19 Satisfying 100 Calorie (or Less) Snack Options

Sometimes calories do matter. When you are spreading a whole tablespoon of peanut butter on every single one of your apple slices, the calories can really add up quick. And you wouldn't want to let something like failing to measure out a true tablespoon keep you from losing weight, right?

19 Satisfying 100 Calorie (or Less) Snack Options

In order to keep these snacks under 100 calories, it's vital that you dig out your measuring spoons - you know the ones that you usually only use when you are baking a cake - dust them off, and measure to see what 2 tablespoons of hummus really looks like - instead of just dipping casually into the container.

On the other side of the coin, don't get too rigid with counting calories, or else you might drive yourself crazy. Instead, try counting the colors on your plate, or the friends that you get to see each month. Counting positive things will help you enjoy measuring a little bit more. Keeping careful tabs on how much of a food you eat is a little bit easier with these delicious snacks that are all under 100 calories.
