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.

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 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 just tried Kashi’s Dark Mocha Almond granola bars today. Yum!!!!! They’re new at my store and since I love chocolate, coffee and almonds they seemed like a home run. And they were! There’s big pieces of almond, dark chocolate chips and a yummy coffee taste. All that yumminess only costs 2 Weight Watchers points (but check the box yourself because serving sizes and ingredients can change).

Today’s diet plan boys and girls is this, “ Eat egg whites for breakfast along with 8 ounces of fat free milk and one slice of whole grain toast, salad greens with vinegar and a splash of olive oil for lunch along with an apple, and a plain chicken breast with steamed vegetables for dinner. If you’re really hungry in the evening and just have to have something, then you can splurge and eat a half cup of nonfat cottage cheese. And drink a bunch of water throughout the day” Does that sound delicious or so boring that you’d almost rather eat nothing?
