WW---Snacks

[cinmell]

For those of you on Weight Watchers, when you get the munchies, what do you snack on that is low in points?

[jimmytammy]

I am trying to keep celery, carrots, crunchy veg's washed and ready to eat in the frig. It seems that the crunching helps. I also will put 24 butter pretzels in a snack bag (2 pts) and keep those to snack on throughout the day. Good Luck!

pria bars - by Powerbar - 2 pts


Snyder's 100% yellow corn reduced fat tortilla chips with lots of salsa - 12 chips - 3 pts


Edys no sugar added ice cream - 1/2 c. Butter pecan - 4 pt


Oranges or apples - 1 pt each

[DiznEeyore]

Let's see.....

I *love* Pria bars for 2 pts (esp. Chocolate Peanut Crunch and French Vanilla Crisp), plus they count as a milk serving!

Jello FF Chocolate Pudding Cups are yummy (even my dh loves 'em!) and only 2 pts.

Trader Joe's fruit leather is delicious and perfect for a sweet craving -- all natural and 2 pts

A little can of mandarin oranges -- 1 or 2 pts depending on how much you eat.

Any fruit: Apples, bananas (a med. banana w/1 Tbsp Jif peanut butter is 4 pts and very filling), oranges, grapes, melon cut into chunks, prunes

Chocolate Chocolate Chip Quaker Rice Cakes - I'm out of them but I *think* they're 1 or 1.5 pts each

Chocolate Chip Rumbly Grahams - 3 pts for 23 (I never eat 23 at once, though)

A big ol' soft Superpretzel w/mustard is 3 pts :)

[Disneyaholic]

Don't forget Skinny Cow ice cream sandwiches! Most are 2 points, a few are 3 points each.

And fat-free saltines -- 7 are just one point!


I also like the WW "just 2 points" fruit and oat bars. While they're probably NOT the tastiest thing in the world, they do fill you up and they're kind of sweet -- not JUST cardboard tasting. ;)

[WebmasterKathy]

Quaker "Quakes", sour cream and onion flavor. They're rice cake sort-of things, but taste whole lot better. I eat them when I want chips. 10 of them are 2 points.

Fudgsicle No Sugar Added bars- 1 point, and very fudgy!

Klondike Slim-A- Bear Ice Cream Sandwiches- chocolate or vanilla- 2 pts

[tiggerlover]

Veggies that are washed and ready to eat.

15 No-fat Pringles=1 pt.

Fudgsicle=1 pt.

pickles=0 pts.

granola bar=2 pts.

popcorn=pts vary

[TCKK]

WOW Barbecue flavored chips. 1 pt. per ounce

Pierre's no sugar added ice cream Peanut Butter Crunch flavor. 2 pts. per 1/2 cup

Sugar Free Jello with fat free Cool Whip pts. depend on amount

Skinny Cow Ice Cream Sandwiches 2 pts.

Quaker low fat chocolate chunk Granola Bars 2 pts.

[ohMom]

Dole Fruit-n-gel single serve bowls - reduced sugar kiwi-berry jello with pears - 1 pt per bowl

I even had a bowl of salsa one day - no chips - just salsa:teeth:

Schwans healthy creation cream popsicle are verryy good too. Guess I'll have to buy some and figure out how many pts!

[geetey]

When I am having a chocolate attack...
4 mini Tootsie Rolls - 1 pt

I love those Skinny Cows! Vanilla is my favorite so far, over chocolate and mint. I have heard that the Klondike sandwiches are as good, but less expensive. Is that true? I really like saying I am having a SKIIIIIIIIIIIIIINNY Cow though. ;)

Fruit - 1 cup of strawberries, pear, apple, orange. 1 pt each. I *love* fruit!

Popcorn Cakes. 1 for 1 pt. Just salty and crunchy enough for me.

FYI....They are the long slender popsicles not the big fruit bars. I don't know how many points the fruit bars are but they are probably not too bad.

[TCKK]

Pretzel Sticks are good if you're craving crunchy and salty. 3 for 2 pts.

Chocolate Tootsie roll suckers for 1pt.

[anniet]

Laughing Cow creamy swiss wedge-1pt with 5 Snackwells wheat crackers-1pt.

Chewy granola bars- 2 pts.

5 archway ginger snaps- 3pts.

And my new chocolate fix is coming from Calcium Chews- 2 of them for 1 pt AND I'm getting all of my calcium for the day!!!!

Terry:

I've tried the Slim-a-Bears and don't think they're nearly as good as Skinny Cows -- YMMV, of course! ;) BTW, did you know if you sign up at the Skinny Cow website they occasionally send out a newsletter and some coupons? :)

Also, for anyone who cares, I realized I listed the Trader Joe's fruit leather for 2 pts -- they're actually only 1. :teeth:

[campingcorgi]

Our school cafeteria has the new reduced fat Cheeto's and they are great! Only 3 points for a small bag!!

[geetey]

Thanks for the FYI, Becka. I was thinking of the fruit bars. I will have to look for the fruit popsicles. I haven't noticed those before.

Annie - which kind of calcium chew are you taking? I have seen TV ads for a chocolate one that looks yummy! I would take those over my tablets!

I will have to go to the Skinny Cow website and sign up! Thanks for the tip, Amy! I love those Skinny Cows!

On the topic of snacks... anyone know how much a single Rolo costs in points? There are some in the other room that are beyond calling my name. They are SCREAMING for me! LOL! I can't find any nutritional information on Rolos and I have some extra points today!

[becka]

OK I lied - It is not the Dole brand that I have. I looked in my freezer and they are actually Edy's brand fruit bars. They are just as good IMHO and at just 1 pt. you can't beat 'em. :)

The internet ROCKS!!

3 Rolos are 90 calories, 2.5 g fat.

I don't have my slider-thingy handy, but that looks like 2 points for 3 pieces!

[Nancy]

The last few days I have been eating marshmellow peeps. The WW leader made a big mistake telling us that 5 peeps were only 1 point!!! Well, I love those things and thought I wouldn't be able to have them so I am a very happy WW person right now!!!

[PRINCESS VIJA]

I just found a ranch dressing mix that is called Fiesta dip. It is spicy, and I love it with my veggies. Mix it up with whatever you use for dipping. Spicy tends to make me feel full. And it tastes good with peppers, I usually don't eat those, but now with this dip I add in more veggies.

[Nikole]

Rice Krispie treats (you know the ones you buy pre-packaged....) 2 points............. (even the chocolate ones) shhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh ;)

[house_of_princesses]

How about the WW bars for 2 pts! That double chocolate fudgey flavor is takes so long to chew, they're great! Sorry, can't remember the official flavor name, but it's chocolate outside and in on the pic on the box. Not as good as a Krave bar, 4 pts. and also twice the size.

[ohMom]

oh no! i shouldn't have read that!! we have those!!!

[Liz]

On the salsa, just beware because our leader told us although its zero points if you eat more than one serving you have to start counting the points because it does have calories.

I liked to pan fry (no butter or anything) two pieces of ham lunch meat with a slice of 1 pt. 2% cheese in between the ham. The cheese kind of melts and the ham is warm. Its 3 pts. and really yummy and filling.

[ead79]

Goldfish crackers are 3 points for 55 crackers

WW 2 point bars

Skinny Cows (the strawberry shortcake ones are my favorite)--2 points

Smart Pop Kettlecorn--4 points for the whole bag :)

Baked Doritos--2 points per serving

[SnackyStacky]

Snyder's Sourdough Special Pretzels - 6 pretzels for 2 points

Baked Cheddar Cheese and sour cream Ruffles - 2 points for 1 oz

Wow Tostitos with salsa - 1 oz of chips for 2 points

15 ff pringles - 1 point

baked cool ranch doritos 1 oz for 2 points

Skinny Natural corn chips - 2 or 3 points for TWO CUPS (depending on flavor)

1/2 cup of Edy's Grand Light Tagalong ice cream - 3 points

I like the texture of the wafers on the Slim-a-bears for 2 points

5 Goya Maria cookies for 2 points (I'm so glad I tried these....they were only 69 cents for one roll!!! SO cheap!!!!! and they taste like animal crackers)

Morningstar farms mini corn dogs for 1 point per corn dog

1 oz of cabot 75% light cheese, with 16 slices of Hormel turkey pepperoni, and 5 fat free saltines for 4 points

I love to buy the Kellogg's variety pack with the 10 boxes. It comes with individual servings of Rice Krispies, Frosted Flakes, Raisin Bran, Cornflakes, Crispix, cinnamon crispix, froot loops, corn pops, special K and frost mini-wheats. All of them have 2 points per box, except for the corn flakes and Special K which have 1 point for the box. I'll either snack on those plain, or stir them into a container of Light 'n fit yogurt for a 3 or 4 point snack.

The 94% fat free popcorn for 3 points a bag

Barbara's Old Fashinoed Oatmeal crisp cookies for 1 point per cookie

A can of Campbell's Select Tomato Garden soup for 2 points for the WHOLE can!!!

I LOVE the 2 point bars. The chocolate mint are my favorites.

There's more, but I can't think of them off the top of my head.

[cinmell]

Here's 2 I forgot about: Snackwell Bite Sized Chocolate Chip Cookies, 13=3points and Tropicana Frozen Fruit Bars=2 points. Yummy!

[ohMom]

bump! found this looking for something else - thought our new WISHer WWers might like it and maybe i'll remember to actually write this down!

[yasuern]

Jollytime Healthy Pop butter microwave popcorn - 5 cups = 1pt

Quakers Quakes corn rings nacho cheese 25 rings 3pts

Skinny cow icecream sandwich chocolate peanutbutter cup flavor
1 = 3pts

Klondike slim- a - bar 2pts each

Philly swirl sorbet stix (like creamcicles in many flavors) 1pt each

and my indulgance

Graham cracker pudding - 4pts each as follows

1 whole lowfat Honey Maid graham cracker split into 2 squares
1 FF chocolate pudding cup
4 Tbls FF Cool Whip

Take 1 graham cracker and put it in a bowl cover with 1/2 the pudding then 1/2 the Cool Whip then repeat - cover put in fridge (it taste alot better if it sits and the Graham cracker gets soft - at least 2hours) then ENJOY its sinful tasting!:D

[DiznEeyore]

I found a new snack that I really like. I *love* baked chips, but do not like consuming the trans-fats from the hydrogenated oils. My mom introduced me to Terra Chips, which are made from root vegetables and are delicious!! They have the crunch that I crave and they *don't* have hydrogenated oils! 3 points for 10 large chips. :)

[Bichon Barb]

Microwave popcorn (low fat forgot brand) with two tsps melted Bummel & Brown spread - 3 pts.

15 Garcia's tortilla chips - 2 pts.

Strawberries with nonfat whipped topping - 2 pts.

This thread is funny to read, because you can tell who has the sweet tooth and who has the salty tooth. He-he.

[BabyTigger99]

WW Smart Ones Giant Sundae Cones - 2 points

FF pudding cups (choco/vanilla swirl) - 2

3 Viactive - 1 point, and 1500 mg of calcium!! Who knew chocolate could be so good!

[Zoo Keeper]

I love those Miss Merguine Cookies. If you get the smaller ones, it's like 8 for 2 points.

Skinny Stix are good two.

You can also mix a can of crushed pineapple with FF Cool Whip and refrigerate. It becomes thick and is 2 pts/cup. One tip, you might want to drain some of the pineapple juice out or it won't thicken.

[anniet]

Just tried the new Cheese Flavored Triscuits- 2 points for 6 of them and they are YUMMMY!!! Cheese lovers enjoy!!!!!!!

[ohMom]

[d.kurz]

1 graham cracker square with a marshmallow microwave-melted on top = 1 point!!!


and


2 slices diet wheat, 1 tbl Peanut butter, 1 tbl jelly = 4 comforting points!
