    Chocolate chip Snack-a-Jacks are my fave snack at the moment. Yummy crispy chocolatey rice cakes with choc chips in and only 62cals each :)

    No, I know what you mean. Sometimes veggies just aren't enough! Try nuts, like almonds, cashews, walnuts, etc. Raw, of course. Yes, they are slightly high in calories but I always find them to be a filling snack. And you'll get some protein in!

    Dried fruits and nuts (in moderation, just a couple of handfuls per day)

    Popcorn, if you avoid overly sugary or salty ones you can be ok (Is this still a vegetable?!)

    Smoothies are great for a sugar fix - try mixing up blueberries, cranberries and strawberries with a orange juice, some carbonated water and a drop of ginger

    Wasabi Peas are really strong flavoured, I find you don't need so many of these to satisfy a crunch craving (ok another veg, i'm not doing so well here)

    erm.... that's all I can think of i'm afraid!

    I love fruit and yogurt. Nuts are great but they can be expensive in calories. Sugar free pudding for that sweet tooth. laughing cow cheese and crackers are good.

    Why were you eating vegetables in the first place? EW!

    Cheese, cocoa almonds, cheese, cheese and cheese are all yummy snacks.

    How about 4-6 oz. of yogurt with about 1/2 tbsp. dry roasted peanuts or fruit mixed in? Or just a fruit alone. I like apple slices with 1 Tbsp. of reduced fat peanut butter. Low fat cottage cheese..there are endless snack ideas out there rather than just eating veggies for snacks all the time.

    Kashi granola bars
    fruit, either plain or with hummus, cheese or nut butter
    nuts
    Whole grain crackers or chips
    A slice of whole grain bread with pb
    nuts or low sugar trail mix
    dry roasted edamame (techinally a veg, but it tastes like a nut)

    To be honest, I rarely snack on veggies. I do make them a part of my lunch and dinner though. What I do snack on are fresh fruit, sea salt almonds, laughing cow/ww cheese wedges with crackers, string cheese, Greek yogurt, etc.

    Plenty of snack options that aren't vegetables. I personally recommend Smoky BBQ Wheat Thins. Those are slammin'. You could also get a hold of some fresh deli meats and nibble at those if you're craving something, or even just reach for a bottle of water to keep you occupied until your next meal :)

    I'm not much of a veggie person either! lol and when I do eat them they have to be cooked in things I can't stand them on their own. ...

    I do however LOVE fruit, and have that as a snack a lot.. blueberry's are my personal favorite, I also eat a lot of strawberries since they are relatively inexpensive and only 49 calories per cup!

    100 calorie bags of pop corn are amazing! and so are sugar free fudgecicyles (sp?)

    I forget the brand name but apple straws are great... they kind of taste like taco bell's cinnamon sugar things, only they are much healthier for you... you get 38 of them for like 140 calories.

    laughing cow cheese on 35 calorie bread is great too.

    and I know that this is not healthy... but I'll have hot chocolate a lot as a snack if I'm really wanting something chocolatey

    As a snack I love yogurt with some granola mixed in.

    I also love hummus with pita chips. This may not count as hummus is made from chickpeas which are veggies.

    I also love a banana every now and then.

    But what did you eat before that? What did you eat before you started trying to lose weight?

    What about popcorn? You can get quite a bit of snacking enjoyment out if it for a modest amount of calories. I would also suggest light yogurt, hard boiled egg, or cheese sticks.

    Also, try roasting the veggies. Roasted green beans, for example, seem very sweet and rich tasting to me - totally different that raw green beans.

    I have oatmeal with a half cup of blueberries or any other fruit. I use the Quacker Old Fashion oats. Too much salt in the instant packages. It is a good filler and is good for you. I also will have cinnamon roasted Almonds. 6 pieces of dried apricots. 6 pieces of cubed cheese , 6 ritz crakers and 10 grapes. I make them up in a zipock bag to take to work and in the car.
