I tried Hunts No Added Sugar Pasta Sauce. (For .5 cup, it had 35 cal, .5g fat, 7g carbs, 1g protein.) It tasted ok, but was nowhere as good as my Ragu. Also, I could only find it on Amazon and it was expensive.
What I usually do is just set aside my portion of whatever I want pasta sauce on and put as little sauce as I can live with (usually one or two tbsp.)

4 chicken breast
1 can of fat free chicken broth
1 can of fat free cream of mushroom soup
1 can of tomato sauce
1 can of whole mushrooms
Put all in the crockpot and cook for 8 hours. It is so moist and tasty. For those not on a low carb diet the can spoon it over rice or noodles.
You survived what you thought would kill you. Now straighten your crown and go forward like the Queen you are!
I'm following a meal plan for my pre op program and I'm working on finding healthy alternatives to things I use quite regularly. Does anyone know of any good pasta sauce you like that's program healthy? Hopefully not Prego lol!
I often work late hours. So I have found that the later I get home from work the more of a chance there is that make poor food choices such as just grabbing fast food :( But on the days I start my meals in the crock pot as I get ready for work I don't have to worry about working late or eating poorly!!! I LOVE my crock pot. Today's dinner is already in the crock pot for the day-chicken taco's. I need to keep finding new recipes for the crock pot so I don't get bored. Funny how I can get bored when eating healthy but I never seemed to have gotten bored back when I ate fast food burgers and pizza night after night for years :( Ugh
This might sound crazy, but I have never tried humus!! haha Guess this might be the time to give it a try :) Thanks for the idea's.
I do enjoy jerky for a quick snack too. But some times the high sodium makes me hold water and stalls my weight loss :(
My worst snacking time comes in the car on road trips. For that I usually stick to jerkey. Protein, low carb, pretty decent on calories, and if I eat too much my jaw gets so sore I can't really chew for a while.

Grapes, hummus with celery or baked spicy pork skins.
Good luck

What are some of your quick and easy grab and go type snack idea's? In the evening while watching tv is my danger time :/
Thank you for these sites! I didn't know about a couple of them so I will have to try them out. I also like "emily bites".
