Dietbetters and Healthy Snackers

[mrsclark731]

I'm no help.

As I've mentioned before, I can't snack or else I fall down a rabbit hole. If I don't snack then I get to have alcohol at the end of the night (some nights). It is my reward

And this is why I didn't join in on the dietbet fun. All the food, all the time!

Can you take a portion of wheat thins out of the box, break them in half, then eat? So your hands get something to do (usually the reason I shovel crunchy snacks willy nilly) and then you get to eat them? But don't have access to the whole box?

Also getting an apple cutter / corer totally increased the appeal of snacking on apples. Also easier to dip in peanut butter!

Mini rice cakes. But I'll admit I can eat an entire bag in a sitting.

Nuts! I keep nuts at my desk and when I need a snack, I just grab a handful. They are healthy and a good source of energy and protein.

Sometimes I'll get a bag of blue diamond brand chocolate almonds. They're almonds covered in cocoa powder, not dipped in liquid chocolate. So good.

I'll have to try those!

Nothing healthy. Except cheese. And then it's on unhealthy amount of cheese.

I'm trying to snack of fruits and vegetables more. Like a handful of grapes rather than a handful of trail mix.

+1 for Apple and peanut butter or cheese.

Not crunchy but I also like a hard boiled egg if I'm really hungry. It is a bit more substantial.

[kerrigrooves]

Pop chips and popcorn. SKinnyPop Popcorn is a great snack bc you can eat 4 cups and its about 155 cal - put it in a ziplock bag so you dont overeat.

I have no suggestions other than what has already been posted, but those cocoa almonds are da bomb lilyelayne !

I also love skinny pop and hard boiled eggs. Sometime lunch is half a dozen crackers, an egg and a few pieces of cheese. Yum!

mrsclark731 if I weren't still BFing I wouldn't be snacking but I'm a hungry friggin hippo all day!

I actually told H last night, if I was BFing there is no way I'd be able to diet. Mad props to you and those still BF!

This is kind of unrelated, but I just got my engagement ring back from being sized, cleaned and serviced. I'm so happy to have it back I've been staring at it all day. Hopefully I'll need to get it sized (down) in a couple of months!
