Snacks?

Options
Do you have a snack in the evenings after supper, or do you not eat anything after supper?

    Depending on when I go to bed I usually have one or two high fiber snacks. A cereal bar and/or a piece of fruit.

    I try not to eat after dinner.

    If I'm hungry I'll have something like a hot cocoa or glass of juice.

    I typically have a snack after dinner but I try to make it a healthy snack and not something full of fat. I normally have yogurt or cottage cheese and fruit. I actually had my doctor tell me that I should have a snack before bedtime to help keep my body from going into starvation mode. She also told me that within an hour of waking up that I need to drink at least 8 hours of water and eat something small even if it is not breakfast to help my body come out of starvation while I was sleeping and to jump start my metabolism for the day.

    I like to have a 100 cal bag of microwave popcorn in the evening. Keeps my tummy from growling all night!

    I try and stick with something low cal for no cal like fruit or veggies if I'm still hungry after dinner. Water helps fill you up too!

    I'm new to using fitnesspal and the site and really like. I sometimes have a snack. Depends on if I'm trying to do a fast or not. I try to go from 6pm to 11am without eating but there are times I gotta have something so if I do its sf jello with cottage or yogurt. Just something light.

    if i have an early dinner, i'll either save part of my dinner or have a light snack (cheese and crackers or a few strawberries) a couple hours later.

    unfortunaly yeah i do. night-time snacking is a huge thing for me :/ I stay up late cause of my work schedule, usually dont go in till real late afternoon so my routine is whack lol but i try to make sure i have some alloted calories left for some night-time snacks and i choose healthy, low cal options. apples, baby carrots w salsa for dipping, popcorn (it feels like im getting a lot of food for only 100cals!) which helps!! greek yogurt (cause its filling) and lately wasa light n crisp crackers (3 for 60cals) and i spread a little of that laughing cow light cheese spread ontop of it (half the wedge is just 18cals!) so yes i do but i make sure i set aside the calories for it and i keep it as healthy and low-cal as possible.
