9 Healthy Snacks to Lose Weight

In one study, eating an apple before a meal was found to save 187 calories when compared to meals that did not include an apple.

1. Apple With Nut Butter

Each prune contains 25 calories and is high in fiber. As a satisfying snack, I normally consume 4 to 6 prunes (100 to 150 calories and 4 to 6 grams fiber), often with some nuts for extra protein.

2. Prunes

According to research, high-quality dairy protein can help you stay satiated. Plain Greek yogurt and cottage cheese are two of the greatest high-protein, low-calorie alternatives with little or no added sugars.

3. Cottage Cheese With Berries

KIND Minis are one of my favorite mid-meal snacks. They're half the size of a regular KIND Bar and contain between 80 and 100 calories per bar, depending on the flavor.

4. KIND Minis

Because of the oat beta-glucan fiber and protein content, oatmeal is not only a terrific way to start the day, but it is also a nutrient-rich enjoyable snack.

5. Oatmeal

The pretzels complement the chickpea and tahini-based dip perfectly. Hummus is high in nutrients, including protein, fiber, iron, and B vitamins. 

6. Hummus and Pretzels

Pistachios are high in fiber and complete protein, two elements that help you feel full.

7. Pistachios

I frequently munch on two whole-grain Swedish crispbreads topped with nut butter and sliced banana or piled with sliced avocado, tomato, and fresh mozzarella for a lower-calorie alternative to my favorite whole-grain toast.

8. Crispbreads With Toppings

I usually equate popcorn with moviegoing and butter and salt, so I forget how healthy it is. However, homemade or ready-to-eat popcorn can be a filling snack with low calories.
