Funny, I was thinking about posting a thread like this. Ocean Spray cranberry pomegranate water mixer. It is 5 calories, not zero like most, but the taste is amazing and not too sweet.
I ordered some flat out hungry girl fold-it's. they're like tortilla buns. 100 calories but really good.
Fiber one makes a protein bar that tastes just like a candy bar.
Of course I love my EAS Advantage pre-packaged protein shakes. Chocolate Fudge, yum!
Probably the product that's helped me the most is Maple Grove Farms Fat Free Balsamic Vinegarette. It's 15 calories for 2 Tablespoons. Love it!!! But you kinda have to like vinegar.
Thanks for the tip on the chicken hot dogs. I love hot dogs. I will have to try them.
They come in little tube shaped packages, probably 8 or 10 to a box. They're typically used a tube per 16 oz. bottle of water, but that's a bit strong for my tastes. I usually put in about 3/4 of the little tube/packet.0 -
Dried cranberries. A small amount (10g) on Bran Flakes or sprinkled over a salad really gives the food a sweet and slightly chewy kick and all for only 30 calories or so...0
-
plain yogurt, full fat. It fills you up and lasts a while. I could live on dairy.0
-
Chobani 0% Greek Yogurt. Load with fresh berries in addition to the flavors. 140 cals plus berries.
Trader Joes Lime Floes - Popsickle that is just 60 calories and they taste like slightly sweetened fresh limes. Awesome.
Popchips BBQ when I need something salty.0 -
smaller portions of all the stuff i already like0

smaller portions of all the stuff i already like
Or less frequent indulgences and weeding out the ones that really weren't that special but I wasn't turning down before. Why eat ice cream if it isn't Butter Pecan or Chocolate Moose Tracks (my 2 favorites)?
For a quick healthy snack I like a small handful of raisins and almonds. You have to be careful with the portions on that though.
Kashi Go Lean Crunch cereals are a good popcorn alternative that can double as a meal.0 -
Sugar snap peas- have become a staple around here when I need some crunch
Quaker "popped" rice cake minis- all different favors
Dryers outshine fruit bars- small size- no sugar added, and only have 30 calories!

With the spring and summer holidays upon us....these are my new "must haves for the upcoming season:
Oscar Meyer "select" chicken breast hot dogs "-80 cals per link
Sweet leaf unsweetened organic black tea w/lime - 0 cal
"Skinny Girl" margarita - 37.5 cals /per 1 0z serving -my favorite:) what's yours?
I have to find that Sweet Leaf unsweetend black tea with lime! I love the mint and honey one.
I've been on a strawberry kick. I just ate 3/4 a container and only maybe 72 calories (weighed for accuracy).0 -
Blue Bell Banana Fudge Bar - 100 calories, yum0
-
Sugar free jello w/whipped topping, cucumber slices w/seasoned rice vinegar and sugar free Fudgesicles.0
-
Arctic Zero...OMG! It is 150 calories for the entire pint of frozen nom nom ness! Try vanilla maple. Throw on a teaspoon of almond slivers and a squirt of whipped cream...be ready to be happy happy!
(Arctic zero is frozen whey protein. You probably could make at home but for some reason I can't get it creamy like the store brand)0 -
Vanilla low fat greek yogurt with crushed pineapple. Yum!!! Or FF Cottage Cheese with crushed pineapple!!0
-
Strawberries. I just had 560g (about a pound and a quarter) and it was only 179 calories (and 11g fiber)0

Kim's Magic Pop. Not like any rice cake I remember! They help quench the carb craving!0
-
take ground chicken breast mix in taco seasoning (homemade with no sugar), then make a romaine lettuce leaf taco! Low carb, very spicey and yummy!0
-
Chocolate cake with white frosting--147 per sqaure piece.0
-
Stove-popped ladyfinger popcorn; you can add whatever seasonings you want and the kernels are smaller so you feel like you're eating more.

Cucumber slices with a wedge of Laughing Cow light cheese topped with a craisin is delicious!
goooooood idea!! I am addicted to the following...
- laughing cow light cheese, as aforementioned
- triscuit thin crisps topped with a light cream cheese, seafood sauce and imitation crab
- pita bites (they're from costco...sensible portions is the brand i think)
- open nature frozen greek yogurt in honey flavor or vanilla topped with berries or half a banana for a high protein and incredibly indulgent feeling dessert
- a big old bowl of cucumber slices with coarse salt and vinegar
- roasted chickpeas w coarse salt & garam masala
Meal wise, about 75% of the new recipes I've tried have been from skinnytaste. OMNOMazing!
Ps. I realize this isn't low cal so much as no cal but I've discovered that diet pop makes me want all the world's junkfood so instead I started drinking grapefruit Perrier, which got expensive so I switched to club soda and bought a ton of citrus and it's a really refreshing drink!0 -
