    One phrase: thank God for Skinny Cow Ice Cream Sandwiches!!!!!! They come in chocolate :D

    I sooo agree and it is HOT here so anything cold is great. Love the frozen grape idea will try it. Also make "happy juice" in a blender I mix ice, water 1 tbls of frozen lemonaide, and Herbalife's herbal tea concentrate 1 1/2 to 2 teaspoons. More cold things are Philly Swirl Swirl Stix at 48 calories and fat, dairy, and gluten free. Going to get creative with the blender and fresh fruit, ice and water to see what I can come up with in smoothies. Just bought some fresh limes, and pineapple.

    The Jello temptation chocolate mouse cups are sugar free and only 60 calories and they are so good!! It's like eating chocolate mouse no joke! Also I love the quaker chocolate drizzle rice cakes. Those are bomb. Skinny cows are a must. Just make sure you have the will power to eat just one ha ha.

    a 60 calories sugar free chocolae pudding cup and a tsp of reduced fat PB mixed in. tastes just like a recess peanut butter cup!

    Tip if you try it. (melt the Pb a bit in the microwave first so its easier to stir in.

    Celery and garlic herb Laughing Cow cheese wedge. Or a Queso Fresco Laughing Cow cheese wedge, 1 whole wheat tortilla, and some salsa. So good!

    WOO! that's a treat, right there. it's so nice to find a drink that's not killer on the calories. plus it's full of antioxidants.

    I also love lime flavored sparkling water. i squeeze a lemon wedge in to make it extra tangy. it ends up being almost 1 cal after the lemon. :D

    Whoa! This is totally me!! I like to eat these things for lunch and dinner too :) I had multigrain pancakes for breakfast and laughing cow for a snack! I added eggs into my taco meat/ spanish rice mixture for some more bulk so I wouldn't be hungry later. Eggs are amazing!

    I also like greek yogurt, Luna bars, amy's organic frozen meals, light english muffins, baking my own fries...yum!

    Currently I've been eating the Michoacana Coconut icecream bars. They are 190 cals. A little on the high end of cals but OMG I love coconut and they are to die for good.

    Cookies & Cream Skinny Cow Icecream Sandwiches

    Healthy Choice Fudge bars - like frozen chocolate milk on a stick

    Pirate Booty if I want something salty

    I'm on very low carb diet at the moment and to bulk up my small meals through out the day I eat a lot of tomatoes and cucumbers mixed with some Balsamic vinegar. If I'm having a sweet tooth I will mix a packet of Splenda in with the vinegar or sprinkle a tad bit of salt and a load of pepper if I don't have a sweet tooth. I love the Balsamic vinegar, it is a life saver for me :)

    I recently discovered 100 calorie cups of Yo Crunch Cheesecake yogurt that come with graham cracker crumbles to mix in. Mmm.


    Honestly, the best thing I ever did was invest in some good low calorie salad dressings. I bought a whole bunch of different flavors so that I don't get bored of salads. Also - keeping low cal dressing with you at all times keeps it easy to eat a better meal at restaurants with no low calorie salad dressing options.

    I'll take 2 scoops of chocolate whey protein powder, a bunch of crushed ice, water and 10-15 whole, unground coffee beans and throw it in the Magic Bullet. Kinda my version of a healthy Starbucks.

    That's interesting...never thought about throwing in some raw coffee beans in my smoothie! I will have to try it.

    I LOVE my magic bullet.

    I just discovered kale chips! I make my own in the oven. I tear up some kale and spin the water off in a salad spinner, making sure the leaves are totally dry. Then I toss the kale with a tsp of olive oil and bake in the oven (350 degrees) for 12 minutes. If they're not done, keep checking on them every two minutes until they're nice and crispy. Then I sprinkle a bit of kosher salt on them. They are sooooo yummy!

    In the mornings I have cheese grits. Yes, CHEESE grits. :) And they're not specifically marked as a diet food. It's just quaker instant grit packets. 1 gram of fat per packet, and two packets are completely filling.

    It may sound odd and it took a couple of tries before I really liked it. Instead of dressings on salad, I use pico de gallo. Not only do a get a 1/2 cup vs. 2 Tbs, but it beats salsas and dressings in sodium!!
    Because I make my own, I can make it as spicy as I want. :)
