1. Fresh fruit is the perfect way to satisfy a sweet tooth. Try 1 cup of blueberries or mango, 2 cups of raspberries, 28 grapes or ½ of a medium cantaloupe for a refreshing snack.
2 . Vegetables are great when you want something crunchy. Try a bell pepper with 2 tablespoons of hummus, sliced cucumbers or carrot sticks with low-fat dressing.
3 . Looking for a savory snack? Try some dairy products. One cheese wedge or string cheese and a few crackers, ½ cup low-fat cottage cheese with some fruit or a low-fat yogurt all have about 100 calories.
4 . Really hungry? Try a hearty helping of tomato-based vegetable soup, a hard boiled egg with a piece of low-calorie toast, roll some lunch meat into a lettuce leaf, or try some mashed avocado and chopped tomatoes in a small pita.

Hi HB,
ReplyDeleteEnjoyed your post...Carrot sticks? Seriously? What's wrong with chocolate fudge cake? Have you really changed so much? HA!
And please,no leotards....It boggles the mind.....Butterfly
Hello my little Butterfly ,
ReplyDeleteI was giving advice to others , my snacks are still chocolate fudge cake or any type of sweets for that matter . do not tell on me OK.
It has to be the leotards or my famous speedos that my son bought me , take your pick (laughing my butt off).
How are you been my little Butterfly ? I will be working this weekend for my son , he told my grands they was going away for the weekend and he wanted them to take care of me , I have a lot of things lined up to get into and it will be so much fun . I told the kids and they think it's great .
Good hearing from you my little butterfly .
