There was a recent discussion about Cottage Cheese. It makes an excellent snack ( also a good meal for breakfast or lunch) it only has 5gms of carbs/ 1/2 cup. It also has protein about 8 gms. You can even eat it with those veggies.

Sportster,
You know dietitians are used to saying one needs to eat snacks because long ago Regular insulin was used and it lasted a long time. With Humalog we don't need to eat snacks.
That being said, when I eat snacks, it's pecan halves, cottage cheese, ultra thin ham slices.

You gotta' burn calories to lose weight. Of course eating smart, eating less and fewer carbs helps, but clearly more exercise will help a lot. You can easily exercise enough that you NEED more carbs - what a sweet proposition!

Thanks for the link Marie! BTW....how do you search for previous discussions on TuDiabetes? I hate to keep repeating questions that have already been asked.

I eat carrots all the time for snacks. They are low in calories, but can be addicting to eat. Also, onions, peppers, celery, and cucumbers are good too.

pistachios, other nuts, cheese, beef jerky (seems popular!), veggies and dip, berries (lower carb fruit) and lots and lots of water :)

Slim Jims, Vienna Sausage and when I have a low BG it is ALL ABOUT Reese Cups (11 carbs for the snack size) or a pack of nabs, around 23 carbs.
