chicken breast
boiled eggs
salad packs (hey, look, here's my dinner, or at least something to make my quick stuff healthier when I am starving)

popcorn
seaweed snacks
sparkling flavored water - love La Croix, no calories
various nuts
sweet potato chips
popchips
single serving canned/pouch salmon
triscuits
lemon/lime
spices
jalapenos
homemade wraps - easy to make & control calories
crystal light lemonade

BUMP

Good one OP, instead of the odd bump in your thread now there is a discussion about what bump means running throughout it, surely that is more annoying lol.

MiO
Cottage cheese

Wow lol. Educational thread. I learned a lot. Bump de bump. Rofl.

Bump.. my contribution, weight watchers yogurts, all around 60 calories each, Asda fresh bagged turnip, 13/100, Alpen light granola bars 63 cals each fresh soups from Asda/Morrisons/Sainsbury, best one is carrot and corainder from Asda 70 / 300g.

weirdly enough - parmesan (fresh shaved from block). Rather than having large lump of cheese, 5-10g of this makes for a stronger cheesy flavour with much fewer calories/satfat/sodium. Very good with rocket and balsamic vinegar.

Fresh fruit - at the moment mostly berries/nectarines/kiwi fruits. But whatever the greengrocer has on offer.

Total 0% greek yoghurt - helps bump up protein without fat

Almond milk - only brought a couple of days ago but loving it as I can't have too much dairy without getting ill and this is the first substitute I've found that I really like.

Thinly sliced salami - I like stronger tasting foods and this gives me taste without too many calories as its so thin its practically see through and I only have 2 slices.

Frozen spinach - I chuck it in all my curries and spicy stews and no one complains because it basically disappears. Adds veg and especially iron with out a fuss.

Spices and fresh herbs - I can't eat bland food and neither will my dh/kids so this adds flavour without the calories.

Nuts - just 3 or 4 brazil nuts as a snack or 10g of slivered almonds on top of my fruit salad gives a nice crunchy protein hit.

Special K 100 calorie bars Also the special k cracker chips are really good. Anyone have anything for chocolate cravings? :happy:

Bump

;-)

nonfat greek yogurt w/ spenda and natural vanilla flavoring with frozen dole sugar free strawberries. Better than ice cream and great protein and fruit!

I was craving something sweet last night and had leftover calories. I toasted a whole wheat oro rounds and put Nutella on them. I ate all of it, 100 +200 but if you just eat 1 slice and 1 tablespoon its not bad for 150. It def satisfied my sweet tooth. Oh, had fat free milk too. And still stayed under goal for the day. Better than a Little Debbie.

Make up a low cal jelly ( whatever flavour you prefer) with only 1 cup water. Allow to cool then beat through a tub of low fat cottage cheese. Mix some berries through and pour into a bowl, or into muffin pans - (silicone may be best to get them out easy.) Put in fridge to firm up.

oo this sounds yummy will have to try this thanks

great list!

zip fizz is awesome, it has only 10 calories but provides alot of nutrients so many you would have to consume 6,000 calories just to get its nutrients, i talk to the zip fizz lady to much lol but it fizzy so it kinda tricks you thinking its something like a soda but its just enhanced water

I came to be the jerk that said...BUMP but she already deactivated her account. Waaahhh!

But to contribute to these great ideas I love tilapia. Seriously has become my second favorite fish after salmon. Pan fried in a bit of olive oil and the tiniest pat of butter w lemon juice and pepper. Mmmmmmm
