As a Type II Diabetic - I’ve to stay on a low-carb regimen, exceeding no more than 15 carbs per snack. I get hungry very often and find the need to munch - but appetite is very selective…..salads don't fill, neither do raw veggies….fruit is a problem because they’ve a lot of natural sugars, so i have to limit the portion.
Is there a good snack (low-carb), that’s not fattening - that has worked for you?
Answer:
Unfortunately I don't know about diabetes but I’ve practiced low carb for quite a while. Here are some of the things I use to keep healthy and low carb:
1) Turkey Breast from the Deli (Sometimes wrapped in a low carb / high fiber tortilla)
2) Sugar free jello! Completely free food
3) Nuts (unsalted, bulk)
Hope these help. I use a ton of fruits and veggies in my diet… but you discussed these already.
Answer:
Sugar-free pudding and sugar-free soda can be just as tasty as their sugar-sweetened counterparts.
Stick with pretzels over chips to decrease fat intake. If you’ve chips, select baked over fried.

Answer:
I like lightly or unsalted nuts; cashew, almonds or pistachios. Around 10:00am I eat about 1/4 cup, seems to work. Jerky works once in while, some are too salty. I also find yogurt, plain, works is a nice change.
