Does anyone have a food they eat all the time that just makes you feel good? I've found that eating raw spinach makes me feel good. I also love to eat dove's dark chocolate. That's an instant pick-me-up right there! ;)

    String Cheese. It's a great snack that meets my salty-chewy craving without sending me into a sugar coma.

    In theory, anything smothered in cheese should make me feel good. I love cheese so much! But in reality, I actually feel *awesome* after eating raw carrots. The taste is okay, but the feeling of awesomeness I get afterwards is just addicting!

    ETA... And yes, I really do love exclamation points, apparently. :blushing:

    I absolutely love brussel sprouts! But my guilty pleasure is, hands down, crunchy peanut butter. :)

    Wow, I can't believe I found another person who loves brussel sprouts! I absolutely disgusted my family when I ate them yesterday... something was said about them giving off a strong odor. :P

    Agree with the loving brussel sprouts but also agree with the stinkiness. But still tasty!

    I struggle with peanut butter (the creamy kind) and bread. Must.....stay.....away....

    My list would be surprisingly long because I have been on a mission to find foods I enjoy and can eat on a daily basis within my macros. Here are a few..

    Avocados
    Hummus- Roasted Pine Nuts
    Jamba Juice Jubilee frozen Yogurt and Sorbet bars
    Nuts of all sorts - pistachio, pine, almond, cashews, walnut ...
    Fage Greek (plain) Yogurt w/ fresh fruit
    PB2
    Teas - all sorts
    Coconut milk and water
    Silk Dark Chocolate Almond Milk
    Justin's nut butters (in moderation)
    Gnu bars
    Laughing Cow light cheese wedges


    ... and ... Nutella ... this probably shouldn't even be on the list but it makes me happy!

    Vermont maple syrup makes me incredibly happy. So does Nutella.

    Spinach is another that makes me feel good afterwards. And I do love cheese (Gromit).

    I like lots of color. Mixed fresh fruits and mixed fresh sauted veggies make me feel good. I even feel the urge to take picture of the food because it looks so pretty. :)
