DAIRY:
1. Reduced fat milk … I always buy skim to save on calories while getting my vitamins in.
2. Reduced fat cheese
3. Egg replacement product … I love EggBeaters egg whites only.

6. Oranges
7. Apples
8. Strawberries
9. Apricots
10. Bing cherries

12. Cantaloupe
13. Guava
14. Watermelon

VEGETABLES:
15. Broccoli
16. Carrots
17. Legumes … I get canned here because they have a better shelf life.
18. Spinach

24. Avocados
25. Collard greens

GRAINS:
26. Whole wheat breads
25. Whole wheat sandwich buns
26. Whole wheat dinner rolls
27. Brown rice … I’m careful to read the labels, because many brands are just died brown.

29. Whole wheat pasta
30. Steel cut oatmeal … I was resistant to this, but after I saw Dr. Oz talk about it on Oprah, I tried it and love it!
31. Barley

33. Lean ground beef
34. Skinless chicken breast or tenderloin
35. Turkey cutlets
36. Pork chops
37. Lean lunch meat … I love the Boar’s Head brand from my local deli.
38. Canned light tuna, packed in water

SNACKS:
40. Light popcorn … I love kettle popcorn when I need a salty snack that’s still healthy.
41. Graham crackers
42. Nuts
43. Seeds
44. Trail mix … My favorite is Fisher Nature’s Nut Mix because it isn’t too salty or sweet.
45. Applesauce
46. Canned fruits, packed in water
47. Vegetable chips, baked
48. Raisins … I’m careful of dried fruit because it packs more calories per bite, but I just love Sunmaid Raisins.
49. Pretzels
50. Granola bars … I love Nature’s Valley Peanut Butter because its only 90 calories a bar.
