you want .. remember read packages0 -
Not exactly low sugar...but I love just putting random stuff into a bowl of yogurt. Cereal, blueberries, goji berries, nuts, crushed crackers, cheese! Mmm. Everything tastes good in yogurt!0
-
I love to have a half a cup of red grapes with one thing of string cheese.0
-
Anything dipped in hummus. YUM.
I also like to cut some bell pepper strips and use them in lieu of chips to dip in fresh salsa.
And, it's summer - you can't forget about all the delicious fruit there is to choose from right now.0 -
A cup of plain cheerios is only 100 calories and gives me that satisfying "crunch" that I crave.
Tonight, I made my own tortilla chips for the first time. I cut two Mi Casita corn tortillas into 8ths, sprayed them with a little Pam, and baked them for 5 minutes. I had 16 chips for only 80 calories plus 10 calories of salsa!
For sweet, I like frozen grapes.0 -

I politely disagree. One should eat 5-6 small meals per day to keep their metabolism up and running high!0 -
I politely call BS ...meal timing has nothing to do with metabolism ..you can eat one meal, six meals, 24 meals spaced out at one hour intervals, or four meals, and the impact on metabolism is zero....
if you at 1200 calories in six meals, or 1200 calories in one meal it is the same metabolic benefit...0
