I dunno, snacking is essential for me. Of course, you need to snack correctly.

Snacking isn’t bad, it is important imo. If I won’t snack, I’ll feel bad for the rest of the day. You have to feed that hunger, with at least something.

My problem is that I get majorly hungry around 10-11 if I’ve been eating small meals / small snacks all day. I try to ignore it and eventually go to bed, but I just stay awake listening my gut demanding me to eat. Small stuff doesn’t cut it either…I have to have something big. Argh!

Snacking is my most favorite meal of the day. This is the time when I can be lenient about my choices. And I have more portions of it. I keep fit though even with a lot of snacking.

I think snacking is important and does take time to get used to it. Once you get it into your head that a snack will speed up your metabolism it makes more sense.

I always keep apples in the house and because they are small ones I don’t feel guilty at all.

Totally agree Israel, I think snacking is so important, I don’t know what I’d do if I couldn’t eat between meals. My favourite is dried fruit, nuts, or seeds.

Great post, but I have to say, even though I KNOW there are healthy snacks out there, when I get a craving, I just cannot get rid of it! I’ve even been looking into self hypnosis, via the site http://www.discoverselfhypnosis.com, in order to get around my binge habits! Not that I have a lot of weight to lose, but those last few stubborn pounds just stay stuck to my hips. Arghhhh!

Good knowledge about body metabolism and food requirement. I have learned a lot but snaking should be viewed as time substitute of food when we work or busy with something else. Any how a balance should be strike in food and snaking.

Low carb? Who does that anymore?

Get rid of those things! We used to have a jar of the same thing then changed it to trail mix.

yeah those are a good alternative. I also like macadamia nuts but they’re probably a little high in fat for someone not on a low carb diet.

we have a jar of peanut M&Ms at the office and I bet I eat the equivalent of two servings every day when I walk by it.

I’m going to keep this post in mind to cut down on the extra calories and get some health snacks

I agree, I don’t see why so many people think they need to starve them selves to lose weight… It’s crazy!

Yep, unless that thing that works for you is causing harm to you! Like smoking crack or something similar…

Great thoughts!
The day I ‘embraced’ my snacking habits and transformed them to become more healthy.. was the day I started to see my results of losing weight!

My doctor says I have high sugar level, not so high yet to call it Diabetes (that’s my personal thought though:) but he wrote prescription drugs for me to consume everyday. He did not give a list of ‘eat this, not that’ foods so I did not come back to him again. I took the drugs for 1 month, but after making me feel groggy and irritable all day I stopped. I searched for ‘health foods’ on the internet–that’s why I found this blog, thanks!–and made my personal list of ‘eat this’ foods. And now, after leaving my heartfelt appreciation for this page, I will be clicking the link to ‘100 Calorie Snacks’. Many, many thanks!

I will definitely agree with that… you’ve got to stick with whatever works for you. I’m just glad that there is another option out there!

Thanks!

All the Best,
