6. Indulge in a small handful of nuts or pumpkin seeds.

7. Toast a piece of low-carb bread and top it with unsweetened peanut butter.

Other snack ideas include:

Make a batch of decaf iced tea. Add the sugar substitute Splenda and lemon juice. Freeze in plastic Popsicle mold for a cool snack.

Put fresh berries in the freezer for a refreshing treat. Serve with cream.

I also like to eat the low carb, snack bars. Problem is some are just yucky! Here are the ones I enjoy.

Click on "health & wellness"
Then "healthywize"
Then on the left "order products"
Then "all products" scroll down to find the bars

I emailed them, and they put me on a preferred customer status in order to receive them at a discount.

Best of luck in your weight loss endeavors!
