Mindless snacking

[Kathy]

Are you guilty of mindless snacking?

You know, the kind of snacking that you don't notice what it tastes like, how much you ate, or how full you are.....

My favorite: Popcorn. Lowfat, Orville Reddenbacher. Love it but can eat and eat and eat without thinking about it.

My second favorite: Pretzels.

Yes, the pattern seems to be salty carbs although I'd rather have these instead of chips...but I like chips too. I just don't tend to keep them in the house and I can usually justify having popcorn bags on hand.

Oh...and I love crackers. Another salty carb.

So I'm supposed to be Weight watch pointing and have found that although I am losing weight (2 pounds this week) I don't do well with counting my points....But that is another thread. :rofl:

And you? Are you a mindless snacker?

I like salty snacks too! Potato chips is my downfall. I can eat the whole bag before I know it. I'm glad I found those 100 cal. packs. 2 points per bag and I'm pretty satisfied. But, I gotta not go get the other 4 bags out of the box! lol

I am a night snacker and premenstrual snacker. Since my hysterectomy on 1-31 my night snacking has gone away.

I am hoping that the night snacking and premenstrual snacking will stop. If so weight loss may be in the future, time will tell.

Yes, I'm also a nighttime mindless snacker. I like to alternate sweet and salty snacks, so that's twice as bad. I just ate three girl scout cookies which is pretty good for me. I would like to eat them until they are gone. I'm WWing, too. Some days are good and some are bad.... I wish I could get a better grip on my snacking.

I haven't snacked all day but since I read this thread, I am wanting to go cruise my pantry. I just bought pretzels yesterday! Aquachick

I love to read and snack. I have to really watch it or I find that I've eaten an entire bag of potato chips. :eek: I like the salty snacks too - popcorn, crackers etc. However, I can also eat a whole box of Girl Scout cookies if I don't watch it :rolleyes:

It's agood thing that I love to :dance:

:I love "Chex Mix" for snacks.....which is a combination of pretzels, corn checks, wheat checks, rye chips, and bread twists....very satisfying!
