Some of my favorite products

I thought I would share some of my favorite products for helping to get the weight off and still providing nutrition.

Favorite tortilla:

At only 80 calories and with 10 g of fiber, 3 g of protein, and 200 mg of sodium this is by far the best tortilla out there.  I love making tuna wraps, burritos with pinto beans and tomatoes, and a peanut butter and strawberry wrap for lunch.  They are so versatile!

Favorite tuna fish:

This entire pouch has 80 calories, 130 mg of sodium, and 19 g of protein.  Combined with the toritilla above, it can really keep you full and energized for quite a while!  Plus, this doesn't have loads of sodium like many other tunas do. 

Favorite sweetener:

Splenda plus fiber is awesome!  Not only do you get the no calorie sweetening that Splenda normally offers, but now you can have 1 g of fiber for every packet you use.  Why not add a little fiber for no extra calories?

Favorite cool treat:

Yep, the favorite of many of us as kids - Otter Pops!  They have no HFCS and are sweetened with fruit juice.  One tube is only 40 calories and perfect for enjoying on a summer day.  Plus, they come in 6 flavors.  Gotta love Otter Pops!

Favorite snack:

Orville Redenbacher Smart Pop Kettle Corn is great because it is both sweet and salty and only 19 calories a cup popped.  I usually give 3 cups as a snack so only 60 calories!  And 3 cups is a large snack that can really be enjoyed.  Plus this snack offers nearly 4 g of fiber.  Yum!

Favorite drink:

Talking Rain Sparkling Ice is so yummy!  It is sweet and delicious tasting and it is fizzy so it seems like a soda.  It even has some real fruit juice and vitamins in it.  It comes in a bunch of flavors like black raspberry, orange mango, lemon-lime, lemonade, pomegranite, etc.

Favorite bread:

Oroweat/Arnold whole wheat sandwich thins.  I love that you can make a whole sandwich (and a decent sized one, too!) for 100 calories.  There is no yucky crust to deal with, either, so that's another plus.


I will probably do another post like this as we get closer to fall with some cool weather favorites as well.  If you have your own favorites, please feel free to leave them in the comments!
