My problem is that I dont really do snacks. Theres nothing really that I like to eat so In order for me to eat, its gotta be when other people eat otherwise i kind of forget to eat since I'm not hungry. I know thats not good but I try and work around it. If i ever do eat snacks its things like jerky or cheese, etc. Krissy A.K.A NavyWife25

Hummus... you can dip anything in it! Veggies, pitas, crackers, etc...

I guess I am not as creative as some when it comes to healthy snacks. I do pretty basic stuff like fresh fruit, carrot sticks, whole almonds, a protein shake, an oz of hot pepper jack cheese or if I am being really lazy and not very complient I do popcorn with sprinkled parmesean cheese or multi grain gold fish or regular pretzels. Unfortuntelly this surgery doesn't automatically make us compliant and to choose the right food all the time. I believe it does help, but the temptations and addictions are still there and don't just vanish. Sally

Low fat string cheese, nuts, beef jerky, carb control yogurt, wasabe peas, wasabe soy nuts, NSA fudgesicles, SF popsicles.

Usually my snack is either a glass of milk or a cheese slice. Holly

I don't do anything thats not already prepared. Light string cheese, cheese and whole wheat crackers, protein shake. I'm pretty simple with my eating right now because I don't have an appetite. I'm sure when it returns, I'll get more creative. Alice

I like the Babybel cheese by Laughing Cow. It comes in these little rounds that are wax encased. They are so good melted on any kind of meat too!!! I get them at Sam's Club pretty cheap.

I like jerky, string cheese, and nut mix. I am always looking for new ideas for some great snacks.

Some of my snacks include sf jello w or w/o ff whip cream, string cheese, sf/ff pudding, if craving carbs pretzels or air popped pop corn, carrot sticks or diet hot chocolate. I liked the idea of the cheese drops on a cookie sheet. Definitely going to try that one! Oh and I make a southwest dip for the light tortilla chips all you need for the dip is ff sour cream and the southwest seasoning from Pampered Chef. This is what I brought to EVERY holiday get together for me, and for everyone else. No one knew it was ff, and no one cared!

I have fruits and veggies as snacks. Sometimes, string cheese or any kind of cheese, glass of milk, nuts, jello, peanut butter, or a protien shake made with water (105 cal 25g protien)
