I often work late hours. So I have found that the later I get home from work the more of a chance there is that make poor food choices such as just grabbing fast food :( But on the days I start my meals in the crock pot as I get ready for work I don't have to worry about working late or eating poorly!!! I LOVE my crock pot. Today's dinner is already in the crock pot for the day-chicken taco's. I need to keep finding new recipes for the crock pot so I don't get bored. Funny how I can get bored when eating healthy but I never seemed to have gotten bored back when I ate fast food burgers and pizza night after night for years :( Ugh

I do enjoy jerky for a quick snack too. But some times the high sodium makes me hold water and stalls my weight loss :(
My worst snacking time comes in the car on road trips. For that I usually stick to jerkey. Protein, low carb, pretty decent on calories, and if I eat too much my jaw gets so sore I can't really chew for a while.

Grapes, hummus with celery or baked spicy pork skins.
Good luck

Thank you for these sites! I didn't know about a couple of them so I will have to try them out. I also like "emily bites".
