    baby carrots, I would say 100 calorie snacks but I just heard that they are not all that good for you :grumble: I love fresh beans right from the garden and just love to snack on them.

    Quaker Bites 90 calories per package
    Baby Carrots and Hummus

    That's what I eat.

    Actually many snacks are low calorie and healthy if you eat ONE serving.

    Try ziploc bagging up snacks that you love that aren't fatty.

    that is the key - such as dried fruit or a trail mix, just NEVER bring the whole bag to work, I know if I do it disappears far too quickly. and I have to hide it from myself at home.
  • Don't know if you have a Trader Joe's where you live but my favorite snack is a couple peeled carrots dipped in Trader Joe's Spicy Fat Free black bean dip. It is really a filling and tasty dip and it's 30 calories for 2 tablespoons (just enough dip for two regular sized carrots). It's also good with cucumber, celery, or on a spread on a baked tortilla.

    Another favorite is air popped popcorn

    I learned the hard way!
    I thought I was doing good by getting a bag of trail mix. I'd go to work and eat it. then look at the calorie count + servings and I consumed approx 600 calories!!!!

    I began ziploc bagging 1 serving and i've been doing well so far.
