I'm sure some of these are duplicates of what others have said, but I'm gonna list my ideas here:

100-calorie snacks by Nabisco, Hostess, Hershey's, etc.

I baggied up cereal like Rice Chex, Cheerios, Life, Honey Nut Cheerios; into 100-120 calorie packages so they're ready to eat

I have pretzels and saltene crackers (9 crackers=96 cals)

also cheese/peanut butter crackers, like Keebler/Ritz, I eat HALF a package which is 95-100 calories, at one time... and it's still pretty filling

I can't think of anything else right now. I'm not much into pudding.... OH and light/lite yogurt. that's always good. Dannon has only 80 calories and Yoplait I think is 100-120 or something like that. I prefer Dannon though.

No joke... who has such a ridiculous lack of life that they have to troll the Slimfast forums? LOL.

And I love broccoli, thank you very much.

Here, here, sparkle! At first, I thought he was trying to be funny, but MAN! This guy needs to get a life...he joined the Slim Fast website to abuse people?!?! Stick to MySpace or one of those other loser sites if you have nothing better to do. Let's all report him so he gets shut off the website...

Oh, and you should learn how to spell, "Mr. Perfect."

I understand your broccoli suggestion. However, I don't understand why you would place judgment on others by calling them "naive and weak."

The Slim Fast forums are a place for support, not a place to attack others by name calling.

It's rather sneaky that you use 2 different user names by the way. LMTMAC and JMC1077.

I wish you and your harassment well on your way out of the forums.

LMTMAC what is that supposed to mean? No judgments here, thank you very much! ;)

I'm not sure if I've ever tried diet hot cocoa, but it's so low in calories...worth a shot! Regular is so fattening! What brand do you get? I know Swiss Miss makes one...thanks!

that's a good idea. Also, I like diet hot cocoa = 25 calories in the evening when I am really hungry or sugar free hot apple cider = 15 calories. Comes in a box in the cocoa area/coffee or tea area.

This is a great thread. I think my favorite snacks are from my slimfast meal plan:

the snack bars

2teaspoons of peanut butter and an apple

2 teaspoons of peanut butter and one low fat graham cracker

I am not sure how many calories they are but I tend to eat those a lot for snack but I love peanut butter.

Some of my fav snacks so far...

Grape or cherry tomatoes and a few slices of low-fat turkey lunch meat, lightly dipped in low-cal italian dressing. Or plain. But I mean...yummier with the dressing obviously.

Hardboiled eggs with yellow mustard or Red Hot hot-sauce.

20 mini pretzels with salsa. (or mustard or red hot... i loooove Red Hot!)

Special K whole wheat crackers with a 60 cal mozzarella string cheese.

Strawberries sprinkled with splenda. (So gooood!)

cantaloupe (or whatever fruit) with some low call reddi whip.

mm. hungry now. lol.

The mini corn dogs are AWESOME!!! I baked them off in the oven and the last two minutes they were cooking, I sprayed them with some cooking spray so they had that wonderful hot grease taste that makes fried food so great without all the calories of fried. I dipped mine in plain yellow musturd and could not tell they weren't real corn dogs. My only tip is to eat them hot, once they cool off a bit, they have a slightly rubbery/gumy taste.

I absolutely agree, Sparkle. I just replied to a post from a woman who works at Subway & addicted to their cookies. I had a half a footlong (6" obviously, lol) last night & don't feel guilty because I load up on the veggies & saved most of my calories for that (dinner) meal. I try not to deprive myself, either. I just ration out my portions & round my calories "up." In other words, that sub was around 380 calories, but I upped it to around 500 cuz I added Sweet Onion Sauce & can't have my sub without it...lol. SOOO, I gave myself a "cushion" & didn't go over my calories for the day.

I love your tips & your snack ideas & you're right: certain folks are thin for a reason, not by accident. Others just have good genes!

CONFESSION TIME: I haven't exercised since Saturday for girlie reasons; having terrible head/backaches, cramps, etc. I know exercise alleviates some of that but I've had a rough work & personal week to add to the pain. YELL AT ME, PLEASE! I deserve it! And tomorrow I'm going to the NYPD v. FDNY Benefit Hockey Game--all day drinking & prob hungover Sunday. Ok, let me have it. But it's for a good cause? JK, that's no excuse...

I'll be back on track next week...PROMISE! Keep up the good work, Sparkle. I'm glad SF hasn't lost my info lately so I can easily look to you for inspiration...:o)
