Banana's Yum! I think snacking on different fruits are a good idea!

I also like snacking on corn flakes......Yum! I just had banana topped corn flakes a few seconds ago.

I'm trying hard to stick to a "diet"....lets go with dietary "changes" because I want this to be a forever thing....and I have found that if I concentrate on MUFA's, I'm not so hungry.

That said, when I do want a snack between meals, I have found that...for me...2 Dove promises dark chocolate holds me over. It is enough to satisfy my sweet tooth, helps raise blood sugar to stave off hunger and is a small dose of good fat. Dark Chocolate also contains flavonoids which are good for the heart and immune system. :)

It's kinda like cheating...but not.

Fiber one bars - always have one in my purse for a snack or meal replacement. Great flavor, filling, 9 grams of fiber, calories 140.

I often snack on Grapes in the morning since breakfast is early so I can get to work on time, and lunch isn't til after 1......I have some dinner recipes at home, but I'm not sure of the calorie content.....
One easy, yet delicious dinner I found was using Boneless chicken breast, pounded flat, spread about 2tbsp of reduced fat cream cheese on it top with salsa and reduced fat Cheddar, bakes at 350 for 20 minutes covered with foil, and 10 minutes uncovered. (I usually cut each chicken breast in half to reduce portion size to 4ozs)
I have the calories at home for that recipe, I'll have to look, but I know it isn't that many calories.......

Progresso 99% Fat Free Minestrone Soup. 1/2 can is 100 calories, 1g of fat, 4g of fiber!

I am doing Weight Watchers. I eat a whole can for lunch. A whole can of this is only 2 points. This is yummy, full of veggies and beans and very filling. I can then snack on a fat free yogurt and some fruit in the afternoon.

I also snack on wheat & honey pretzels. They kind of take care of the sweet and salty cravings at the same time and are very low in fat. If I eat them slow and drink lots of water, they help fill me up.

cut up an apple in slices, sprinkle on cinnamon, and a handful of raisins, then steam it with a bit of water.

Nuts are a good snack I like sliced almonds(1/4 cup is 170 cal.)I usually use 1/8
eat often small amounts(every 2-3 hours)
eat whole grain foods
chick peas snack
for dinner you can measure your pasta and chickpeas with a little olive oil and losts of parsley and garlic and that is yummy.
quaker granola bars -- they have a variety from 90 cal on up.
For me eating a big meal early and then
having a snack at night seems to help.
There are also protein powders/bars.
I was told to not eat starch when i get up in the morning start w/pomegranet-grape juice 6oz. w/ 1/2 scoop protein powder. or an egg then eat the starch about 1/2 hour later.
I hope this helps you a bit. Good luck on changing your eating habbits so it is not a diet but a way of life. I am and it is hard --- I am taking baby steps.

I hope these ideas will help you. Hugs zecilkl

MY FAVORITE IS I TAKE ABOUT 1-2 CUPS OF MIX FROZEN FRUIT MY FAVORITE IS BLUEBERRIES, STRAWBERRIES, AND RASBERRIES, 1/2 BANANA, ALITTLE BIT OF PLAIN LOW FAT YOGART AND A FEW ICE CLUBS AND BLEND TO MAKE A SMOOTHIE

One of my favorite snacks is cake with fruit however I make it without the milk, butter and eggs which adds the calories. Mix your favorite cake mix with diet soda only(YES, I said diet soda) and bake. It will not take the suggested time to cook so make you watch it. Also, it will not rise. Once cooked, take out to cool. Once cooled, grab your favorite dessert dishes (I have really nice glasses that I like to use)and your favorite frozen fruit and get ready to mix. First, take some cake and break it up into the dessert dishes. Next add some frozen fruit. Continue layering until the glass is filled. Wrap in plastic and refrigerate for about an hour. The fruit will have melted and added more flavor to the cake. YUM YUM! Top with, fat free whip cream to add the final touch if you like. ENJOY! Its really delicious.

Here is my favorite meal...if I have to take a frozen thing to lunch...IT IS ONLY 300 CALORIES!

HEALTHY CHOICE TURKEY MEDALLIONS-

Traditional Turkey Breast
Roasting enhances the flavor of our lean turkey breast medallions. We pack flavor into our stuffing and savory gravy with herbs, onions, celery and raisins, and complement this traditional, satisfying meal with a corn, peas and carrots vegetable medley and tart cherry crisp dessert.

They used to have a pumpkin desert with raisins in it, it was awesome.

I like this because it is full of flavor and has a desert! AND only 300 calories, perfect for lunch or if you get down to only a few calories allocated for dinner it is very satisfying.

Oh, one more really tasty and low cal frozen meal...hard to find because they are good...SmartOnes Chicken Enchiladas Suizas and it is only 290 calories.

I am sooo hungry now...lol
