    I bake a lot. So I've experimented with making "healthy-ish" snacks like protein cake or balls. Low Cal but packed with good stuff. But I also like simple things like Apple slices with peanut butter or bananas.

    I love Hummus and veggies, I add a little hot sauce to my hummus for a kick and extra metabolism boost. Guacamole and veggies is also good. Just watch portions on the guac as it is pretty high in calories, but with healthy, satisfying fats and fiber. Nuts are good too as long as you stick to proper portions. If I'm craving something sweet I like 1/2c cottage cheese with a small apple chopped up in it, 1/4 tsp of cinnamon, and a Tbsp of slivered almonds. Homemade frozen yogurt or sorbet is good too, put 1 cup frozen fruit and 3oz greek yogurt in the food processor. Give it a quick buzz and in a couple minutes you have healthy froyo! You can add a tsp of raw honey if you need some sweetener. Pinterest has lots of great ideas and recipes!

    I eat a lot of Greek yogurt, that's my usual afternoon snack. A little pb2 chocolate powder mixed in and maybe some chocolate chips. In the evening I like popcorn. String cheese is low calorie and high protein.

    I love dates stuffed with peanut butter :) They are so small but are an amazing pick me up! They seem to be so incredibly filling, haha. Great for those days when the celery just isn't cutting it ;)

    This. I pre-log my days, including my afternoon snack. I make whatever sounds good that day fit (right now it's Dutch toast and cream cheese).

    My go to snacks are kind brand granola bars (had to switch from Luna, the varieties at my local stores all have dairy and I'm working on cutting dairy out), hard boiled eggs with mustard, slim fast shakes (the bottled kind), and 100 calorie almond packs.
