What do you think of when you think about low calorie snacks? Me, I think about rice cakes and salads. Actually, I no longer count calories, but I know this is important when you are first learning how “diet”. You have to educate yourself on proper serving sizes to succeed with the weight loss game.
Usually a low calorie snack is going to be somewhere between 150 and 250 calories and something you are eating mid morning or mid afternoon. The goal is to feel satisfied and also not cause a huge spike in blood sugar so that your energy levels remain high and constant throughout the day.
Here are some healthy diet snacks that are low-cal that you may want to keep in mind when creating your weight loss plan:
On the Go: Fruit and yogurt parfait from McDonald’s is only 130 calories Need to go shopping: apple and skim milk, 170 calories Packing for work: Wheat thins individual bag and mozzarella (string) cheese is 240 calories Stay at home mom: Fruit and low-fat yogurt smoothie about 200 calories Trying to make it to dinner: whole wheat toast with peanut butter, 220 calories
All of these will satisfy hunger and get you toward your weight loss goal!
