    I love the 100 calorie snack packs and applesauce for my morning snack. For afternoon, I like fresh fruits and veggies, and almonds. Emerald has come out with 100 calorie packs of the cocoa roasted almonds, and they are my favorite.

    Lots of great ideas!! My absolute favorite is instant oatmeal. Super easy to make (add hot water from the water cooler), stir, and enjoy. Plus it keeps my full and energized through lunch. In the afternoon I'm usually craving chocolate (and thinking I deserve it after all I've accomplished through the day) so I keep a sugarfree Jell-O pudding snack in the fridge. Seriously yummy.

    -A Gala or Golden Delicious apple... Apples are quite filling :)
    -I had been eating natural whole almonds, but my bag is too big, and I have a hard time stopping when I start. I might try and get those 100 cal bags that someone above mentioned
    -oats & honey granola bar

    pre portion your almonds into 100cal bags yourself! it works out much cheaper

    100 calorie packs of pistachios or almonds are my favorite AM snack, and Fiber One coconut caramel bars are my favorite PM snack. The fiber one bars replace a candy bar nicely while giving you 9g of fiber- plus, they help me feel energetic for my post-work trip to the gym! good luck!

    Apples
    Popcorn
    Bananas
    Yogurt (put some frozen berries in plain yogurt in the morning, and by snack time you have flavored yogurt!!)
    Cheese

    If I really need something sweet, I make some decaf coffee with flavored creamer - not a lot of calories but satisfies my sweet tooth!
