    - Eggs. I eat hard-boiled eggs as a snack a lot.
    - Hot sauce. Spices. Mustard. (Anything that adds flavor without adding sugar or sodium) Oh, and salsa! Oh man I love it. Oh, and apple cider vinegar.
    - Plain yogurt or kefir. (Always low-sugar ones! Some of them have more sugar than ice cream!) I love yogurt so much! But some people can't eat plain yogurt... I would stay away from the flavored ones and just add some pieces of orange or something to sweeten it.
    - Frozen strawberries. Even if I pig out and eat a whole bag (which I'm known to do, when watching Grey's Anatomy), it's still just a bag of fruit. I could do way worse. Frozen bananas are JUST like ice cream, by the way.
    - La Tortilla Factory Eat Smart Wraps (110 calories, low net-carb count, amazing)
    - Cayenne pepper. I learned this from a model. A sprinkle of cayenne pepper in your water first thing in the morning (or any time, really) kick-starts your metabolism and lessens your appetite. I squeeze lemons in those suckers too sometimes.
    - Cans of tuna! Chicken! Tilapia!
    - Oh, and whatever veggies look good.

    I love grocery shopping :bigsmile:

    Zero Fat Yogurt (35 calories) and All bran buds (80 calories per 1/3 cup)...mix third cup in the yogurt and you got a very healthy, low calorie breakfast full of calcium and fiber...almost you entire fiber for the day..

    Greek yogurt - plain, 0% fat - have found Fage to be my favorite brand, is great mixed with fresh fruit, great source of protein, and a wonderful substitute for sour cream!

    Also, quinoa - a grain that is also a great protein source. Lots of recipes that include it - just google quinoa recipes.

    Things on my list these days:

    1) ALWAYS vanilla soy milk. It is nice in my coffee and I can put a little on top of berries.
    2) Raw spinach and raw carrots. I've recently discovered that veggies really DO have taste!
    3) egg beaters for some sort of omlet or scramble on weekends

    YUM YUM :)

    Vita Tops Deep Chocolate- They are SO good but I wish they weren't so darn expensive! (I still buy them anyway :blushing: )

    Frozen Strawberries, Minute Maid Light OJ or Trop 50, and bananas- I make smoothies almost every night when I have the ingredients.

    Salad- I usually eat it at least once a day.

    Yoplait Light yogurt- I know, I know it has a ton of sugar in it- but I can't eat plain yogurt even with fruit mixed in so I'll suck it up and just deal with it.

    Special K cereal bars- I love the Chocolately Pretzel.

    I always stock up on Slim Fast snack bars for my sweet tooth - they're only 95 cals and taste just like a Mars or Snickers bar.

    Or for those of you who have to have proper Cadbury's, try buying Freddos or one finger Drifters. This is just for those who are like me and can't face cutting chocolate out altogether

    If this forum was for proper healthy fruit n stuff then I apologise x
