    Dole has chocolate covered frozen bananas. 4 to a pack. They are yummy and just enough for me.

    I don't deny myself a yummy treat when I want one. I just plan ahead for dessert every night. If I don't eat it no harm done and if I indulge I'm covered. Skinny Cow has some yummy treats if you want low cal desserts.

    I really don't believe in denying yourself either. I always leave room for dessert, and I never feel deprived. I don't think anyone should feel guilty about food ever. I think that goes against everything we're trying to improve. Leave room for whatever you're craving in your calories/macros and party on!

    I LOVE making a concoction that's an ice cream consistency using frozen bananas & vanilla soy milk. You can add 1 T of peanut butter for some extra protein and good fats (I'm currently liking Natural Jif for the better list of ingredients) and I sometimes add 1T ground flaxseed and occasionally add 1 tsp of Hersheys syrup (if we have it in the house).

    I also make a smoothie with frozen banana, frozen cherries (pretty inexpensive at Trader Joes) with a 1/2 scoop of Whey Protein powder that my hubby buys at Costco and vanilla soy milk.

    The Power Crunch vanilla crème protein bars are like a white chocolate wafer cookie to me.

    Or 130 cal mini Oreo snack paks, sugar free pudding cups, fudgesicles, froyo, or lowfat, slow churned ice cream.

    So many options out there! I always leave room in my cals for the day for a treat, especially on active days.
