Could everyone write a food snack they would recomment others to eat when they are hungry. Im sure like myself everyone sometimes wonders, "im hungry, what to eat? What snacks are healthy?" And when your thinking, you dont know what to eat!!!!! Someone post at least 1 snack each please to help people who suffer and have this problem

It all helps to clear skin!

So come on . . . .

Let me start, Carrots?

nuts/seeds --> inflammation/oil
grains --> inflammation
veggies --> no actual worthwhile calories unless legumes
meat/fish --> who the hell snacks on meat/fish ?

Is Granola Bars good?

[LiliVG]

fruit mostly. But my diet is mostly just fruit and meat, and like someone said, meat doesn't make for a good snack, so yeah, mostly fruits. lol

If it's this stuff

GRANOLA

A protein-rich cereal mixture composed of oats, wheat, wheat germ, sesame seeds, honey, brewers yeast and other ingredients.

Honey can set some people off, and i imagine this is high in carbs? Do they all have brewers yeast in them?? And of course it's grains, so you'll get the no grain mob after you with burning torches

I imagine you'd have to try it to see if your sensitive to it, there isn't really any other way!

I think most of the bodybuilders have this right, and don't do snacks. 6 small meals 3 hours apart. Of course it's impossible to do in the real world, so they have meal replacement drinks and bars but they should only use them when they can't get to have a proper meal. I've swapped to 4 meals a day, and no snacks and i'm doing ok. Occasionally I cheat, but most of the time i can stick too it - i don't punish myself or feel bad if i cheat with a snack, cos that would probably stress me and make my acne worse!

Well all together I pretty much snack on anything healthy in my fridge, but the ones I listed are my top faves.

[Kaila2]

This is prob bad but i love to snack on those cheese and peanut butter crackers
I know its my guilty pleasure haha

[wotnot]

i dunno if all these are much good for you or not, but I snack on things like:
cucumber
fruit - particularly bananas
sometimes dried fruit
yoghurt
Crackers
brazil nuts
pumpkin seeds
pieces of cooked meat (ham and chicken,etc)
Rice cakes
Also, I gotta admit I have a bit of a problem with eating biscuits. I do avoid the chocolatey ones though.
Oh, and I am gonna try slicing sweet potato and baking that. That's meant to be a nice healthy snack.

[Singhster45]

Great tips people, keep them coming . . . . im sure there are hundreds of people who are wondering what to snack on too, when they are feeling hungry, and dont want to break out . . . .

-Grapes, preferably the red ones with the seeds. Because grape seeds are good for you.
-All kinds of fruit.
-Carrots.
-Roma tomato halved or sliced and microwaved 30 seconds or so, and topped with a little blue cheese or parmesan.
-Yogurt and pureed fruit smoothies.
-OR if you don't want yogurt, then put whole fruit and ice in a blender. This makes a drink hispanics call batidos or liquados. Banana and ice is the most common. No sugar.

-Half a dixie cup of raw nuts and pumpkin seeds, primarily almonds and walnuts with about 15 ghiradelli bittersweet chocolate chips. They are very low sugar.

But always watch out for what you might be sensitive to.

[cjb]

carrots, cucumber, raddishes, zucchini, celery dipped in hummus
avocadoes
nuts, seeds mixed with raisins and dried coconut (w/o sugar)
fruit, applesauce (w/ no added sugar)



BTW, almost ALL granola bars contain sugar (even if they're called "honey" something). Read the label. Also, they all contain highly-processed grains. I wouldn't eat them, but that's just me.

[acne_battle]

ice cream and cake

[Self Conscious]

ice cream and cake

I wish I could be this cool

Saute sliced apples briefly in a little butter and a lot of cinnamon. If you like cinnamon is much as I do, this can make up for the lack of cake.

You should always have apples on hand and eat one a day. They store very well.

[Singhster45]

I love Granola bars, are you being serious when you say they arent good for you?

I ate carrots today

[j-boy]

"baked" chips and my homemade salsa..

[Mandy Ann]

My snacks consist of-

Apples
Wheat Thins
Unsalted/unbuttered popcorn
ICECREAM (I refuse to ever give that up)
