Some Healthy Snack Alternatives...

Snack Time!

½ c low fat cottage cheese with berries/peach

Celery with natural peanut butter

25-30 almonds and apple/berries

½ avocado with tomato and/or onion on wasa crackers/ 1 piece gluten-free bread

5 wasa crackers/1 piece gluten-free bread with natural peanut butter

¼ c Fage yogurt with berries

½ c oatmeal with berries/ ½ banana and ¼ c flavored granola (good for breakfast too)

½ c cereal with fat free/soy milk and fruit

Advocare snack bar or meal replacement shake

1 packet tuna in water with 1 tbsp mayo mixed, eat with veggies (celery, carrots, pepper, cucumber)


Remember:
* snacks should include a fiber/protein with a fruit/vegetable

* think of a “fist full” as 200 calories

* eat (healthy) every 2.5-3 hours, at a recommended 200-500 calories/sitting

* drink 4-5 bottles of water/day
