    A lemon butter salmon filet is just 100 calories and is very satisfying. Has Omega 3s too! (Gorton's fisherman)

    Jicama!! It keeps me full and is slightly sweet and really crunchy. It's a totally underrated food.

    So, before I found my secret weapon, I would munch on everything in sight before heading to bed. I finally found something that worked for me! Weight Watchers dark chocolate & raspberry ice cream bars. They are 80 calories and I can eat only one and be completely satisfied! What is your secret weapon? I'd love to see what other things you all are doing that help you to stay on track.

    I love those things! Have you tried Weight Watchers Dark Chocolate Raspberry Cheesecake Bars? They are bigger and only have 110 calories. Weight Watchers has, by far, the best ice cream bars ever. I also eat the Giant Latte Bars for 90 calories and the Giant Chocolate Fudge Bars for 100 calories. YUMMMMMMMMM

    Edit: Oh, okay. My non-sweet fillers that I love are kohlrabi succulent and very few calories and fresh fennel bulbs sliced and served with a little Newman's Low Fat Sesame Ginger salad dressing. A cup of sliced fennel with a tsp of dressing has about 25-30 calories (maybe less). The dressing is very intensely flavored and a little on the thinner side so it mixes with lots of salad volume for a lot of flavor.

    One ounce of reduced fat cheddar cheese carries me through my snack attacks.

    Mine isn't food (although I have gotten very attached to my protein shakes...). It's plastic containers. I have a ton of them, so I can pack healthy lunches to take to school. I know how much each one is (1 cup size, 2 cup sizes, 1/2 cup, etc) to make measuring portions easy.

    Oh yeah, those skinny cow ice cream sandwiches are amazing. I can eat about 3 of those in one sitting, though! lol

    My crunchy secret weapon is definately sugar snap peas!!! My "candy bar" secret weapon is Quaker Stila Bars, blueberry, strawberry or apple/cinnamon (80 cal). My newest find and definately a go to snack is Kiwi Berries, where have these things been all of my life!! If you haven't had them, the are literally little tiny kiwis about the size of grapes and you can just pop 'em in your mouth without dealing with that annoying fuzzy peeling of a larger kiwi.

    My real secret weapon is veggies. I fill up on them before I get to the good part of my meal, and I'm so full I can have a low cal dinner. Then I snack on delicious stuff later. It works for me, at least.

    Fat free yogurt: Add canned peaches, artificial sweetener and a dash of cinnamon. 1/2 cup of yogurt has just 50 calories. I also make a creamy smoothly in the blender with sugar free orange soda, yogurt and a little milk. Lasts a long time when sipped through a straw. Yum.

    Or add a few nuts, plain cocoa and sweetener to yogurt for a chocolatey under 100 calories treat. Hmmm....wonder if it would freeze? I'll have to try it.
