Evening snacks

I have 6 calories left for the day before I work out and I'm starving. Any suggestions for an evening snack that will take the edge off this hunger I'm feeling. After I work out I'll have about 200 cals to play with.

    One egg white, seasoned and cooked in a nonstick skillet. If your skillet is good enough, you don't even need cooking spray.

    Celery and peanut butter, broccoli and cheese (YUM! - I usually do like 2 cups of broccoli and 1/4 cup shredded cheese.) Basically a huge portion of a low calorie vegetable, with a small bit of something tasty along with it. If you have spaghetti squash, you can make a big plate of that with a little olive oil, basil, parsley, garlic, etc. Mmm!

    I am with the squash super yummy. If you have a sweet tooth add cinnamon. 2 cups is under 100 calories and it is filling.

    Greek yogurt, or cheese stick usually do the job for me. Or some Cocoa Roasted almonds. :drinker:

    Craziness! I love steamed spinach and mushrooms....I usually had some garlic, too....all the vitamins and folic acid in the spinach is just the bonus!

    steamed apple and cinnamon is awesome, depending on how many calories you have left :smile: you can do it over yogurt and/or add some nuts. pudding or jello is great too....I am not a huge sweets person but at the end of the day I need something sweet to close out the day.

    I agree, I think it's like 35 calories for a wedge. Many different flavors, so you never get bored

    I would either have popcorn, or 1 egg fried with 1 serving shredded cheese.
