    Today I discovered Quest protein bars... only 160 calories, fill you up, AND 20 g of protein. helllllooooooooo :)

    not to mention delicious
  • granola bar 1/4 of whole piece, 1 marshmallow, 3 chocolate chips = 100 calorie smore :)
    whole wheat crackers 5, and happy farms, or skinny cow spreadable cheese 1= 95 calories
    SF pudding frozen into freezer pop made with ff milk = 25 calories I can eat these all day when it's hot!

    A 1 oz. hunk of good sharp cheddar cheese and a sliced apple
    Bell pepper slices, celery, green onions, carrots with hummus
    A glass of red wine with a little plate of olives and Parmesan shavings
    A bowl of vegetable soup with crackers

    Edit: So many good ideas here!

    Oh I love this! I'm in a snack rut so this was perfect.

    Currently love:
    100 calorie popcorn + light string cheese
    Cherry tomatoes + bleu cheese dressing
    Fruitare frozen fruit pops, the black cherry is delicious!
    Peach Greek yogurt
    No sugar added hot chocolate

    I like to cap my snacks off at 150 calories so sometimes I'll mix and match or eat two :)

    Popcorn!! Most people use microwave popcorn and if you get the right kind (low fat,very little butter) you can have A TON with very little calories! I just had an entire bag...filled my belly for 40 calories! They also have a ton of 0 calorie popcorn flavoring (mostly powder)....I hadn't had popcorn in a while and once I saw how filling and guilt free it was, I think it's going to be my new favorite "binge" snack (for when you feel like you just want to stuff your face)

    Cheerios.

    Yes! I love plain dry cheerios. My list for snacks:

    Carbs
    Dry Plain Cheerios
    Plain or Butter Flavored Rice Cakes
    No butter popcorn (0.5g of fat per serving)
    Veggies (celery/cucumbers/carrots etc)
    Dill Pickles (3 calories per)

    Fat
    No such thing as "low calorie" fat snacks


    Protein
    Beef Jerky
    Quest Bars


    That's all I can think of off the top of my head which really sucks because I snack all the time.

    My current favorite is a smoothie made with frozen fruit and unsweetened almond milk. Sometimes I add plain greek yogurt, almonds, or spinach too.

    Lately, strawberry cheesecake Greek yogurt with graham cracker Goldfish, sugar snap peas with dill yogurt dressing and mock soft serve ice cream with almond milk and protein powder.
  • Carrots and hummus are really good together
    slightly heated apples with cinnamon.
    Sugar free jelly topped with your fave fruits.
    Or just some low fat yoghurt!

    Fat
    No such thing as "low calorie" fat snacks

    Half of a raw avocado has less calories than many of the people in this thread's "low calorie snacks". Add to it thin slices of deli meat, or a boiled egg, sprinkle the whole business with sea salt and pepper, and you've got yourself a delicious, high fat snack.

    Apples dipped in yogurt
    A banana
    A small box of raisins
    Fiber One brownies satisfy my sweet tooth
    Jello (sugarfree is often only 5 calories!)
    Pretzels are surprisingly low cal and I love them.
    Am I the only weirdo that thinks of cucumbers as a snack? Yum.
    Ants on a log (celery with peanut butter spread on it and raisins on top. PB may be high cal, but it's very filling, I find)
    And when you want to splurge.. often times, certain cookeis are about 50 calories a piece. ;)

    Most of my snacks are about 200 calories and I like to include a fat/protein/carb component to each one:

    fingerling banana (they're really small, like half a small banana) split in 1/2 with a tsp of almond butter spread on each half (2tsp total) and a liberte 0% m.f. greek yogurt cup (100g)

    cucumbers, a few carrots, and a couple tablespoons of hummus plus an ounce of full fat cheese or 2.5 oz of 7% m.f. cheddar cheese

    a little protein shake (depends on if you use protein powder/what brand) but protein powder, 1/2 cup of berries, water, ice, and either a tsp of flax oil or tbsp of ground flax seeds

    roasted soy nuts! they have pretty good ratio of carbs:fat:protein all on their own and you can portion them out ahead of time into snack bags

    Pinata apple (the best) with 1 T Jif Crunchy PB.




    Jazz apples are pretty good too!

    Honey crisps are mighty fine too - been my salvation more than once. String cheese and baby bell cheese both also good. Celery and carrots in place of crackers/bread makes wine tasting much less treacherous (plus I like them).

    Fiber One 90 calorie brownie

    Whipped Yogurt (chocolate, strawberry, yum!)

    Fresh spinach, sauteed (no butter or oil or any of that) with a table spoon of CJ Korean BBQ Original. Seriously, a huge helping of that is less calories than even the brownie! So definitely a perfect snack. Tastes amazing, filling, and under 100 calories.
