Help..What filling snacks are you all eating?

Alot of days I feel like a piece of fruit makes me even more hungry! I also find that I am hungry after dinner as well. We usually eat by 5:30pm and come 7:30pm I'm hungry. Same thing at around 3pm. Just wondering what filling snacks are out there that aren't horrible for you like th 100 cal packs.

I have been having sugar-free Jello at night. Not the healthiest, but its only 10 calories a serving. I bought cheese sticks too.

I love the new WW Multigrain chips. I have a lowfat yogurt, fruit or today one of my 'snacks' is oatmeal and an apple and for my afternoon snack, today I am having Starbucks Chat Icon and I also have a grapefruit.

More snack ideas are: Luna bar, peanut butter on one slice of whole wheat, whole wheat english muffin with Laughing Cow cheese, multigrain chips with low fat cheese (or FF cheese). If you go to weightwatchers.com, they have lots of snack ideas.

I find at night, after dinner, when I'm still a little hungry a cup of hot chocolate totally does the trick. It's only one point, fills me up and it's yummy!

I like snacking on nuts. They have a decent amount of calories - say, 180 for about 20 cashews - but they are really filling because of all the protein and the healthy fats. So 180 calories of cashews saves me from picking at a cookie here, some tortilla chips there, etc. that would add up to way more.

100 calorie snack bags of the microwave popcorn... I am amazed at how much popcorn you get for 100 calories!

Re: Help..What filling snacks are you all eating?

I love my Polly-O reduced fat string cheese with an apple for a snack. It's a little sweet, a little salty and a lot filling.

I will also do a WW yogurt with a snack sized container of 2% cottage cheese for a quick snack.

At home I have cucumber, carrot and celery sticks ready to go. I soak them in balsamic vinegar and a little salt or lemon juice and a little salt and they are fantastic as a crunchy snack in front of the tv.

Salsa and baked Tostitos and 94% fat free popcorn are my other go to snacks for munching.

Oh and SOUP! Canned soup - Progresso light soups are super low in points - and even the regular chickarina is like 2 points for about half the can!
