I’m big on eating and I like to eat a lot. More or less, I feel like eating sometihng almost all the time. After every 15-20 minutes I would want something to munch on or to drink.
Recently, I have been somewhat uncatious and that resulted in putting on 4-6 lbs that I’m having a very hard time to shed.
What are some recommended snacks that can be taken often, but don’t necessarily contribute towards gaining weight?

it doens't matter what you eat, if you don't burn the amt of calories youtake in you will gain weight or not lose. U gotta do some exercise wiht it...as for foods, vegetables and fruits r always safe, almonds r good too i think, n low/no fat yogurt is a good idea as well

apples. I have heard that they are a negative calorie food which means that it takes more calories than the food has to digest it.
carrots, cantaloupe, mango, orange, watermelon are all negative calorie foods.

Mango too? I doubt it. Thats high in calories, period.

There aren't really any snacks that won't make you gain weight. If you're consuming more calories than you burn off then inevitably it will lead to weight gain.
If you're feeling hungry so quickly after eting then you probably aren't eating the right kind of food to keep you feeling full ie foods with a low Glycemic Index.
Anyway some snacks that have relatively less calories when compared to other foods include:

I eat plenty of food in one sitting, which is another problem. I'm trying to eat less rather than overfilling myself.
Fruits sound alright, but I'm not a big fruits & vegetables fan. I guess I'm left with no choice, but to depend on fruits and carrots/cucumbers.

Celery is a food that requires more energy to digest than you ingest. So it's like you burn calories just by eating it.
Re: Snacks that don't increase one's weight
Mangoes should never be consumed if you are trying to lose weight. They are extremely high in calories and fat.
