There are some days where my stomach feels like a bottomless pit.

I have days where it feels like my hunger rages All.
Long-no matter what I eat.
I have a feeling some of you out there can relate…like tell me I’m not alone.
Popcorn
Popcorn totally satisfies a craving for a salty, crunchy snack.
I love EatingWell’sLemon-Parm Popcorn, which is packed with flavor and delivers just 99 calories in 112 cups.
As a bonus, popcorn counts as a whole grain.
Most of us don’t eat enough whole grains, which deliver more fiber than refined grains.

Celery
I love celery.
I often eat it a lot for a snack slathered with peanut butter.
And I especially love it as a low-calorie standby when I’m feeling ravenous.
Eating fiber-rich foods helps you feel full.
Go for the classic celery with peanut butter, or use it to scoop up yummy dips!
Other crunchy raw vegetables, like bell peppers and cucumbers, are great options for a snack.
Carrot sticks are slightly sweet and can quell a desire for something crunchy.
