    hard boiled eggs
    edamame packs
    veggies and hummus
    kind bars
    fruit and yogurt
    Try to have a protein with each snack, will keep you full longer (well satisfied) I'm never full.

    Raw almonds, walnuts, pecans, whatever you like. Pistachios. A piece of fruit. String cheese. Raw veggies plain or with a little hummus or peanut butter(celery). Cottage cheese, I like to mix in a little sriracha and dehydrated onion pieces for savory, or dry sugar free jello or pudding for sweet. I really like quest bars, especially the white chocolate raspberry and Kind bars. Turkey jerky.

    I eat bananas, nuts: almonds, pistachios, cashews. Can do Trail mixes all day! sometimes an apple. I use to do the carrot with the cream cheese thing, till I left the cream cheese out too long in the office and nearly died. so no more cream cheese.

    I eat every few hours. Portion out your snacks ahead of time. For example, weigh and measure your nuts/cheese/whole wheat crackers/fruit/veggies, etc.
    You're less likely to over eat if it's already portioned out.

    Dry-roasted edamame/soybeans. Single-serve cheese (string cheese, fresh mozzarella pearls, queso fresco, more). Sharwood's puppodums. Fruit, including dried fruit (reasonable portions of unsweetened dried fruit, with water on the side).

    Thanks for all of the suggestions! I should have stated "looking for low carb snacks". Did YOLI for 1.5 years, and can't stand bolied eggs anymore because of that:( I do enjoy almonds!
