Need Suggestions
Hello Everyone!
Things have been going great with me. As of today I am 196.6. So happy to be maintaining my onderland status. I am getting so close to my goal, I can't believe it. I am hoping to reach by goal by my birthday. It is like 11 pounds but I never know when and if I might plateau so I am making a realistic goal. I am writing because even though I have been losing, I am starting to pick up a bad habit.s For the past 4 days, I find myself craving something salty at night. So I have been eating bag of chips as snack at night while watching tv. At the end of the day, I am still within my calories and carbs for the day. I am just a little nervous because I feel like I am starting to develop a bad eating pattern. So do you have any suggestions on what I could replace chips with? Suggestions on how to get over this salty phase? Any feedback will be greatly appreciated.
Have a great day!

I'm not yet on solids, but I know that pork rinds are low carb. I've been dreaming of the day when I can have a few pork rinds dipped in greek yogurt for a snack. Look for low carb alternatives, instead of chips (cheese crisps, crispy turkey pepperoni chips, etc). I think the high protein will serve you better.
I found that herbal tea in the evenings helps curb my cravings. Otherwise, I tend to be a night snacker. Which is a bad habit that I want to avoid.
Good luck!

I like turkey pepperoni chips. Just buy a bag of Hormel sliced turkey pepperoni. Lay them out on a cookie sheet, bake them till crispy and bag 'em up. Great salty snack with lots of flavor and not too high in fat. They are great with Laughing Cow cheese. I'm also a beef jerky fan. Lots of protein, not a high in calorie and satisfies that salty craving, plus you get to chew, chew, chew and chew some more...

You must permanently change your lifestyle if you want your weight loss to be permanent. You can do it!

Not sure if you can eat raw veggies, but I slice cucumbers and put salt on them and eat them just like that.....YUM!
Thank you everyone for your replies. I really appreciate your suggestions. I am going to try the tea tonight since I do not have any of the other items in my house tonight. I will try to get some other foods soon.
