Hi all

not sure with the time zones, but its about 630pm here. What can I have for my evening snack thats low in cals but tastes great :) Desperate housewives comes on tonight and I always end up binging!!! What do you all eat at night? ( I know - its probably better to eat nothing in the evening, but still)

  • LIght popcorn, cucumbers with some lf dressing, grapes, brocolli with humus. OR go for a walk and add yourself some calories! :) Enjoy your night!

    One of my most favorite lower calorie snacks that I find really delicious is peeled sliced Cucumbers with lime juice on them and chili powder with a little salt. Not sure where you are but it's best with a mexican chili powder called pico de gallo. Might be too much work to track down for tonight, but if you ever come across it. It's really good and savory.

    Evenings are the worst time for me, so I program in a couple of snacks. 4 oz of cinnamon Applesauce is 90 cal. A medium banana is 108. And of course, my favorite is a Jello no-fat chocolate pudding cup (100 cal). Yogurts are very satisfying and 80 cal. I think it's a great time for fruit. What do you like? Use it as your reward for sticking to your program that day or for doing your exercise. I set up my program at the beginning of the day. I immediately program in my two snacks (banana and chocolate pudding cup), and my breakfast which is always the same (I know it isn't supposed to be, but it's what I like). Then I think about what I'll have for dinner, and program that in, and whatever is left over is for lunch. Often that turns out to be a salad, or a Lean Cuisine or Healthy Choice dinner. If there aren't calories left over to have what I want for my meals, then I make sure I get my exercise in for the day, and earn another 100-200 calories. If you love your snacks like I do, let it be your motivator to get your exercise in.

    Glass of chocolate milk is about 150 calories. The 15 extra won't make that much of a difference. :wink:

    crisp apple and carrot slices_ I like the combo....air popped popcorn with salt and some spray butter- very filling and you can have a big bowl for 150 cal...maybe drink some tea with it...half a cup cottage cheese with some fruit (the protein keeps you satisfied)...carmel mini rice cakes

    celery, mushrooms, snap peas, grape tomatoes, carrot sticks, bell pepper spears, cucumbers - and NO DIP!!

    There's just about no limit to how much you could eat. With 135 calories, you could eat that, continuously, for about an hour.

    I just enjoyed 1 scoop of Country Rich Vanilla Ice cream, it was only 120 calories, 15 carbs, 7 fat grams. I was low on my fat count for the day so I endulged a little, been sick and needed the extra bit of fat and carbs plus it soothed my sore throat.

    I just had this problem.. and decided to have Special K red berries and milk for a snack. We like to eat dinner while watching Amazing Race.. so I needed something to keep me content until then!

    Check out my diary if you want.

    Most likey, IMO, it doesn't matter what time you eat. I wouldn't worry about that :)

    I love skinny cow ice cream too! You can get some ice cream bars for 100 calories and they are really good!
  • I usually eat a fruit if I am low in calories, but hungry. I also enjoy oyster crackers if I'm craving salt or something crunchy. Smoothies are also good at keeping me full and they taste great!

    I LOVE popcorn so thats my "go to" snack or string cheese!
  • I like to make a pot of hot tea with skim milk and honey. The warm liquid makes me feel full, the sweet satisfies my craving, and it's only about 26 calories a glass!

    Co-sign on a 100-calorie bag of popcorn. Jolly Time makes one with only 95 mg sodium ... yum!

    Other suggestions -- light cheese with half serving of crackers; medium piece of fruit; half-cup of Sf/FF pudding or cup of SF/FF gelatin; 20 almonds.

    I love 100 calorie packs of butter or kettle corn popcorn!!!
  • Tonight I will have Orville Redenbacher's low-cal popcorn in the pop up bowl. Saves on the calories and the dishes! I love the kettle corn. When I want savory I use the butter flavor with a bit of fresh cracked pepper. Also to drink i would have either Thomas Kempers low cal Root Beer for 20 calories or Celestial Seasonings Bengal Spice Tea with Stevia in the Raw.
  • I dunno :)
