Any ideas...? What does everyone else snack on?

    My go-to's are:

    1/2 a granny smith apple and a baby bell gouda round (or a baby bell light)
    100 calorie bag of popcorn
    Vitatop muffin (chocolate or blueberry) and coffee with creamer
    emerald 100 calorie pack of cocoa roast almonds

    Quaker Rice Cakes are good. I usually get the mini ones....in chocolate of course!! Fruit like bananas and apples are always an easy snack too.

    When I PMS I crave salt. Snyder's mini pretzels seem to do the trick. 110 calories for 20 pieces. Or triscuits or wheat thins with a low fat laughing cow wedge.

    I'm also a big fan of hard boiled eggs and string cheese. Both seem to keep the hunger away better than the carb type snacks listed above..

    And you can top the 60 cal jello snacks with 1 tbsp of cool whip (which is considered half a serving of cool whip) -- even better.

    Chocolate milk...it is actually made with 1% milk and you get all the other benefits of regular milk in a tasty drink!

    If you freeze the jello pudding packs and then defrost for just a few seconds in the microwave, it is better than ice cream....okay maybe not better but pretty darn good! I also find they are more filling and satisfying when frozen.
