    Frozen raspberries - 8 grams of fibre per cup. So yummy with a little low fat yoghurt over the top for a healthy yet low calorie dessert.

    My favorites lately have been cocoa roast almonds, fiber one bars, oranges (good with the chocolate almonds), and apples with laughing cow cheese. Also a new fan of bagel thins, and hummus is a great standby. Will be interested to get some more snack ideas too!

    If you have main type items then how about some of these.....

    gram crackers....check out the cals
    salsa....low cals...tasty and an inexpensive treat. I dip califlower, celery and other veggies in salsa
    popcorn....air popped of course
    rice cakes...lots of flavors out there
    veggetarian refried beans...mix with some salsa for a great veggie dip
    tuna tuna tuna....I use tuna often as it is low in cals and high in protein

    I look forward to reading other posts....:)

    Hi ....I love the emerald cocoa roast almonds in the 100 calorie packs. They satisfy my sweet tooth so good:) Also greek yogurt is divine....I love athenos blueberry (100 calories, 11 gms protein), grapes, bananas, apples or whatever fruit you like, fresh carrot and celery sticks, almond milk for that protein shake. Kashi cereals are perfect for a snack and very filling because they are packed with protein and fiber! Good luck to you:)

    Apples with natural peanut butter is one of my favorite snacks. As for meals, try chicken breast with tomatoes and onions and lime and have black beans and basmati rice for sides.

    melba toast is low carb for the amount of calories... also try WASA crackers! they ROCK and each one is like 30 calories or something like that. you find them next to the melba toast.
