Special K has added to their arsenal of products with strawberry and blueberry fruit crisps. They’re shaped like a cereal bar but have a crispy outer shell and fruity filling that’s similar to a pop tart. On the plus side; each foil wrapped packet of 2 crisps is 100 calories – an okay calorie count for a snack or for a light dessert.

I used to be one of those people that would order a salad for my meal whenever I went out, thinking that it was always the healthiest choice on the menu. Then I got educated and found out a salad can be one of the highest calorie and fat items on the entire menu and that I would have consumed less calories by ordering a steak or a burger (with potatoes!).

Skinny Cow Truffle Bars are a scrumpdillyicious ice cream treat! They’re 100 calories each and are so good I could eat the whole box; not just over the course of a week or two; but in an hour or two!

Have you had Weight Watchers Fruities? They’re kind of like a gummy candy but much more chewy; actually kind of rubbery but they have good flavor.

After getting an e-mail from Hungry Girl and reading that she’s been flooded with e-mails saying that people love Digiorno’s new 200 calorie portions of pizza and that they were just 5 Weight Watchers points ,I jumped on the bandwagon and hunted them down so I could try them myself because, seriously, who doesn’t love pizza?

After seeing 6 commercials for McDonald’s Big Mac Snack Wrap on television last night I decided I had to have it today for lunch. The “full on” version of the Big Mac used to be my “go-to” sandwich when I wanted a fast food lunch, but at 540 calories and 29 grams of fat it became a very infrequent treat when I got serious about weight loss.

I found Galaxy Granola at my local natural foods store several months ago when I was looking for a granola that didn’t have high fructose corn syrup, artificial ingredients or preservatives in it; and also was hoping to find something that didn’t have the equivalent of the calories for an entire meal in one small handful of it.

Starbucks has a new line of packaged snacks. I noticed them right away when I walked into Starbucks this morning (my nose always gravitates right towards the food). Among them are packages of cookies from Dr. Lucy’s; sugar, chocolate chip, and cinnamon thins.
I chose the cinnamon thins to try after dutifully [...]

I tried a fresco style crunchy taco at Taco Bell yesterday, but just one. I wasn’t holding out much hope that it was going to taste good because what’s a taco without cheese? (which is why I only ordered one instead of two or three.) But I was pleasantly surprised. It was really good (either that or I was really hungry). I actually didn’t miss the cheese at all and I’m from Wisconsin where we pretty much think everything is better with cheese!
