    1/2 cup of Fiber one with cinnamon sprinkled on top. It's only 60 calories and tastes like cinnamon toast.

    Lots of fresh seasonal fruits and veggies
    apple with PB2
    hard boiled egg
    string cheese
    In the afternoon when I'm at work to satisfy the 3 pm munchies I'll often have a protein/energy bar and a cup of coffee (1/2 decaf)
    ...lots more, can't think...

    ...in balsamic vinegar: 36 calories for 1 cup cukes + 2 tbsp vinegar
    ...in plain yogurt with dill: 59 calories for 1 cup cukes + 1/4 cup yogurt + 2 tsp fresh/dried dill

    I like hummus and baby carrots
    Yes!!! (As long as the hummus is oil free)

    And mangoes! One or two mangoes is a perfect snack.

    Non fat vanilla yogurt and lime juice. I freeze the yogurt, then put it in the blender with a couple ice cubes and juice from half a lime. Mix it up and its a delish sweet and tangy treat! 80 calories.
