Let's discuss healthy low calorie snacks

I've gained SEVEN pounds so far.  SEVEN.  Incredible.  It's due to the fact that my m/s is severe unless I'm eating at every moment.  Due to fatigue, I'm not planning my meals like usual and eating out way more often.  We eat healthy, but I can't bring myself to do the extra work recently!  So far, some ideas I've been using:

-cheese sticks and a few peanuts

-cucumbers and hummus (or baby carrorts and hummus)

-cottage cheese and fruit

Any other ideas?  I'm going to have to eat a little every hour or two until this m/s hunger passes--or else I pass out, which is not good.

  • Yogurt 

    Apple and peanut butter (a small amount of PB Smile or you could try "Better 'N Peanut Butter)

    Granola Bar

    Have you ever had a Green Monster Smoothie? They're AMAZING and full of nutritious spinach. Depending on how you make it they can be reasonably low in calories. https://greenmonstermovement.com/?page_id=581 

  • Here are a few of mine:

    Almonds and Goldfish crackers

    celery and PB

    Apples with cheese

    yogurt and granola

  • fruit smoothie

    peanut butter (1 tsp) and banana

    make your own trail mix

    I love the Cliff Kidz snack bars, they are lowfat and low calorie and you can get a chocolate fix in

    low fat yogurt with grape nuts for that added crunch 

    popcorn- airpopped

    egg white omlette and the lowfat laughing cow cheese

     

  • I haven't had m/s, but I do get sick from the prenatal vit. sometimes and feel like I'm going to yack unless I eat something even after taking the vit. right after breakfast. What's worked for me is:

    cheesesticks

    apples

    yogurt

    Good Luck! Hope you feel better soon!

  • cereal and LF or skim milk

    carrot sticks

    these are not low calorie; more calorie dense, but filling-- raw almonds.
