    It depends on your concept of healthy. Either an ounce of regular cheese or 2 ounces of Laughing Cow Light Cheese.

    Sounds healthy to me! I was just ruling out things like, you know, a whole bag of Doritos or a carton of ice cream. Lol :)

    I have a planned snack every night. Usually skinny cow bar, or 17 semisweet chunks or 4 tbsp pb2. I used to graze the pantry when I was obese. I am not a sweets person so a sweet snack completely kills my appetite

    Sometimes I'll cut up berries or a banana amd dip it in a little whipped cream. I also enjoy an apple with peanut butter or just a little cinnamon sugar.

    I recently discovered that chunks of slightly over-ripe bananas that have been frozen are really good. They seem to get creamy and not too hard.

    Ghiradelli 72% dark chocolate. Pre-wrapped squares. 60 cal. I eat one around 8-8:30 most every evening, after my house calms a bit (I have 4 kids, lol)

    Yogurt raisins are my favorite "go to" sweet snack food - day or night.

    A woman after my own heart! :drinker: I almost always have a piece of chocolate as my last snack of the night. I've also recently discovered that higher quality chocolate is more satisfying in small amounts than "cheap" chocolate. I never thought I'd be a person who would think one piece of chocolate was enough, but now it really is! :smile:

    Absolutely! I freeze the chocolate, break it up into 4 bits, then savor it over 15-20 min. Mental-health break! :wink:

    For a late night snack I'll usually go for grapes or almonds, but if I'm feeling really hungry (even when I shouldn't be) I'll make a cup of steamed broccoli. Fills me right up without tons of fat and whatnot.

    okay, I have a few--there is a 100 calorie microwave popcorn that I like, or a small piece of dark chocolate or ten rainier cherries (those are the yellow ones--so delish right now) or…and this is not quite so healthy…Trader Joe's makes these cookies that are super thin and crispy-they come in coconut, ginger or meyer lemon and they are like 9 for 130 calories so if I have four it feels like cheating and it's not that many calories. I also just found the coconut milk ice cream that is 1/2 cup for 160 calories. I am a HUGE sweets girl so that has been the hardest part of this. I love to bake and I used to think nothing of sitting down to like 5 homemade cookies every night. Not necessary. The thing I miss most is croissants--they are my biggest weakness but WAY too many calories. I am much more able to control myself with not-sweet snacks. I can measure out the amount and be satisfied. Cookies, pastries, pie--I love it all. And it shows on my thighs...

    My day usually ends with either ice cream, cake, beer, yogurt or a protein shake. Since my diet overall is healthy, all the foods in it are healthy by default.

    A piece of wheat toast and peanut butter. 175 cams, so I only eat it when I'm really low

    I have 1 cup of Dreyers Sugar Free Low fat vanilla icecream floating in AW diet rootbeer. Yummy, not too unhealthy. I allow for the 200 calories in my daily food allowance.
