Snacks

So the hunger is back...but so is the weight gaining! I want to eat nothing but pudding, cupcakes, and chips/salsa, but I know that's not a good idea :)

 What have you been snacking on!?

Re: Snacks

  • I can't get enough citrus fruit!  The salsa is not so bad for you, especially if its fresh. Have you tried salsa with whole wheat pita, or some kind of wheat chips?

  • Salads - I've switched from creamy cesar dressing to the vinaigrette kind to lower fat content

    Fresh fruits and veggies (favourites are sugar snap peas, pears. grapefruit and red cabbage - I peel off a leaf and just nibble)

    Yogurt

     Cream cheese on crackers

    Nature Valley sweet and salty bars

    Fruit loops - I'll grab a handful and just eat them without milk.

    Chips and salsa are not that bad.  Try the baked Tostitos, they are great!  Also put them in a bowl so you can control portion size. Or put a little low fat cheese on it and make nachos!

    I like dried fruit,  carrots, applesauce and cereal for snacks.

  • I forgot to add string cheese! High in protein and only 80 calories!

  • String cheese and crackers, yogurt (regular and Greek), fruit, cottage cheese are the usuals for me. Of course today it's just been chocolate and garlic bread. Not together but they are both delish!!!

    I also drink protein shakes mid morning at work to get me though to lunch time. I get them at Costco, they are chocolate flavored and have something like 30 g protein.

  • Cereal. All day long...I pretty much only use bowls and spoons these days. Haha. Choose a healthy one and dig in. :)

  • I have been a sucker for clementines and kiwi.  Homemade popcorn with butter and nutritional yeast is AMAZING and it has a ton of vitamin B in it too!

    This is pretty much me too except carrots with ranch dip. And I will eat peanut butter on crackers for my mid-morning snack before lunch.
