Grabbing a 100-calorie snack pack of cookies or pretzels may
seem virtuous, but it's more likely to make you hungrier than if you ate
something more substantial, says Amy Goodson, RD, dietitian for Texas Health
Ben Hogan Sports Medicine. "Eating small amounts of carbohydrates does
nothing but spike your blood sugar and leave you wanting more carbs."
Goodson recommends choosing a protein such as peanut butter or string cheese
with an apple. "They are higher in calories per serving, but the protein
and fat helps you get full faster and stay full longer—and you end up eating
fewer calories overall," she says.
