What do you eat for healthy snacks between meals?  Currently,I have a bag of hard pretzels, but they have 100 calories in one pretzel and I'm not too crazy about them.

    I'm a big fan of snacks involving peanut butter.  Not just peanut butter cups!  I feel like it makes me feel fully much longer though!

    Drinking a lot of water also helps me.  It keeps you full and has so many health benefits.  I think it is great you are working on getting healthy! Sometimes I buy a fitness or health magazine to keep me motivated and give me new ideas.  I also have a picture of me and dh on our honeymoon as my computer background.  It motivates me to stay on track.  GL!

    I am not big on artificial sweetners and sometimes I get sick of water so I flavor it with lemon juice or stick some limes in it.

    Nuts, fruit, cheese, pretzels, granola bars, and cereal--I'm a big cereal fan, since I have a pre-schooler at home and we always have it on hand.  Right now I am liking the new Honey Kix.  I also keep a bag of microwave popcorn in my desk--usually the smart balance kind.  You have to really watch the trans fats in the other brands.

    It's hard to find variety, I know.
