I read the first post and no other posts, so I didn't look at other people's replys. But here's what I do.
Yogurt - just about the only thing I snack on when i can't make it to a meal. It beats eating popcorn, chips, or crackers or things like that.
Burger patties - I eat alot of healthy burgers without mayonays cuz, well, I'm a guy. I like muscle. A couple of my friends bulked up to play offensive line by eating 6 burgers a day so burgers are good, as long as you are doing some cardio a couple times a week too.
G2 - is the other kind of gatorade. Regular gatorade is healthy and has lots of energy, don't get me wrong, but if you stay inactive, the 130 calories and sugar isn't good. I personally am active and work out every day, some times twice a day. But for busy people who can't or just don't want to, G2 is better because it has less than half the sugar and calories, but IMO tastes as good or better as gatorade.
Chicken Alfredo pasta - this is a great lunch or dinner, pasta is very healthy with little junk in it. It takes about 15 minutes to make, 10 to cool. I could live off this pasta. If you get it just the right dryness, it's amazing. Don't be stupid and put too much water or milk in it though, then it isn't very tasty and you will get sick of it.
Eggs - I love making hard boiled eggs as another snack option. It's a nice spell to the cold yogurt, sometimes you just need something hot and quick. It has all kinds of protein in it. It is healthy as long as you don't screw it up by putting a bunch of salt on it. Keep the salt to a minimum, and this is a healthy snack.
Eating habbits - watch the junk you put in your house. I'd recommend stop buying coke or pepsi products altogether. I was addicted and somehow quit, so you can too. Get some bottled water if it helps you get off the coke. If Coke is too meaningful to you to give up, just cut back. Slowly and surely you won't need it anymore.
Also, don't eat right before you go to bed. When you have undigested food in your system, you system doesn't do anything with the calories. You are no longer up and walking around to burn any of the calories. The people who eat ice cream right before hitting the sack are the people who have the most trouble. I have the most trouble because I can't sleep when hungry. So what I do is drink as much water until I can't force any more down. You system then believes its full and stops telling you it's hungry.
