Apparently my blood pressure cuf/device has died a strange death. It reads Uber high.
I've been sweating my regular visit to my dr. thinking my pressure had elevated to the point of additional meds and diet restrictions. Etc. Etc.
What a relief! Lol. Fergin' awesome!! Currently celebrating with a Southern omelet.

I have determined that I could lose more weight if I went to bed earlier. I'm finding if I stay up late, the urge to snack is overwhelming. Maybe I should invest in those styrofoam disks people used to eat. "Rice cakes", I think they're called.

We have become lazy bakers lately and have been using the bread machine for our sustenance. I know that the artisan sourdough bread has more soul, but one must make compromises.

I suggest you buy a big bag of "baby cut" carrots and make them your "go-to" snack. They are cheap, nutritious, low-calorie, and good to munch on.

Agree almonds are a fantastic snack. They are very good for you, but they are also fairly dense calorically so if someone is too fat for this sport I think carrots make more sense.

This is why I say a small amount and I'm drawing a distinction between hunger and cravings. IIRC, it's something like 14 almonds is a half serving and 80-90 calories (I like the Blue Diamond Bold Almonds, either a spicy variety or the sea salt & vinegar). The problem with an unsatisfying snacks (like carrots, for me), is that they do nothing for the underlying cravings and there's a good chance that the snacking will continue until the scratch is finally itched, and often results in higher calorie consumption.

Another is green beans with a serving of garlic hummus - 90 cals total
last is almond milk and casein protein - 160 cals

I also like what I call Lazy Man's Deviled Eggs - hard boiled egg cut in half, with a little squirt of light (!!) mayo and dab hot sauce on each half. Prolly ~100 cal.

Yeah, that's the problem with nuts as a snack - they're more caloric than they are filling. I need the opposite.
