What are some of your "go to" foods that combat evening hunger?

I usually ignore my growling tummy in the evening because I do not want to blow my calorie limits for the day and am usually out of calories by evening.  I eat 750 calories per day.  Well tonight, I had 50 potential calories and have already met my protein goals,  and as usual, I was hungry, so I opened a can of diced tomato's and blended them in my magic bullet, added some spices and nuked it.  It made a very satisfying tomato soup and only had 50 calories in it.  My tummy is all warm and satisfied, and I know that getting to sleep will be easier than usually, and I didn't blow my food plan. 

What do the rest of you do for a snack in the evening that fits into your goals?  Do you starve like I usually do, or do you have something like the soup I just had?  What do you do about evening hunger?  Thanks

I get this frequently now.. my body wants more than the 800 that I've capped as the max.. So, I do what you do.. I eat my veggies! Green beans, pickled veggies.. whatever. Sometimes I slice up a dill really thin and crunch it like chips.. I try to eat my last meal later in the evening, and have been eating more mini-meals as well throughout the day, but I do frequently go to bed with a growling stomach. I need to investigate making kale chips, those might do the trick.

 
I also save my last meal or snack for late...... I have always not been able to fall asleep hungry.

Kale Chips Rule !!!

Hi Frisco,

Do you make or buy kale chips?  How do you make them if you make them...and were do you buy them if you buy them? I would love to try them

thanks

I was going to ask him the same thing. 

I am implementing the idea of eating my meals later starting today, GREAT idea!  And because of that soup last night, I slept like a baby!

Tell us more about those Kale chips please.

I save calories for the evening because I know I'll be hungry. I drink while watching TV so I won't mistake thirst for hunger and then I usually also have either a protein bar, protein hot chocolate or nuts as an evening snack.

I'll be adding the protein hot chocolate, great idea.  Do you use the same one as Patty?

I usually suck down lots of water in the evening, but it doesn't help the hunger.

I always saved calories for a planned evening snack. I know a lot of folks say eating in the evening is "what made us fat" but for me mindless snacking in the evening off bad choices was the problem . A planned snack in the evening actually helps me avoid that, so I had (and still have) one every night.

Veggies are good, or a hard-boiled egg. Now that I have more calories in maintenance, it's nut butter time for me many days.

The veggies are here to stay, and I like the boiled egg idea.  Thank you.
