    My new favorite is a whole pint of Chocolate Arctic Zero with a serving of PB2 mixed in. A whole PINT of Peanut buttery ice cream, for only 200 calories!

    Why not eat the Peanut Butter flavor of Arctic Zero? Well, the Whole Foods I go to doesn't typically carry the PB flavor. Also, when I have been able to find it, the PB flavor is too mild for my taste.

    I always feel like I need an afternoon snack with such a large gap of time between lunch and dinner. Eating a snack around 3 or 330 works for me. If i'm going to work out hare after work, I like to have a protein mix. Which consists of :

    *1 serving of fat free chobani plain yogurt, 1 scoop of isopure dutch chocolate low carp protein powder and a scoop of all natural no salt added teddie peanut butter. This is protein loaded and on the higher side for cals so I only eat this if i've had a lighter lunch and planning a big workout.

    Otherwise some of my fave afternoon snacks are:
    Green tea and a Pink Lady Apple
    Hummus and Baby Carrots

    McCoys Bacon Sizzler flavour crisps!

    For me, they're the only crisps that are actually worth the calories! :D

    My favourite afternoon snack is nada, zip, nothing

    Don't really do snacking because it's snacking that has gotten me and I bet a lot of you into the overweight condition in the first place.

    I try and get a balanced breakfast and lunch, both of which includes protein, to keep the munchies at bay :bigsmile:

    I do sometime have a snack in the evening if I discover I'm under or just tipping the 1000kc mark.

    Reported
    methinks thou attempteth too hard not to get banned

    I can't help it that my foods can be misinterpreted...I just want people to know I actually mean what foods I mention. I'm not still bitter or anything.



    Why was this reported?

    Great thread!

    I also love Nature Valley thins with Dark Chocolate = 190 cal
    Clif bar or Powerbar Harvest = 240 cal
    Kraft 2% reduced fat mozzerella string cheese = 70 cal
    Necturine or peach = 65 cal
    37 pcs baked Goldfish crackers = 100 cal
    Yoplait light yogurt, any flavor = 100 cal

    I usually mix and match these to even out my calories burned for the day.

    WOW...I love this post !! New snack ideas..all great ones too !! I think fruit (any kind) is one of my favorites at snack time just because there are many to choose from. But, I have to say that since I discovered the Skinny Cow ice cream products, I have become a little hooked on them too !! Now I am going back and making note of all the snack ideas that interested me !!!
