Are you watching what you eat? After giving birth to my daughter, I ate in a calorie deficit to lose the baby weight. Something I really had to keep an eye on was my snacking. I had to come up with some easy 100-calorie snacks for weight loss to help me reach my goals while remaining full and satisfied throughout the day.
Here are 12 easy snacks that come in around 100 calories each. These are all snacks that I personally enjoy and that I ate during my weight loss journey.
These are snacks that were actually satiating, that helped me stay full between meals. I hope you’ll get some new ideas for things you can snack on!
I love popcorn as a filling, low calorie snack. I pick up the 100 calorie packs at the grocery store. You get to eat a very satisfying amount of popcorn for 100 calories.
If you want a more flavorful treat similar to chips, I really enjoy Popchips. My favorite flavor is barbecue, and they are available in 100 calorie bags.
Pickles are a low calorie snack, and adding a slice of turkey and half a slice of deli cheese creates a very satisfying low calorie snack. I like to get the pickle spears so that I can wrap the turkey and cheese around the pickle.
I’m not a big fruit person, but I love apples. For under 100 calories, you can have a large apple. They are crunchy, satisfying, and filling.
A hard boiled egg is a protein packed snack that comes in under 100 calories. Add some salt to bring out the flavor!
For a super filling and substantial snack, try an egg white omelette packed with your favorite veggies. I like broccoli, but you could do onion and pepper, or even spinach. One egg white is 17 calories, so you can probably have two or three depending on the calorie count of your chosen veggie.
I love Babybel cheese! They are delicious, and they come wrapped in wax, which is so satisfying to peel off. A regular cheese is 70 calories, but the light version is only 50 – which means you can enjoy two.
I love going to Kiwi for frozen yogurt. My favorite vegan chocolate flavor is just 25 calories an ounce. Four ounces is a nice serving size, and comes in at just 100 calories.
Steamed edamame with sea salt sprinkled over is delicious and fun to snack on. You can have half a cup of shelled edamame for under 100 calories.
For about 100 calories, you can enjoy half an English muffin with 1/4 tablespoon of butter. Devour this treat toasted or regular.
Enjoy 12 baby carrots and a tablespoon of your favorite hummus for 100 calories.
For 100 calories, you can have approximately 7 tortilla chips with half a cup of pico de gallo.
