  • I'm online quite a bit both at home and at work so I just leave a tab open in my browser with this site and it's just a click away. I also try to plan in advance as much as possible (which it isn't always, but when I can) If I can't pre-plan my meals (like if i go to my parents' for the weekend and don't know what they're…

  • Hey Danica =) glad you found your way here! i know nothing about jogging or running but i've seen people talking on here about a program called "Couch to 5k".

Adding lots of veggies makes it a lot more filling without adding tons of calories, i generally use broccoli, carrots and celery…
    in Low cal dinner suggestion? Comment by TracyV February 2010

I'm thinking cereal of some kind (we'll see what's good and maybe on sale lol) and might check the bulk section for some dried fruit and maybe some nuts.

  • don't know if you're an ice cream fan but yesterday I picked up a box of Skinny Cow Mini Fudge Bars. Just 50 calories and enough to satisfy me if i get a bad ice cream or chocolate craving that won't go away. They're yummy and low on everything else (fat, sodium, etc) too. I don't plan on eating them every day or anything…
