    So I stumbled across Sarah Lee Whole wheat Pita pockets the other day and their amazing! ONE WHOLE PITA POCKET FOR 80CAL'S!!!

I will forever put spinach dip into my tuna salad now!! Then topped it off with some letuce tomato and onion Voila' an AMAZING...UNDER 250CAL LUNCH, and more then filling, I haven't even started on the second half yet and am considering saving it for my afternoon snack ;) ENJOY PAL'S!!

      That sounds good, i have to try that. I am so stuffed right now, really weird. I am working out to the beach body cds. So i did both of the ab work out and the 20 minute kick boxing cd. I had a egg cooked over medium with a turkey sausage then for a snack i had two celery sticks with organic peanut butter, two tablespoons. So i'm not even hungry for lunch or and 3 glasses of tall glasses of water. Keep me updated on yours too. we are all here to help each other out.

      Awsome find on the pita pockets. Its better than the 120 cals in 2 slices of bread and taste so much better. And great thinking with the spincah dip. Thanks for posting!!

      What the heck kinda bread have you been eatig? LOL, kidding...have you tried Sarah Lee 100% whole wheat 45cal bread, a little pricey at times but it is soooooo fluffy and yummy, not like other "low-cal" breads!!

      Hehe I'm allergic to them, but I sneak them anyway!! If the acidity is low enough I most of the time can get away with it!!
