Snack Suggestions
I need some suggestions for new snacks. I've always kept carrots and celery around for when I wanted a nibble but in the last few months they have become problematic. I've been getting stomach pains after eating them. I suspect I'm developing the same stomach problem my mom has and my grandmother had, which means I'll slowly lose raw fruits and veggies as dietary choices (cooked are fine). But a baggie of cooked carrots isn't really a tidy or convenient nibble to toss in my purse.
What would you throw in your snack bag if raw veggies weren't an option?

A boiled egg
GG crackers (12 calories each) or other whole rye crackers like Finn Crisp (20 calories) - lots of fiber - I find them very filling
A few peanuts in shells (one shell= 11 calories) or a few shelled pistacchios
Raw almonds - a few go a long way
Cooked string green or yellow beans (or both)
Great idea to start this discussion. I can see how it will be very inspirational!

Egg, white only, coked, x 2 = 34 cal, 7.2 proteins
Cauliflower, cooked, 100 gr = 44 cal
Tomatoes, raw, 1 medium = 22 cal
Lettuce, raw, 2 cup = 16 cal
Cheese, nonfat, 100 gr = 55 cal, 12 gr protein
Yogurt, plain, nonfat milk, 160 gr = 90 cal, 9.2 gr proteins
I usually eat proteins + veggies for every meal/snacks.
Calcium + Vitamin D (sun exposure) = fat burner
