Snacking is the downfall of many dieters. Calories in common snacks can total an entire meal or more and can be consumed in a very short period of time leaving you feeling hungry, sluggish, and discouraged. A change to healthy eating must include healthy snacking. Below are a list of healthy snacks that have approximately 120-150 calories each. Pick two (no more than four) for a 2-week period of time. After 2 weeks, you can switch for two more. Try using these snacks for 2 weeks at a time. It makes planning and having something on hand quickly much easier.15 baby carrots + 7-8 almonds or walnuts
