What are your favorite low calorie snacks



Recommended Posts

Mine is the light baby bell cheeses and the laughing cow cheese . I found gluten free rice cracker with hardly any carbs. They are tiny but so are the laughing cow cheeses.

For 5:2 fasting days, I like a hard-cooked egg as a snack (they are 50g, ~78 cals) cos they are filling and good for you. I also like a pot of light jogurt (chocolate flavor is my fave) for 77 cals. Or a cup of coffee or tea with some milk in. I mostly don't snack on fast days cos I like to hoard my cals for lunch and dinner. :lol:

Low calorie is relative, when I think low calorie I always think, "lowest possible calorie level with highest possible Protein content that are also the most filling", which means that technically they probably aren't the lowest possible calories. So my faves are plain greek yogurt, salad with homemade mustard vinaigrette, devilled eggs made without mayo, and my new super favorite, sent to me by Fiddleman & Phoenix, high protein salami sticks, with only 80 cals per huge stick, tons of flavor, and 15g protein, woot!

I always eat greek yogurt on my fast days, with berries. Lots of Protein and Fiber. I don't "snack" on fast days either, I only eat lunch and supper or I would feel like I am getting out of control (the more often I eat, the more hungry I feel!).

Nice to see you on here! What is the name of those salami sticks?? I live in Canada, so I am not sure it is something I can get here or not. And I would love your recipe for mustard vinaigrette!

Hi there sweetums! I thought I was such a genius when I "invented" the mustard vinaigrette, only to discover that this is the essential vinaigrette the French invented centuries ago :/ oh well, it's delicious!!

your favorite oil (olive, walnut, coconut, etc.)

a very strong unadulterated mustard like stone ground

pepper

vinegar to taste, balsamic if you want to get fancy!

Mine is def Mini Babybel Light cheese. As well as 90 calorie FiberOne PB Bar. Also, love (if we are going that high 100) 100 cal guacamole pouches, either Wholly brand or my fav is Marketside (Walmart) w/thin sliced cukes and red pepper slices.

      Day 1 of pre-op liquid diet (3 weeks) and I'm having a hard time already. I feel hungry and just want to eat. I got the protein and supplements recommend by my program and having a hard time getting 1 down. My doctor / nutritionist has me on the following:
      1 protein shake (bariatric advantage chocolate) with 8 oz of fat free milk 1 snack = 1 unjury protein shake (root beer) 1 protein shake (bariatric advantage orange cream) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein bar 1 protein shake (bariatric advantace orange cream or chocolate) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein soup (chicken) 3 servings of sugar free jello and popsicles throughout the day. 64 oz of water (I have flavor packets). Hot tea and coffee with splenda has been approved as well. Does anyone recommend anything for the next 3 weeks?

        All I can tell you is that for me, it got easier after the first week. The hunger pains got less intense and I kind of got used to it and gave up torturing myself by thinking about food. But if you can, get anything tempting out of the house and avoid being around people who are eating. I sent my kids to my parents' house for two weeks so I wouldn't have to prepare meals I couldn't eat. After surgery, the hunger was totally gone.

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.
