    My favorite recently has been a serving of Wheat Thins with a wedge of Laughing Cow cheese (Ranch Wheat Thins and Creamy Swiss cheese wedge - yummmy).

    Or try a protein bar. Stay away from the granola bars, but the protein bars generally have about 200 cals and 8-10 gms of protein.


    And by the way - the 100-cal packs of Oreos don't have any cream in them, just the chocolate wafers. WTF?! How can you call them Oreos?!

    You could try Fiber One 90 calorie cakes/brownies/bars.
    They taste good, come in many different flavors, and are low calorie.

    What exactly is "bad" about Oreos and ice cream sandwiches? Cite your sources, please.

    trying to stay under 200 calories. 3 oreos are about 150. 6 oreos are 'bout tree fiddy.......

    Then stop at 3.

    For a healthy snack that will feel like a cheat:

    Slice up an apple

    Spread PB thinly on top

    Sprinkle with what you like. Some ideas: chopped walnuts or almonds, dark chocolate chips, shredded coconut.

    This

    If I want a sweet snack then I might have something along the lines of 2 Oreos (small bwl of ice cream, handful of potato chips) . I can surely arrange my calories and macros to allow for a small treat once a week. Maybe the problem lies not in the Oreos but in consuming more than a reasonable amount.


    Yes. I dont see myself eating three Oreos. Playing with fire..................

    BWHAHAHAHA, what is this nonsense about eating 3 oreos? That is like suggesting I drink one glass of wine, its not going to happen. Its the whole sleeve or nothing, just like its the whole bottle, then more 4 beers.........

    Honestly, if you're at the point that you don't even ask for a cheat day or meal, have whatever you want to have as cheat snack. I don't think you could do much harm. I can hardly think at any snack that could be considered "cheat" and "healthy" all at once.

    Doesn't have to be healthy. I just want something tasty, sweet, and filling under 200 calories.

    one serving of Turkey Hill light i slike 110 calories.

    If the oreo's are 'better' than the so called 'healthy' snacks- just eat them.

    seriously- it's a cheat 'snack' which means it doesn't fit into your budget- or plan- so why worry about the 200.

    Just eat the damn oreos. LOL
