Snack the Right Way

People always are afraid to snack during the day, but the truth is - YOU WANT to snack to keep your metabolism going - BUT it is easy to snack on the not so good things like chips, candy, buttery popcorn, or crackers. But those are not the best choices because they are empty calories that won't keep you full.

So here is a great little chart to help with picking better snacks. I LOVE apples and peanut butter (or almond butter is a healthy choice). Carrots and hummus are another great choice. I even find myself munching on sweet cherry tomatoes sometimes!

Remember skipping meals does not help you lose weight or get healthy - it slows down your metabolism and causes your body to store more fat to have an energy reserve.

So start snacking!!
