    almonds and cashews make great snacks, veggies of course, apples you can grab and go, granola bars that are not chocolate covered. cheerios, not just for breakfast :), and thats all I can think of right now

    Greek yogurt is always a fave...it really keeps me full.

    Cherries, strawberries, banana, raspberries, any fruit that is high fiber.

    Nature's Valley oatmeal/chocolate thins (they aren't the best, but an 80 cal chocolate snack over a candy bar is a good sub)

    Veggies and hummus.

    Cherry tomatoes.

    Hummus! It's so tasty and perfect alternative for dipping your whole wheat pita chips and veggies - skip the ranch dressing and try garlic hummus, sundried tomato hummus, etc - so many flavors to choose from. Also, go for all kinds of fruits and veggies, summer is great for fresh produce. Almonds and dried fruits are a great snack too. Let us know what you end up getting, you may end up giving us some great ideas too!

    I just ate Gen Soy Sweet Crisps (chocolate). I bought them for a road trip but now I try to keep them at work. Sweet without being over the top.

    100 cal pack nuts
    A slice of deli ham, with a smear of whipped cream cheese, wrapped around a pickle
    A slice of prosciutto wrapped around a handful of arugula
    Hummus, my fav is the cilantro jalapeno...Trader Joe's brand
    A good recovery drink: 1/2 banana, 1/2 serving nutella, blended into 1 cup of skim milk
