    I get my sweet tooth satisfied with cereal or oatmeal and fruit and maybe a teeny bit of nuts...or a spoonful of peanut butter or nutella...

    My favorite is Nutella and fresh ground almond butter on a banana! So delicious!

    Nutella is delicious, but I can't get it very often :-( (I have no control when it comes to nutella and could/have eaten a whole jar in a couple of days). Personally a bowl of cereal is my favorite evening snack or fat free pudding.

    Peanut butter and honey, almond butter, lowfat cottage cheese....all good for you, and satisfying!

    I either eat a small bowl of shredded wheat or a Greek Yogurt. Chobani is my fav.

    I love days when I get done and there are still a couple hundred Cals to play with. Usually that's when I break out the almond butter or nutella and experiment with new combinations. Or how about a fruit smoothie? I love mango lassi which I make at home with half a cup of yogurt and one mango-- about 250 Cal.

    Unless you've gone excessively over on protein or you're lacking in something else, I personally think there's nothing wrong with more protein, esp later in the day.

    I was going to suggest Nuttela also with some fruit (apple, banana, or strawberries). Or pudding
