Summer Squash is great! Along with a host of other vegetables. Try any of them with some no calorie Salad Dressing made by Walden Farms. \n\nThe vegetables count as negative calories because you spend more energy digesting them than what they can supply. And the Salad Dressing has 0 calories in it. You can't go wrong with that for a snack. You could virtually snack all day like this.\n\nYou can find the 0 calorie salad dressing in your local market where the diet protein bars are located or you can buy it online at      WaldenFarms.com\n\nHope this helps!

The slimfast mealbars are excellent and have only 200 calories and are chocked with vitamins and minerals.  \nBuy the low Carb ones, esp. the chocolate fudge.  Pure heaven

Pretzels have refined flour and salt. If you need a crunch factor, try sliced cucumbers, carrots, or vegetable chips. Baked pita chips, Kashi TLC crackers, that type of thing.

wean yourself off it or find healthier replacements because you're probably craving the sugar.\n\nTry honey and fruits like apples or whatever you like which will satisfy your need for something sweet.\n\nYou can even try lollypops (just check they don't have a lot of calories, most have barely any) and sticks of water with frozen juice (we call them ice poles here? very low in calories and YUMMY)  \n\nI hear you get great jelly which is really low in calories and virtually no fat at all.\n\nTry things made with sweeteners instead, including drinks, if you are okay with sweeteners.\n\nThe occasional cake is okay. Just keep an eye on your teeth to make sure you're not erroding them. \n\nMaybe as well as the sweet thing or instead of, if you need something with a cakey texture get those water biscuits. Kind of like rich tea with basically no calories. Good to have a little munch on and feel good that you're actually eating something at least.

1. Substitutions! Your favorite snacks don't have to be forbidden; in fact, if you make them so, they'll seem even more appealing. So substitute fat-free pringles for the high-fat potato chips, or nonfat frozen yogurt for high-calorie ice cream. Look for low-fat or fat-free salad dressing, light mayo, low-fat cheese, etc. You really get used to them quickly; I won't eat regular ice cream anymore, yuck!\n\n2. Avoid excess snacking by popping a piece of gum in your mouth when you've got the munchies but aren't hungry.\n\n3. Drink lots and LOTS of water.\n\n4. Fiber-rich foods (fruits, veggies, whole grains) fill you up faster and make you feel full longer.\n\n5. Low-fat dairy products (look for Yoplait's or Dannon LIGHT smoothies, both are really good) have been shown to shrink waists.\n\n6. Exercise at least 4 times a week but no more than 6 times a week. (You need at least one recovery day.) Any type of cardio will shed the pounds: swimming, running, jumping rope, playing sports, biking. On your day off, keep active. Play some recreational badminton with friends, or take a leisurely walk.\n\n7. Don't skip meals! It slows your metabolism, therefore making it harder to lose weight. Instead, eat small meals at least six times a day. Just be sure to eat the RIGHT foods: whole grains (tortillas, breads, pasta), fruits (dried and fresh), nuts, vegetables, low-fat dairy products, etc. Remember to eat a balanced diet including everything in the food pyramid. A deficiency in any vitamin or mineral compromises your energy stores and your overall health.\n\n8. Keep a list of heart healthy snacks on the fridge to remind you not to reach for the cheesies.\n\n9. Remember that weight loss takes time. You didn't gain it all overnight, and you're not going to lose it overnight. But if you stick to a healthy diet and an active lifestyle, you WILL lose the inches.\n\nGood luck!

change these things:\n\nbagels - whole meal bagels\n\ncream cheese - low fat cream cheese\n\n(keep the veggies and fruit)\n\npizza - try buying your own pizza bases and adding your own healthy toppings and low fat cheese\n\npasta is good as long as the sauces arent full of cream, butter or cheese.  (tomato sauses with nice herbs is good)\n\ntacos umm...... (ive never had them but i know just from looking at them that they are bad for you. try buying tortillas and making your own at home. STAY OUT OF TOCOBELL)\n\nchicken is good as long as you eat the grilled type\n\nrice and salads are all right \n\npopcorn is all right  as long as it dosent have melted butter or caramel or tones of salt all over it. \n\nREMEMBER: you can have junk food - but in moderation - like as a treat

Drink a lot of water, and if you still get the munchies try fruits or some kind of low fat granola bar.

Instead of going to the candy aisle for a good snack, try to find some healthy foods that interest you. Try baby carrots in low fat ranch dip, or celery with peanut butter. If you feel a little weak, and need a pick-me-up, grab a couple of ritz crackers (starch), peanut butter (protien), and eat.\n\nYou can also, when eating, limit the size of your snack, which is guarenteed to reduce your waistline. Say, if the size of your "snack" is larger than your fist, there's a good chance that it could be a meal instead of "just a snack".\n\nSigning off,\n     Trish

Frozen veggies like green beans, cauliflower, corn, peas, broccoli, etc... are wonderful in the micro. Some brands come in sauce, but check the nutritional info on the boxes to see exactly what's in it. It may taste great, but be LOADED with salt.\n\nCanned beans are good too for protein. Trader Joe's sells a delicious Three-Bean Salad that is great cold by itself or over lettuce, or even hot, mixed with other veggies. I'm sure other stores have similar stuff.\n\nOf course, there's always cereal and milk. Good source of protein, calcium, fiber and carbs. Pick healthy grain cereals instead of sugary ones if you can.\n\nPersonally, I'd stay away from the frozen TV dinners unless you read the packages carefully. Many are just LOADED with salt and other stuff like MSG that you probably don't want to consume in mass quantities.\n\nOh and don't forget baked potatos! They're easy in the micro and only take a few minutes. Sweet potatos work too. :)

Try celery. You burn more calaries chewing it than the actual calories in it!
