I swear...it seems like FOREVER to me between meals - yes....I really like to eat - I think it's the whole needing to chew on something - I haven't really pin-pointed that out yet and I really don't buy snack foods because snack foods to me are Ho-Ho's and Ding Dongs and Twinkies.......OH MY!  So I went on a hunt for some low calorie snacks and compiled this list, because I'm sure I'm not the only one this happens to! 



I thought I'd start with satisfying your sweet tooth first cuz that always seems to be my downfall..the sugar craving...then the salt craving and I think I really like them together!!  

  • 1⁄2 medium apple, baked, topped with 1 Tbsp lowfat yogurt sprinkled with cinnamon (45 calories)
  • 1⁄2 small banana, frozen (45 calories) 
  • 4 oz unsweetened applesauce sprinkled with cinnamon (49 calories) 
  • 1 miniature box of raisins (45 calories) 
  • 2 sugar-free ice pops (30 calories)
