Summer Snack Packing

With temperatures rising this summer, if you're like me, you'll want to be near the beach or poolside to beat the heat.  However, choosing snacks to bring along that will also help you maintain your beach body can be difficult.  It's easy to stash a box of crackers or bag of chips in your tote.  It's easy to throw an apple or or string cheese into the bottom of your purse. It's even easier to stop and get fast food along the way or stop at the snack bar. But, if you're like me, you either leave the beach feeling bloated from all the salty, carb-filled snacks or completely hungry from your apple-string cheese teaser.  So why not do a little pre-beach preparation and plan on taking some of these healthy snacks with you to the beach?  For 150 calories or less per snack, you can feel satisfied that you a) aren't starving, b) aren't bloated and c) will still be able to pull off that bikini tomorrow!
