Big Food Little Calories

Options
did you know a large 1/2 inch slice of tomato is 5 calories- I love tomato sandwiches in the summer

Iceberg lettuce is less than 5 calories for 1/2 cup- great for a crunch on my sandwich

What other food is filling and very low calories- less than 40 calories

    Why?
    You should be eating around 1600-2k a day if you are 5'5" with a body fat% of around 30....

    Lettuce?
    Salads?
    Carrots?
    um.....

    Check the link on my profile to be sure you are eating the proper amount of calories per day.
    That way you wont have to worry about low cal foods.
    =D

    Are you talking about shiritaki? Try a Hungry Girl recipe for it, since the noodle consistancy is a little different I wouldn't recommend just shiritaki and pasta sauce.
