I got breakfast and lunch down pat w eggs, turkey, salads fruits. Dinner and smachs r killing me

Answer 1

I like Lays poppables and Rold Gold cheddar pretzels as salty snacks. Sweet I like Fiber one Brownies and similar. I also do a banana around 3:00 cravings. I’m sure my favorite dinner will be different Then others. Really it’s about finding what you like and can eat all the time. Mine is homemade hummus with veggies and 1 pt pita grilled.  

Answer 2

I use 4 pt Quest bars as my snacks. make sure you scan them, as some are 4 and some are 5.

@micron where do i find the quest bars?  

---

They are in most grocery stores, they are protein bars. in my grocery they are also in the Health food section. good luck to you on your weight loss journey!  

---

Agreed! Quest bars are so good!  

Answer 3

Me too with the Poppables the ones I get they are in little bags I think about 10 and only 70 calories. They are good too I get low small pretzels. 100 calorie pop corn. I usually after dinner don't eat any snacks. Rare. But have those on hand just in case.  

Answer 4

A banana with two tablespoons of PB2 mixed with water for 1 SP on blue has been a go to lately (you can even top it with 6 (yes, 6 and not 7, lol) Lily’s semi sweet chocolate chips for 0 points! )

Answer 5

A pink lady apple and one piece of good and gather light string cheese (target brand) is only 1 point on blue. Another fave snack of mine. If I have a really bad sweet tooth, I eat a Built bar for 3 points.  

Answer 6

Pretzel sticks and spicy hummus, fat free cottage cheese and cherry tomatoes topped with salt and pepper and a little everything but the bagel seasoning. Yum!  

Answer 7

Built bars solve my sweet craving hands down. Lots of flavors to pick from and most are 3-4 pts. They give you a protein boost too which helps me justify eating them. Lol I’ve recently become addicted to Bada Bean Bada Boom for salty and crunchy. They are flavored roasted broad beans and come in at 2-3 pts for one serving.  

Answer 8

I love the nips coffee and chocolate hard candy sold at Wallgreens satisfies my sweet tooth and lasts awhile! 1 1/2 point for 1!  

Answer 9

Premier protein shakes. for 2 pts. they taste like a milkshake when you blend them with ice. I put mine in my Ninja blender. they come in small cartons and can be found in Walmart or grocery stores. I also like string cheese, fresh fruit, chocolate or snickerdoodle flavored hummus with either a few pita chips or mini pretzels, veggie straws, sf pudding made with almond milk. I occasionally make a root beer float with diet root beer and a 1/2 c slow churned ice cream. it’s delicious with diet orange crush too. you just have to find what you like.  

Answer 10

Quaker chocolate rice cake (2pts) 2Tbsp PB2(1pt) & bananna(0) pts. I spread the peanut butter on the rice cake and mash a banana on top . yummyyyyy  all for only 3 points .

@olivares1938 what is PB2. Where do you buy it?  

---

@olivares1938 , PB2 is a powdered peanut butter that you mix with a little water. Most grocery stores have it. I got mine at Walmart. Ask your store manager.  

Answer 11

I hear you! It works if you work it. I’ve been very l honestly have not been.  

Answer 12

Built bars 3 pts and now sold on amazon Vermont Turkey pepperoni sticks 1pt, veggie sticks 4pt serving. Weight everything! Go by grams not number in servings.

@lamonica2127 unfortunately not all the flavors of Built Bars are available on Amazon.  

---

@macao oh really? I'm still buying online but was told they are on amazon, didnt realize it wasn't all.  

---

@lamonica2127 nope, the ones I like best aren't on Amazon. I was sad.  

Answer 13

I have started eating an apple or cheese stick in the afternoon, sometimes I eat a built bar (maybe once a week, they are a bit pricey).  

Answer 14

I assume peanut butter 2 tablespoons 1 pt sounds low to me.  

Answer 15

The only things that satisfies my sugar craving is fruit. The only thing that satisfies my thirst is water, and the only thing that satisfies my hunger is real food, not in a box with a list of ingredients. Eat natural and you will be satisfied!
