Does anyone have any suggestions of low calorie snacks to use instead of fruit? I'm starting to think protein based snacks might be better at keeping hunger at bay...also I am trying to cut down on sugar intake, a lot of which is from the amount of fruit I eat. Any suggestions welcomed thanks :)

    I love Kashi's TLC Peanutty Dark Chocolate Layered Granola Bars. 130 calories, and they fill me up for hours.

    These are my favorite. High protein, low fat and carb and reasonable sodium. http://www.healthysnackin.com/categories/

    Really nice company to buy from too. The beef with pineapple is sooooo yummy.

    hummus and veggies
    chicken with cheese, fruit, or nuts
    trail mix
    greek yogurt with some almonds

    I am finding if I make my snacks more protein based, they seem to keep me full longer.
