My nutritionist gave me a few ideas, but I am now bored w/ them. The doctor says 6 meals a day----I need meals I can grab out of a bag or quickly make. I have a job that busy w/ patients all day. I want to keep my meals going to feed my metabolism, but I find it hard at times. I will take any suggestions!! Thanks,

My all time favorite snack: Quaker Soy Crisps BBQ or White Chedder

18 crisps per serving/ 110 calories/ 0 fat/ 15 carbs/ 2 fiber/ 4 sugar/

6 protein

I'm fairly restricted right now so eating 18 crisps in one sitting is possible but I take it slow.

They are yummy and satisfy my need for crunch!

For a fast snack I usually choose Peanut Butter...with banana, wasa crackers, apples, or just by the spoonfull!

I also like to have 1/2 of an avocado, sprinkled w/ salt....just spoon it out! So good and cheap this time of year! Very good for you, too.

2 slices of canadian bacon with a slice of low fat cheddar in between (I love Cabot light cheddar)...and eaten like a little sandwich!

Hope that helps.

light mozzarella string cheese...I also love the soy crisp but creamy ranch is my favorite...they are so good. The turkey pepperoni is good too. My nutritionist told me the protein in peanut butter is not enough to overcome the amount of fat in it. She told me not to eat it.

Refried beans, hummus, there are quite a few snacks out there, you might do a google search for low fat low calorie snacks...Deanna

Thank you all so much for great ideas!!! I will keep them in mind when I grocery shop this weekend. I have really gotten a lot from this website and appreciate the knowledge. txs~~~

String cheese is an excellent one for me. yogurt works, I know that is so diet cliche but I have more restriction with regular yogurt than I do with meat sometimes. I also like to take my fave lunch meat from the deli sliced deli thin, ( i really like roast beef, ham/fat free turkey) and put about a half a tablespoon of philly cream cheese on it and maybe a green onion and roll it into a little roll and two of those will really make me full and they are very tasty. I just make a 4-6 the night before and they are awesome just to grab and eat at a moment's notice.
