More WW Talk: Core snacks, ideas needed

I joined WW last week, and am giving the core plan a shot...does anyone have any good ideas for core snacks?

Trying not to use any of the 35 pts for snacks as I seem to use them for meals (carb supplements).

Thanks!

I did core a few times and the main snacks I had were the SF/FF pudding, SF Jello, 94% FF Popcorn and lots of fruit or unsweetened applesauce. Good luck!

Those are all really good suggestions. Snacks on core can be tough. I also find buying low point snack food helps. I also try to keep snacks that are only 1 or two pointsin the house. I like ww 1 point cakes, Mrs. Freshly's snacks, fudgsicles and skinny cow ice cream bars.

I agree. I switched to Core three weeks ago...
I try to have a lot of 1-2 point snacks on hand.
That way I can have something sweet and only use 1-2 points.

Re: More WW Talk: Core snacks, ideas needed

I agree with all of the above. Those are great snack ideas and won't take too much out of your weekly point allowance.

My main snack was 94% ff popcorn and I love putting my 2 tsps of EVOO on top to get in my oil.

However, I should say that I mainly tried to snack on fruit. That was the whole point of me switching to core - I wanted to eat healthier and stop eating those low pt snacks.

Other ideas:
-Fruit smoothie (made in the blender with fresh fruit and skim or soy milk)
-Homemade hummus
-Baby carrots with 2 tbsp of Marie's light bleu cheese dressing (PHENOMENAL and only 1 pt for that serving)

How is your week going?
