I'm just curious as to what everyone here Snacks on? I mean, to get rid of that 'hunger' or 'craving' that one can get in between meals.....I was thinking something like a few cubes of cheese or string cheese, a small yogurt, but I'm looking for healthy, quick and convenient ideas, if everyone would be so kind as to share.

Thanks in advance! :laugh:

Oh, and have i told everyone that I LOVE THIS SITE? All the support, ideas and just uplifting words! Thank you everyone! :thumbup:

I like the Land O Lakes Snacking Colby Jack Cheese, beef jerky, a spoon of pb, a handful of nuts...I try to do foods with a higher protein content.

i like: hummus, ostrich jerkey, fruit, veggies, cottage cheese, yogurt, nuts, edamame.

I have been trying to break the snacking habit.

I have a fish bowl 1/2 full with slips of paper, each paper has a different activity on it, from doing a set of arm curls, walking around the block, playing a game on the computer, writing a letter via snail mail to a friend....I have things from the outrageous (look for a new "Oscar" dress online) to something I've put off, like organizing a drawer.

When ever my munchie train needs to be derailed, I reach into my fish bowl.

What a fabulous idea! I too am trying (not always successfully) to break the head-hunger/munchie madness. I've tried to pick up doing my various crafts etc, but in the summer it just doesn't have any appeal. This idea of yours though may just be the thing I need...THANKS!

well if my head needs something (which it usually does a few times a week) i have a skinny cow ice cream (80 cals) or if i'm really craving junk food i'll have a weight watcher frozen dessert. Head hunger is the one thing i still struggle with---especially while watching tv at night. i don't usually snack too much during the day.

Yeah, night time is the worse time for the snacking cravings to start.

I eat sugar free popcilsles and sf fudgesicles, somethings SF choc. pudding. In between meals if I am hungry I eat almonds string cheese or a lite yogurt.

Doc fusses at me BIG TIME for snacking. No snacks allowed. But, when I mess up , I usually eat string cheese, or those little triangle shaped,lite, foil wrapped cheese that comes in the round box. A handful of almonds or a small piece of fruit.

Those are laughing cow cheese. I spread that on Kellogs garlic & herb

fiber crackers which are pretty low calorie for crackers.
