After being on Weight Watchers for almost five years now, I have a few go-to snacks that I love to have in the house to help me make sure I succeed. Because let's be real... sometimes, you need something other than roasted broccoli or fresh fruit. Here are some of my absolute favorites that I can't go without, many of which that you can order on Amazon!

Pizzelles

Pizzelles are an absolute favorite of mine! Pizzelle cookies are basically like a waffle cone but in a cookie format. It's a delicious Italian treat that I love to top with fat free whipped cream for a nice dessert. It fills my sweet tooth without hurting my Smart Points budget. Two cookies is usually only around 50 calories, and if you have four of them it's only 3 SmartPoints on myWW.

Where to get them: Most grocery stores sell these, but you can also get them on Amazon Prime from Reko. They come in two flavors: chocolate or vanilla. 

Trail Mix

I know trail mix can be a bit of a controversial option for some since it's a bit higher in SmartPoints values. However, I absolutely adore the 365 Everyday Value brand (from Whole Foods, especially the Raspberry Beret flavor (and not just because it's a fantastic Prince reference). It's 150 calories for 1/4 cup and even though it's 5 SmartPoints on myWW, it's a super filling snack. Besides, 5 SmartPoints isn't a huge chunk of your budget if you're following the Green plan. 

Where to get it:
This brand specifically is at Whole Foods, which you can shop online via Amazon Prime. Get a 2-week free trial when you click here, or just get the trail mix here.

Seaweed snacks

Nori (aka seaweed) snacks are some of my absolute favorite. The umami flavor is great, a lot of them are seasoned nicely, and they're super low in calories and SmartPoints. You can have an entire container of Annie Chun's for only 50 calories and 1 SmartPoint on myWW. 

​Where to get it: The international foods section of your grocery store should have these, but if you don't see it there, get a 12 pack on Amazon and your pantry should be stocked for a while!

Tuna and Chicken packets

These ready to eat packets can sometimes vary in SmartPoints depending on the flavor, but are usually only 70-110 calories and pack a ton of protein. They're a great snack for on the go and also for building a quick meal if you don't feel like cooking and just want to dump it on some low calorie bread or wraps. 

Where to get them: You can find these in the canned meats section of grocery stores (with canned tuna and chicken), or you can order a variety pack from Starkist on Amazon.

Goldfish crackers

I love Goldfish because you can get so many crackers for only 140 calories and 4 SmartPoints on myWW! They're great for snacking on when you want to feel like you get a good deal of volume from a real cracker. 

Where to get them: The cracker aisle at your local grocery store, or you can order them on Amazon. Try a 60 ounce box for sharing at home or a box of prepackaged snack packs for when you're on the go and don't have access to a digital food scale.

Good Thins

Good Thins are another fantastic option for those of you who are craving crackers or chips but want to have a high volume for a low amount of SmartPoints. Depending on the variety, you can get a serving for 3-4 SmartPoints and they usually pack a great deal of flavor. 

Where to get them: These are available at most grocery stores, and you can also try them when you order a variety pack on Amazon.

Protein Bars

Protein bars are one of my absolute must have snacks for on-the-go. They're a lifesaver when you're out at about and need a quick boost of protein to fill you up (but also have a sweets craving) until your next meal, but also want to know exactly how many calories you're consuming and not worry about it.
Four protein bar brands you can try that I enjoy, in order of SmartPoints values: 
  • Built Bar (SmartPoints typically range from 3-5 per bar)
    • Where to get them: On Built Bar's website. Get 10% off with coupon MagicallyFit
  • Quest (SmartPoints typically range from 4-5 per bar)
    • Where to get them: Most grocery stores sell them, or you can get a pack on Amazon
  • Pure Protein (SmartPoints typically range from 5-6 per bar)
    • Where to get them: Most grocery stores sell them, or you can get a pack on Amazon
  • ONE (SmartPoints typically range from 6-7 per bar)
    • Where to get them: Most grocery stores sell them, or you can get a pack on Amazon

​Popcorn

Popcorn is a snack you can have a ton of for a very low amount of calories and SmartPoints. This is great for measuring out a few cups and pouring it into a huge bowl and munching on when you're having a Netflix binge watching session. I personally really like the Angie's BoomChickaPop kind. If you want to level up your popcorn but skip the butter, add some popcorn seasoning to it to help add some flavor but keep the calories low! 

Where to get it: Most grocery stores, or on Amazon

Babybel Cheese

Mini Babybel Light is only 50 calories and 1 SmartPoint per mini wheel and is a great way to get some fats in (if you're like me, you tend to not eat a lot of foods that are high in fat because so many "healthier" things try to cut back on them). 

Where to get them: Most grocery stores, or you can order a pack on Amazon

Greek Yogurt

Greek yogurt has been a staple of mine since I started losing weight. Specifically, my favorite is the 80 calorie (2 SmartPoints) Dannon Light & Fit Greek variety. But if you're on myWW Purple or Blue, plain nonfat Greek yogurt is Zero SmartPoints! Add a Zero SP flavoring like Jordan's Skinny Syrups to it for a great 0 SP snack.

Want to make your own yogurt? If you havean InstantPot, check if it has a yogurt setting and then get some ideas from the Instant Pot Yogurt Recipes cookbook!
