Every evening the potato chips are calling my name and I answer. Please help me find another food to substitute with, it seems like I crave the salt and crunch.

We buy Pop Chips in the 100-calorie bags. Having them pre-measured for portion control is a great thing.0

Ice cream over chips any day! lol0 -
There is no substitute, but instead of chips I'm currently munching bright green olives from the salad bar.. it satisfies the fat & salt and eating around the pit is fun.0

Funny, I give my chips names and give them personalities. You'd think it would make them harder to eat, but it turns out mass murder is part of who I am.0

Kale chips are crunchy, tasty, and nutrient-rich. Much fewer calories than potato chips.0

Get them out of the house--throw them away!
If the voice in your head is telling you not to waste food, remind yourself regardless of whether they're in the garbage or in your body--they're still going to waste.0 -
100 calorie microwave popcorn. There are several brands and flavors to chose from. Even if you "go crazy" and have 2 it is still only 200 calories. :happy:0

Special k chips cheddar flavored are my favorite only 110 calories a serving or 100 calories bag of popcorn.0

Handful of wasabi peas! 1/3 cup (a lot of them) gets you a good crunch and the salt fix for about 120 (give or take 10, can't remember) calories. The heat from the wasabi also helps curb the ongoing craving.
Otherwise, get the chips that are tempting you OUT of your house. If they aren't there, you can't eat them. I no longer buy wheat thins for this very reason.0 -
I like snap pea crisps0

Instead of chips try roasted almonds or sunflower seeds.0

Don't give in. The craving will pass. Be strong! Distract yourself. Drink some water and go for a walk and get away from the house and any temptation. You can do this! Stay strong.0

The Popsecret Homestyle is only about 140 calories for the regular size and you get a better deal money wise.0 -
