fresh fruit
greek yogurt
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)
granola bars or protein bars I like most kinds but try to choose the ones with under 100 cal0 -
Skinnytaste deviled eggs are awesome snack item for me.
I'm looking this up!0 -
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 lemonade0 -
Also, Fiber One brownies, warmed up with a scoop of frozen Lite Cool Whip on top!
that sounds amazing!
I have both of those at home, why didn't I ever think of that?!?
Gonna try that when I get home from work today.
thanks for the post
and I didn't even have to bump because I actually had something to say... yay!0 -
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.0 -
pb2! I cannot get enough peanut butter in my life0

MiO
Cottage cheese0 -
Very dark chocolate - like 85% or more. I dunk it in a cup of hot cocoa - cocoa powder (sugar free) hot water and a bit of milk and let it melt in my mouth - keeps the chocolate cravings away and makes me happy
(and on the bump thing - MFP really does need to put a follow thread or bookmark on this board - I totally agree with the OP that if you are looking for what seems like interesting information - and this thread is - then getting pages of people saying "bump" is really unhelpful and annoying)0 -
Wow lol. Educational thread. I learned a lot. Bump de bump. Rofl.0

For me : -
Blueberries
Boiled Eggs ( loving duck eggs right now and very filling)
Fage 0% Greek Yoghurt
Wild Alaskan Salmon
Poached Salmon
Protein Powder (though oddly finding that casein protein powder is nowhere near as satiating as whey protein)
85% dark chocolate (relatively safe for me to have around as I don't like it enough to binge on it)
Green And Blacks Hot Chocolate (made with water)
Pears (usually replaces dessert)
Nakd bars ( instead of protein bars, no added sugar, just raw fruit and nut)
Cottage Cheese (I find a 200g tub really fills me up)0 -
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.0 -

Special K 100 calorie bars Also the special k cracker chips are really good. Anyone have anything for chocolate cravings? :happy:0
