Dieting during the holiday season classifies as cruel and unusual punishment, doesn’t it? If you have the dedication and drive to be on a diet especially during this time of year, you’ll want to learn how to eat healthy snacks too. I’ve been on the Keto diet since May, and I have to say, I’m thrilled with my results – 40 pounds and counting!  Finding healthy snacks has been one of the toughest challenges while on this Keto diet, but thankfully, I’ve discovered a few delicious ways to push away the hunger pains with some healthy snacks that are both good for you and low in carbs too! And don’t worry, it’s not filled with only fruits and nuts!  Recently, I discovered a delicious low carb snack called gimMe Snacks Organic Premium Roasted Seaweed and wow, it’s so delish and good for you too! They harvest the highest quality organic seaweed, roast it to crispy perfection, then season it with their authentic gluten-free seasonings that make it so darn good and a top choice for healthy snack food eating too! This is another low carb healthy way to snack food whether you are on the Keto diet or just looking for healthier snacking alternatives. The calorie and carb count are so low you can barely see it!  If you are a meat eater and love snacking on something savory and loaded with flavor when you snack, then you are going to flip out over these Stryve Biltong Meat Snacks! They are an all-­natural, clean-­ingredient meat snack that is low in sugar, extremely high in protein, and free from additives.   Differentiating itself from jerky and other meat snacks,  Stryve Biltong is never injected or soaked in sugar-­laden marinades and it is air-­dried to retain more of the natural nutrients.  It was founded with the passionate purpose of creating delicious and nutritious high-­protein snacks that help curb cravings and achieve fitness goals.      Stryve Sliced Biltong Variety Pack are my personal favorites! I love snacking when it’s free from guilt and good for you too! These are the solution to healthy snacking when you are on the Keto diet because the carbs are virtually non-existent!  Snacks don’t always have to be food – they can be a healthy beverage too! I always enjoy snacking on a thirst quenching drink especially one that is good for you! I was thrilled to discover Detoxwater and it’s been a daily snacking favorite of mine since!  detoxwater™ is a ready-to-drink beverage made with vitamins, electrolytes, and the highest quality aloe vera. With only 30 calories per bottle, detoxwater delivers the clinically proven benefits of pure aloe juice – an ingredient known to support immune function, healthy digestion, nutrient absorption, and improved skin elasticity. Certified USDA Organic, OU Kosher, vegan, and gluten-free, detoxwater is available in five delicious flavors: Original (Lychee & White Grape), Mangaloe, Piñamint, Peachberry, and Appleberry. Another amazing beverage snack of mine is Grass Fed Butter Coffee! Yep, you heard that right. Delicious ready to drink Grass Fed Butter Coffee! I’m a coffee addict there’s no doubt about it and when I tried this incredibly delish coffee, I was thrilled it was perfect for my Keto diet too. As far as healthy snacks go, this is at the top of my list!  Perfect and convenient for those on Keto, Paleo, intermittent fasting & butter coffee enthusiasts!  This coffee is incredibly smooth and creamy like a decadent latte, and without any sugar!

Known for being exceptionally pure, the water has a naturally low mineral content with nothing added or filtered out. Icelandic Glacial strives to deliver a premium product with as little environmental impact as possible. It is the world’s first water brand to be certified Carbon Neutral for both product and operation, using 100% natural green energy to fuel its production facility. The spring is continuously replenished by rainwater and snowmelt that is gradually filtered over uninhabited and untouched lava fields, though less than 0.1% of the water that flows to the surface of the spring is bottled. Wow, I’m so impressed with how it’s produced and thrilled to have discovered it!  When I’m low on energy I always look to a delicious beverage designed specifically to boost my energy on those low-key days.  UPTIME is a premium energy drink, restoring natural energy while offering mental clarity and focus in a tall, sleek aluminum bottle. It delivers a crisp and refreshing blend of sparkling citrus flavors created with premium non-GMO and gluten-free ingredients like Ginseng, and Gingko Biloba. Available in both Original and Sugar-Free options. UPTIME Energy Drink provides balanced and sustained energy and focus without a crash – it’s ‘how energy should feel.’ I recently discovered Atkins Gluten Free Harvest Trail Snack Bar and its super delish! It’s made of a blend of roasted almonds and peanuts with the rich taste of dark chocolate and sea salt caramel. It has no artificial preservatives, colors, and flavors and 8 grams of protein and 9 grams of fiber per bar with 1 gram of sugar and 4 grams of net carbs per serving! It’s gluten-free and great for a low-carb lifestyle too!  These Whisps Cheese Crisps are amazing too. I love the crunch and cheesy goodness too! They are perfect for replacing potato chips with!
