My pedometer says I am doing about 3.5 mph to 4.5 mph, depending on the day. I feel like I am moving faster then that. But after calculating my miles to minutes.

baby bell light swiss?
Okay, recently bought some baby bell light swiss. I had been under my daily calorie goals and someone else had these in their dairy log. Is this a bad snack at 35 calories a piece or do you think it is good and helps me reach my daily calorie intake for the day. I use it when I am a little hungry but not ready for a meal.
