Ok, this is probably a ridiculous question. I'm known for loving my snacks..... with my sandwich at lunch I need something else, usually cheese doodles, dorito's, etc. I know..... horrible! DH and I are on a slim fast kick for breakfast and trying to eat healthier during the day. I'm having my sandwich on a low carb wrap, but I still feel the need to munch on a snack. Any ideas other than fruit, that might be ok? I'm not a huge fan of pretzels.... are there any other things that I could eat? I know the answer is probably, no.... but I Figured it was worth a shot. Thanks.

How about fat free pringles? Or fat free pudding?

Carrots - I think the crunchiness is satisfying. Veggies in general are better than fruit because they have less sugar.
pretzels have lots of carbs.
What is it that you crave about the snack? Is it the crunch? or the saltiness?

Maybe soy crisps? They are like chips but much better for you.

what about the thin crisps from I believe Nabisco? They have cheese nips, ritz snack mix and wheat thins for the salty thing or oreos, chips ahoy and graham crackers for sweet and only 100 calories.

Have you tried the baked Lay's chips? They have baked potato chips and Doritos now and they don't have that Olestra in them either. they are much lower in fat and calories. I also snack a lot on Jolly Time Healthy Pop microwave popcorn. On WW it's 2 pts for the whole bag and pretty good.
I also eat baby carrots almost every day with lunch. Sometimes I bring cucumber slices too. I need a little more than a sandwich usually to fill me up and that way I also get a serving or two of veggies in.

I was also going to suggest carrots. I love the crunch! Also celery is good.

Re: What can I snack on with lunch?
Thanks ladies. I don't really have a reason why I love snacks, just like the stuff that is bad for me. Ok, so what if I snack on carrots and celery, is there a dip or maybe even blue cheese dressing that I can have with it? Low fat? etc? Thanks!
