    I second the string cheese idea.

    Also:
    Weight Watchers vanilla yogurt (best yogurt I've ever had!)
    sugar free rice pudding, can add a dollop of light cool whip
    1/2 cup of hot milk with sugar free vanilla syrup, a little splenda, some cinnamon
    POPCORN!
    whole wheat toast with spray butter and sugar free preservatives, or sprinkle some splenda & cinnamon
    mini bagel with spray butter or whipped cream cheese

    Can you tell I snack A LOT! :bigsmile: There are times when my snack "meal" is way more calories than any of the "traditional" meals!

    Fiber One bars are really good, and so is slow churned Edy's and Bryer's icecream!

    Ohhh I have yet to see the WW cookies! I'll look for them this week!

    I love the dark chocolate raspberry Jell-O cups they're really great for chocolate fixes and low cal! Also Rice pudding creme brulee cups, they're tasty and 70 cals!
  • Hummus, carrot stick, cherry tomatoes and ritz type crackers :smile:
  • Laughing cow cheese wedge w/

    100 calorie pack Toasted wheat thins!

    Best 135 calories ever "spent" :laugh:
  • The Peanut butter is good, but I just tried the Better n Butter that I first saw on this site and I think it is pretty good and great way to save some calories. My daughter isn't found of it, but if you are cutting out a lot of stuff because of calories, I think it is worth a try. I found it at a Super Target (Apparently the main spot to find) but if you go on a web site for them, they tell you were they are available. I really did kind of like it, but then I like the fiber bars also, so if you like those, you should like the better N butter also. If you need the web site, I am sure someone here knows and you can just post the question for it.

    I am a muncher... I really like my chips and bad snacks. I've been behaving myself with Gardetto's Reduced Fat.

    Not the greatest choice out there, but it satisfies my salty craving as long as I stick to 1 serving. As soon as I buy a bag I take out my measuring cup and ziploc bags and preportion them and just take 1 ziploc out of the snack cupboard. It works on days where I am just tired of fruit and veggies, or just really really really want a salty snack.

    Great idea! I just discovered the laughing cow cheese and oh my gosh...I love it. Yummo!
    I hate low fat cheese slices, they all taste like a tire (not that I have ever tasted a tire, but you catch my drift). Laughing cow is a great alternative.

    You could also try a toasted Thomas Light Multigrain Muffin with one tablespoon of sugar free preserves....only 110 calories
