What are your MUST have's

Options
I have a friend that has recently lost 75 pounds and she said that one of her must have's is PB2 (the powdered peanut butter). I'm going to go to Walmart this weekend and get some to try! Just wondering what is everyone's MUST have's????? I love Greek Yogurt so that is my must have!

    Greek yogurt, chicken breasts, eggs, light cheese, green tea (not for weight loss, but because I like it, lol).

    Food - most importantly food I like.

    PB2 is not one of those - just give me peanut butter!

    I love Pb2 to add to my chocolate protein shakes because they're already high in calorie, but for everything else I'd use real peanut butter.
    Dark chocolate, every few weeks I up the percent a little (I get anything from 72-80 now.)
    Crystal light. I hate the taste of filtered water, I'm on a migraine medication that makes it taste like metal.
    Yoghurt (whatever you like, greek has more protein but I don't like the taste unless it's in my protein shake)
    Nuts (pistachios and almonds.)
    Frozen spinach to throw in sauces and protein shakes.
    Pure protein shakes that come in a bottle for on-the-go, only 120 calories for 23 grams of protein. Pretty expensive though.
    Bananas!
    Cheese sticks.

    There are a lot here, but I've been finding these meal hacks completely necessary!

    - Greek yogurt. Love the Trader Joe's varieties, especially the vanilla bean and raspberry.
    - Almond Milk.
    - Laughing Cow cheese for rice cakes and sandwiches. I like the bleu cheese because it has the most flavor.
    - Any variety of sandwich slims -- these are usually around 90 - 100 calories each, cutting the typical bread calories in a sandwich in half. This way you can have more of the good stuff and feel full without using up too many carbs.
    - Bananas. I'm usually running out the door in the morning so I need to scarf one of these down to get something in my stomach & get my metabolism moving.
    - Trader Joe's Reduced Guilt Kale & Spinach Dip. This is 30 calories for 2 teaspoons and is perfect for a spread on so many things! Plus you get some veggies and protein in.
    - Spinach. There always needs to be spinach in my fridge. Quick salad, quick and easy sauteed side dish, topping on sandwiches, it works for everything.
