Anyone have any good, healthy snacks to take to the movies? I have about 600 calories left for the day and I want something better than carrots or celery or something 'super' healthy :smile: I've got a big purse and lots of room :bigsmile:

    I would just go for the stereotypical popcorn, just without butter. :smile:

    100 calorie packs are always lifesavers!

    Thanks guys.....I'm thinking some carmel corn rice cakes and a 100 cal pack of something should do. I shouldn't be very hungry, but who can watch a movie and not munch on something? I know I can't!

    i need to plan ahead myself next time. Last time I got the nachos and the "small" soda. Over 1000 calories.

    I have some cocoa roasted almonds (100 calorie pack) that are delicious! Chocolatey but not naughty, and you get some protein in there so it is satisfying that way too.

    Last time I went I brought snacks for three of us. I brought 3 100 calorie popcorn bags, a container of rasberries, and a chocolate bar with expresso chips, nuts, etc... At the end of the day each person had around 400 calories (depending on how much chocolate they ate. The best thing is nobody felt deprived. If you are going alone I say the popcorn, the fruit and one serving of chocolate like a truffle or something.

    so you're the person in the back of the theatre always making noise with all those wrappers and plastic bags of goodies thru the entire duration of the movie?
