Whether you’re getting ready to bare it all at the beach, trying to eat more healthfully, or simply looking to lose a few pounds, these tips can help.

What you might not realize is how delicious these satisfying snacks can be. So go ahead! Dig into these tasty treats and get bikini-ready!—Sarah Karl

GO SKINNY DIPPING!
Sure, whole grains, lean protein, and veggies are good for you. But The Skinny Cow Skinny Dipper pops give you the creamy taste of summer without the unwanted calories of other ice creams. At 80 calories and 3g of fat per pop, it’s time to dive in!
ROLL WITH THE KIDS.
Do kids know something we don’t? There’s a reason turkey-and-cheese roll-ups are a crowd pleaser. They’re fun, they’re easy, they taste great, and they provide you with satisfying protein to help keep you going till your next meal. For a variation, roll the wraps in a leaf of romaine.
CREATE YOUR OWN CULTURE.
Yogurt’s not just for breakfast anymore. But instead of relying on the presweetened brands, create a do-it-yourself mix to satisfy your mood. Create different combos starting with plain yogurt, vanilla or almond extract, a few walnuts or fruit, and a touch of honey.
MIX IT UP.
Ever find yourself facing the “salt or sweet” dilemma? Try combining the two to curb your cravings. Add a touch of almond extract to low-fat cottage cheese, then sprinkle with salted nuts. Or go the other way—seasoning the cottage cheese with a touch of cinnamon and fresh fruit.
CRUNCH THE NUMBERS.
Potato chips can cost you serious calories. So if you’re craving a crispy, savory snack, create your own. Cut whole-wheat pitas into small triangles. Sprinkle with water, then sprinkle with the seasoning of your choice. Bake until toasty and dip into hummus, cottage cheese, or dill- and lemon-spiked yogurt.

Hummus wraps are the perfect snack anytime ... I like them best with avocado, greens and tomaotes.
