What foods do you reach for when you are HUNGRY and only have a bit of your calorie budget left?

I'll start...

- Refried beans in a whole wheat tortilla sometimes with hot sauce.

- Lowfat cottage cheese sometimes with fruit

    8 special k cracker chips with 8 pieces of turkey peperoni
    a few peperoncini slices and a wedge of laughing cow cheese
    great filling snack for 100 calories!
    I like to arrange my plate with peppers, chips, peperoni and cheese
    looks more like a small meal

    Almonds--protein always holds me best! I usually have 4-5 before I fix supper so that I am not tempted to snack while I am in the kitchen.

    A sliced up cucumber.quite filling and very few cals.
    Egg white sandwich - 2 or 3 egg whites fried in a pan, toast a 100 cal thin loaf or a 110 cal bagel thin -yummy, filling and about 150 to 170 cals. eat with water and you're good to go.

    Man, all of these replies sound so healthy =)

    I will grab a Oroville Redenbacher's 100 calorie bag of popcorn; 5 or 6 Ritz crackers; a handful of goldfish (it's like 100 cal for 24 crackers or something like that); or an apple.

    ...and a Diet Coke!
