    That sounds good. I am going to look for it!

    My FAVORITE low calorie snacks are weight watchers dark chocolate raspberry bars (they are seriously amazing) and baked tostitos with salsa. Mmmmmmmm....

    To me calories are a unit of how good food tastes. Fewer calories = Less flavour. that's why id rather eat 1 mini mars bar over 2 rice cakes :D

    I LOVE SUGAR SNAP PEAS! i always have them in my crisper! They have a crunch so it will satisfy for "chip" craving,... and theyre sweet so it satisfies you sugar craving...
    also the special k snack bars are really good and they only have 90 cals per bar

    I also love sugar snap peas.....they are my favorite. I also keep Crispy minis in the cupboard for when I need "chips", and PC honey braided pretzels (sweet and crunchy). Watermelon is another staple in my fridge.

    a few of my snack foods - when I really feel like nacho's - I use PC hemp & sesame seed tortilla chips - they are so tasty and you can have 36 chips per serving - low fat cheese and salsa. Love them better then regular ones.

    I also LOVE cookies and since I have been controlling my sugars, I do not need sweets like before. When I still have that little craving, I will eat Thinaddictives almond & cranberry - you get 4. Also, preventia has a really good snack cookie in a small 100 calorie bag.

    Since watching everything especially my sugars and carbs since May - I have brought my sugars down to normal range and lost 18 lbs. Don't fool yourself snacking can still have lots of flavour you just have to try new things.
