SNACK ATTACK...... Here is the idea. You get ziplock sandwich bags you put 100 calories worth of crackers, potato chips, trail mix, pretzels. gummy bears, cookies, fruit, cucumbers, radishes, gold fish, ect...you get the idea. Do this on the weekend with what ever snacks you like. Just make sure you measure out everything so each bag is 100 calories. Put everything on on shelf in cupboard or refrigerator. Then through out the week when you need a snack you grab one of your bags and you know every bag is 100 calories. So you know right away weather its worth the 100 calories. This is also great to take to work you have little snacks ready to go. No vending machine or roach coach needed. You could even make a food item in your counter called "Snack Attack" for easy tracking. Anyway just an idea.

    That's actually an awesome idea! I'm guilty of snacking out of the box and eating way to much :tongue:

    Great idea, but I think that in the heat of the moment when I'm looking for a snack, I would grab three bags .

    I do this during the year so I can grab a quick snack to bring to class with me! It's so useful.

    Yeah i know they sell those 100 cal dorito bags and other products but i think they're alot of money compared to regular sized bags. Just make sure you don't give up and eat 3 or 4 at a time, lol..

    Great idea for my road trip starting on Sunday!! I'm a little nervous of bored snacking in the car, but if I have it split out into 100 cal bags, it SHOULD help me stop when I'm visually done with one bag!

    Great idea, definately going to start doing this one. Saves you money compared to those 100 calorie snack packs and you can do snacks of your own choosing.

    Awesome idea, I love it! Money and Calorie saving. It's so easy to eat more than you anticipated when you eat directly from the bag/box/container. I'm officially stealing your idea. :o)

    It's one of those food trucks that drives around and you can buy hot food or snacks off of them. Most of the time they have great burritos....there's one out here that has BBQ! Usually they drive around mainly industrial areas, construction sites, etc.
