So tomorrow I've got plans to see two movies at the mall--

does anyone have any suggestions for healthy snacks I could buy at the market before hitting the movies?
Thanks for the help!

    I bring blueberries lol They last a long time cause they are small. Pop your own low cal popcorn, bring a big purse! :happy:

    Fresh grapes and dried fruits are very portable. I like dried mango, pear, apricots. The flavors are more intense so you can nibble more slowly.

    And I agree with "aliciakarver". Find a good recipe for homemade seasoned/spiced popcorn.
    Don't forget the big purse.

    I agree with mappy....fresh grapes and dried fruits are perfect for the film nibbles. I did this last Saturday with my friend, and we were so into the film we didn't finish all the grapes!!

    Mmmm, some good ideas here! Don't forget that some crunchy snacks may be a little too "loud" for a movie theater. After I started MFP, I would usually eat a meal or snack before and then only drink water during the movie. Some fruit does sound good, though. Maybe some melon or strawberries or .... ?

    Like everyone said just bring some fruits or something. If you don't want to bring any in or can't for whatever reason, then either don't eat any snacks, eat a little something before heading out to the movies.

    Or buy a small popcorn without any butter, and a small juice. As long as you don't go overboard I think you'll be ok. :)
