    I have the same afternoon snack every day M-F at around 3PM. A Dannon Light & Fit Greek yogurt, light string cheese, and a hard-boiled egg. Yummy protein awesomeness.

    My trainer has told me I must have two snacks each day... something about not going too long without eating... I have been eating fruits and veggies for my snacks. Plums are just 35 calories... carrot sticks are really good also... or I may grab a protein bar.. Special K has a really yummy dark chocolate granola one that is just 110 calories...

    My favorite just before dinner is dried mangoes. They are sweet and chewy, just enough to keep me from tasting while I'm cooking.

    I snack 2 or 3 times a day. I am relearning to eat the "right" portions, and small, often "mini meals" works well for me during the day. Depending on my nutritional or hunger needs, I've been grabbing a 1/2 c Greek yogurt or beans (I totally made an enormous batch this week, gotta eat 'em up, lol). If I need something "substantial" and sweet, I make a giant "iced coffee": one Slim Fast shake (I have a bunch hanging around), ice and cold coffee. Blend and enjoy. I concur that almonds would never "work" for me. Stopping at 10 nuts won't cut it for me (for now).

    About 3/4cup of Oikos Vanilla Greek yogurt mixed with a tablespoon of creamy peanut butter. I could live on the stuff.

    Figs, dates, and cheese seem to work well. Sometimes I need the protein from the cheese and other times its the fiber from the dried fruit.

    Always fruit and cheese or grape tomatoes and cheese.

    The baby bells are what I usually buy. Portable and not messy.
