What are you snacking on??

i am planning on some hummus and baby carrots this afternoon and am about to slice into an apple to share w my preschooler

I had a 1/4 cup of raisins earlier but I am hungry again and I am having a honey crisp apple. I love these apples! Yum!

Fresh pineapple and light string cheese... MMMmmmmm! :happy:

Cashews (half a serving is about a handful)
Popcorn (2.5-3 cups for about 130)
1/3 bar dark dairy free choocolate (160)
Banana and or apple with cinamon sprinkled on it (yuuuum)
Pumpkin muffin (made with box spice cake mix and canned pumpkin, each muffin is 89 cals!)
Salt and vinegar baked chips (like baked lays but by archer farms Target)

Roasted garlic hummus and crackers...I bought the 100 calorie right bites...veggies (heard different things on the veggies...some say they are unlimited and you can eat as much as you want)...pop corn is a good snack!

MmmMmmMMMmm my local grocier has all kinds of diffeent flavored Hummus, I really like the Jalapeno one and sun-dried Tomatoe, I'll eat it usually with carrots, and/or carrots and ranch. Celery and P/b is one of my faves usually after a workout, also good for after a workout Banana and p/b yummmm. String cheese, Wheat Thins with Jalapenos or Wheat Thins w/ a Laughing Cow Cheese wedge, a couple rolled up slices of turkey, BabyBell cheese, Celery is also good with Laughing Cow Cheese, hard boiled eggs, or 2eggs sliced up and made into egg salad, I could go on and on. Hope that helps a little...:happy:

I like to take a Flatout light and smear a wedge of laughing cow cheese on it then fill it with lettuce. Comes to about 120 calories and it fills you right up.

Veggies. I think the crunch it makes and the added effort it takes to eat them makes them more satisfying. In addition, they are low in calories - so I can eat a lot more broccoli, carrots or celery than other foods. I know, I know, it's not the tastiest of snacks, but it helps hold me over until my next meal!

What I like to snack on:

Quaker rice cake: white cheddar spread with hummus or a laughing cow light cheese wedge (any flavor!) (80-100 cal)
Quaker rice cake: caramel corn spread with a serving of chocolate PB2 (OMFG!) (95 cal)
A laughing cow cheese wedge or hummus spread on a sesame rye flat (80-100 cal)
apples (appx 70 cal)
baby carrots (so little calories!)
Fiber One Bars (oats & chocolate!!!!) (140 cal I think)
little packs of the Quaker mini rice cakes (the chocolate drizzle, mint chocolate and caramel...oooohhhh caramel!) (90 cal)
100 calorie packs of little cookies
light string cheese (60 cal)
light n fit yogurt or the light activia (70 calories in the key lime and vanilla)
a bowlful of cherry tomatoes (I got the last bunch from my garden last night) (so little calories)
weight watchers dark chocolate raspberry bars (80 cal I think)

Just to name a few....lol I usually have two of those a day. :-)

I buy a ton of fresh veggies on Sunday, cut them all up and put them in a big bowl so I can "snack" before dinner. Other than that, I am a big fan of the FiberOne or FiberPlus bars, bananas or apples with peanut butter, almonds, rice cakes, raisins, string cheese and if I am really in a bind (trying to eat small 6x a day) I will grab a 100 calorie pack.

I have got to have a snack before bed ... usually it is a 'TLC' cookie (140 cals) with 4oz of s milk (45 cals); once in a while 4oz of wine.
good luck

OK...I have GOT to get to my work but...I love those little things that the brand FAGE has of greek yogurt with the fruit section on the side. They run from 130-180 cals and make you feel like you're having dessert. The other thing that helps me with hunger pangs is something that might sound gross to some, but here goes. AIM has a product called Herbal Fiber Blend that is to keep your gut cleaned out. When you combine 1 or 2 TB of that with a scoop ot AIM Fit & Fiber, you get the digestive system benefits, cover the bad taste of the Fiberblend, and get the full feeling of the Fit & Fiber. It keeps me full surprisingly long and gets me through the "irrational hungries" all for 50-70 cals! :noway:

Some of my snacks include yogurt, fruit to go, string cheese, an apple a day, laughing cow cheese and some sort of veggie (Carrots or celery), fruit, garlic hummus, low fat ice cream (I CANNOT give up ice cream lol), hard boiled eggs are good too, oh and cottage cheese. I could go on and on! I'm on a low g.i. diet so I have to do a lot of snacking to keep the blood sugars even :bigsmile:
