What snack can I munch on with my coffee? That's LOW in carbs

I am a real coffee fan and I have managed to take out the calories by not having milk and sugar in it. Now I am looking around for a light snack that I can I have with my coffee that's low in carbs and not full of sugar.

Now coffee and boiled egg, coffee and tuna, coffee and cheese AND coffee and air all have something in comment; they're weird!

So can anyone throw any ideas my way?

Much appriciated,
Andrew

Sugar-free Jello with a dab of Coolwhip won't do much damage either.

Vegetables are also low in carbs: carrots, peppers, celery, cucumbers, etc. Not that this goes with coffee but it helps take the edge off!; ▶ Reply to This

That's what I thought--@ 28 weeks sounds like it may be a tough choice for women to "break" the cycle, though. Thanks for posting this very important information which, I'm sure, will benefit women for something to be aware of.

yes, of course, we don't know what causes gestational diabetes, but we have some clues. The placenta supports the baby as it grows. Hormones from the placenta help the baby develop. But these hormones also block the action of the mother's insulin in…
