Think you have to stop snacking to lose weight? Think again! Swearing off snacking is a sure-fire way to set yourself up for dieting failure by leading to overeating!

Consider having a smart snack (around 100 calories) every four hours or so, such as:

  • apple, small
  • orange, medium
  • banana, small
  • fig bar, 2 cookies
  • 1 oz. pretzels
  • 1 oz. baked tortilla chips
  • 1 c. air-popped popcorn
  • ½ c. raisins
  • 4 low-fat crackers

Smart snacking will help you curb your appetite and keep your metabolism going strong!
