Between all the binging this holiday season we need some healthy, low-calorie snacks. The best choices are of course vegetables and fruits, but if you need or want something packaged, crispy, and salty, give these seaweed snacks a try.
They come in sesame and wasabi (my favorite), and are only 30 calories per serving. Yum!

November 28, 2011 at 5:04 pmIt sounds cheesy but by reminding myself how much I enjoy healthy foods and eating well, at Thanksgiving my plate held roasted vegetables, green salad and homemade vinaigrette (my contribution), roasted turkey, and a small spoonful each of dressing and sweet potato casserole. I ate until I was full, just right. It was not hard! Now I’ve just got to keep on, keeping on!

November 29, 2011 at 6:57 pmI find that almost everywhere I go this time of year, businesses have bowls of candy or plates of baked goods out for patrons. I also find that these behaviors are habitual for me…so if I “let” myself have a cookie today, then I crave another tomorrow. I make a deal with myself to save my splurges for something I REALLY like so I can maximize the pleasure and minimize the consequences to my waistline. A giant piece of pie is such a special treat–and so much better than 20 pieces of grocery store candy over the course of a week.
