I'm a newbie!

Hello!

A few of my fave snacks:

low-fat greek yogurt with a handful of fresh or frozen berries
roasted garbanzo beans (yum!)
low-fat string cheese
a honeycrisp apple or banana with natural peanut butter.

hi, and good luck. i have found success with adding greek yogurt and nuts (almonds, walnuts) to my diet. while higher in calories, these foods deliver great nutrition for the calories, which is what it is all about. i now think about eating as a way to give myself nutrition to make me feel better, which helps fight off some of the cravings. i also eat kashi go lean cereal (not the crunch or fruit versions), it has a ton of protein and dietary fiber, literally the most nutritious best tasting cereal i ever had. the other advice i would give you is to drink lots of water and give up soda including diet soda. if you have a lot of bad habits you might also want to eliminate them one at a time rather than go cold turkey which never worked for me. and make sure you work in an excercise program to take advantage of your lowering weight. it is my experience that weight loss if 80% food and 20% exercise, but the exercise let's you take advantage of the lower weight. best of luck!

Good luck! You're going to do great. My snacks kinda depend on how many calories I have left in the day. They are usually under 200 cal. Let's see, smart pop kettle corn, frozen pineapple cups, fat free-sugar free chocolate/vanilla swirl ice cream (200 cal for a cup), toast w/ nutella, and trail mix.
