    Great topic! I am always looking for low calorie options that don't contain artificial sweeteners. Artificial Sweeteners = MIGRAINES!!! :(

    Here are some of my favorites:
    1. 1% Cottage Cheese
    2. Light Bread - 40 cal per slice
    3. Low Fat Fudgesicles - 60 cal each and no sweeteners!
    4. Kellogg's Crunchy Nut Cereal - very filling!
    5. Bananas
    6. Nectarines
    7. V8 Low Sodium
    9. Crystal Farms Light String Cheese - 50 cal per stick
    10. Michelina's Lean Goumet meals - under 300 cal for most options. Lots of protein too!
    11. Low Fat Graham Crackers
    12. Coffee or Tea - no sugar or sweeteners = little to no calories
    13. Burger King Whopper Jr. no mayo or ketchup. (If you have to grab something fast and drive-thru)
    14. Specia K Chocolatey Pretzel Bars - 90 cal
    15. Lemon Juice - great to flavor water and helps with water retention.

    Can't wait to read more!

    9) Lettuce with ketchup. LOL no one else likes this but it's the only way I'll eat lettuce.

    lol, I like lettuce with mustard.

    totally messed up your quote, not sure where your name went, that was from wekkle.

    BLUEBERRIES!

    also Jalna fat free natural yogurt or the low fat berry fruit flavour
    cucumber
    frozen and fresh veggies
    ratatouille was really low cal as a meal
    I also like to mix 25g vogels ultra bran into 100g low fat berry yogurt and let it sit for an hour or so as a dessert if I have a spare 160 cals at the end of the day :)

    2. blackberries
    3. hummus
    4. wheat crackers
    5. my homemade 92 calorie whole wheat pancakes
    6. popcorn
    7. seafood- mainly fish, shrimp & crab

    That's all my brain can come up with:indifferent:
