And the newest Go Fit Girl! is …
… Regina.
As I had stated before I got the last Comment Contest Tuesday post idea from a friend on Facebook. She received many more comments when she posed the question: What do you eat when you’re feeling very snacky but don’t need (or want) to consume a bunch of calories/fat?
And I am gonna share some of the answers she received:
Popcorn.
Yogurt. Cheese stick. Pretzels and low-fat cream cheese. Turkey pepperoni and mini saltines. Dry cereal. Animal crackers. Avocado.
Pistachios.
Cucumbers in rice vinegar (or other vinegar with a touch of sugar). Sometimes I will consume an entire cucumber this way.
Carrot sticks.
Baby carrots, jelly beans, grapefruit.
Pirate’s Booty, whole cucumber sprinkled with salt, baby carrots, sugar snap peas.
Edamame.
Hard sourdough pretzels.
Almonds.
Try virtual snacking: Imagine for one moment that you are eating the snack that you crave the most. mmmmmmm … tastes good … crunch, crunch … delicious! Next thing you know, craving=satisfied.
Edamame.
100 calorie packs of popcorn, apple with or without peanut butter or dark chocolate.
Laughing Cow cheese triangles, good on celery.
