SNACK SMART ~ My Favorite Low Cal Snacks
It’s not easy having a food blog and not overeating.
Mostly I eat whatever I want, but watch portion control.
I also try to snack sensibly.
Following are some of my favorite snacks.
Puffed wheat cereal is the lowest calorie cereal that I’ve found at 80 calories per cup.
Use unsweetened Almond milk at 30 calories a serving.

If you want creamy, not crunchy, try Greek yogurt for 100 calories.,
My favorite for my whole life!
Now, let’s keep it real, I don’t measure my servings with a tablespoon.
Therefore, I’m sure I eat more calories than I should with this snack.
However, it does provide a healthy dose of protein, calcium, potassium and vitamin C.
Tip-Buy small bananas!

Tip: Pre-measure portion in small jars so you won’t be tempted to eat too much!
Snack sensibly and remember to laugh, love and exercise!

I just tried Yoplait Greek yogurt for the first time recently, after eating only “regular” before that. I was surprised at how much more delicious and healthy it was! There was almost no comparison. And banana and peanut butter… yummy!
Thanks for joining in on my Healthy Tuesday hop.

Good choices! I have been horrible with snacking lately. I never used to be big on sweets but now suddenly, I am. Luckily, I don't really have a huge problem with controlling my weight. I jog 3-4 times per week and try not to eat too many sweets! I love the Kashi and Nature Valley bars. Right now we have been buying Nature Valley Protein bars. They are peanut butter and dark chocolate bars. So good!
