Don't let your stomach eat itself.

Don't you just hate when you're somewhere away from your house and you are hungry but 1. you don't want to spend 7 bucks on food and 2. you may not have time to go get food?

Well then you NEED TO PUT SNACKS IN YOUR BAG/BACKPACK/CAR/ETC.

It helps keep your metabolism going and it keeps your stomach from getting hunger pains....which are the worst.

P.S. studies show that people that eat healthy snacks during the day don't binge at night.
(Ok, I don't even know if a study for that exists but I promise you snacking during the day helps keep your appetite down so that you don't want to eat everything at night!)

My favorite snacks that are healthy and great to keep around:

  • craisins
  • cashews (I like mixing the cashews & craisins and eating them together. It makes a great salty/sweet snack)
  • Au'some fruit nuggets (amazon or at most Walmarts)
  • Triscuits
  • Dark chocolate pomegranate (amazon or costco)
  • Special K fruit crisps
  • Fruit snack (try to pick one that is made from more fruit than others)
  • Grapes
  • Baby tomatoes
  • Apple Slices
  • Carrots
  • Dehydrated Pinapple slices (homemade - not dehydrated all the way to where they are chewy. Yummm)
