  I HATE the term, 'nosh'! Who the heck came up with this? Now I'm in a bad mood and must eat to eradicate this word from my brain.

  Wow, someone actually mentioned popcorn with nutritional yeast - I thought I was alone!

  ANY frozen fruit (the great big already-frozen bags at Sam's club) - I like berries and peaches. I'm not much of a sweet tooth and I would usually rather have fruit than any candy.

  I crave the salty -- classic Lays, chips & salsa . . .

  And I can eat the heck out of some veggies & hummus!!!

  Also, if I don't need food, I just grab one slice of cheese or a pickle from the fridge (weird, I know, I wonder how I'll be when I'm preggers!).

  Meal-wise I crave chinese, sushi, and hot dogs. And I need to find some kind of BBQ chain that actually has Carolina BBQ . . .

  I like Balance yogurt peanut and honey bars, South Beach caramel bars, canteloupe, watermelon, natural pnut butter on low fat cracker..., I try to stay away from chips, I love em tho...but the baked ones, they have olestra, and Olestra may not have fat, but do you know that while it is not fattening....the compounds in it also flush out your nutrients, so watch that one. few ok, not the whole bag. Fresh squeezed lemon in water with splenda promote weight loss, lemons speed metabolism, and help burn fat...especially use cup of warm water and make a lemon tea...helps break down fat in bloodstream.

  i have an addiction to peanut butter, honey and banana sandwiches, thankfully they're not fried elvis style, but man to they do the trick to work as a meal!! but they have to be on whole wheat bread, i switched from white bread when i was a kid and can't stand it anymore!!

  as for guilty pleasure snacking, ruffles and onion dip is the most irresistible combo for me, to the point of i can't buy it unless we're entertaining and i know i won't be able to eat it all.

  Found a great snack for those of us that can't have SALT while snacking. Terra BBQ chips(NO SALT ADDED) and Food Should Taste Good's Jalepeno chips-WATCH OUT-these things are AMAZING and almost 90% less sodium than regular chips. I found them on my fav site www.heartwisefood.com Try them and let me know what you think- they also have dried APPLE HARVEST that is a great on the go snack-I keep one in my car almost always! ENJOY!!!

  i absolutely love food and snacking! i really cant help myself when it comes to cereal, especially. it doenst matter what kind. raisin bran, cocoa pebbles, cornflakes, specialk, granola, rice krispies, cookiecrisp, -ANYTHING! i just cant control myself. thats why i dont buy it too often:) i also love yogurt and frozen yogurt. pretzels are another high on the list, but not chips. i love crackers, though. fruits are great too. a nice shiny apple or some grapes.. actually any kind of fruit at all. chocolate is a no-no for me. whenever i start snacking on something chocolatey, i end up eating the whole thing. ^^;;

  Okay, already. So you are all healthy and just love carrot sticks and rice cakes. (and have a h--- of a lot more willpower than I do). Now let's talk about the REAL you. How many boxes of doughnuts, bags of chips, whole cakes and pies do you have to consume to be so disgusted with yourself to be so darn good? Now that's what I would like to know. I have been up and down the scales so many times I'm dizzy! By the way, CONGRATULATIONS to all of you who have it all pulled together. I will try again.
