Best 100kcal Snack Ever!

I am pleased to annouce that after just 3 weeks, I have managed to drop a comfortable 3 kg! What a wonderful feeling it was to step on the scale yesterday and see that the little marker was below the 80 kg point - a very happy 79 kg! This is the best feeling I've had in weeks, and is such an inspiration to carry on eating healthily and exercising the way I have been. To be honest, following a specific diet - like a low G.I./low G.L./low carb diet is very tricky for me - but I have taken recipe ideas from each of these plans but suited it to myself. However, by using the Spark People website, and actually making a point of tracking my calorie intake, as well as having a record of how much I've achieved at gym, I've found the key to my success!

Now there are several products that have helped me so far, one of which being the Trimspa Froodia snack bar, which so far I've only seen available from Sunset Pharmacy in Sea Point. As a low calorie snack, it's fairly inexpensive and tastes absolutely delicious - they are just like eating dried fruit bars and don't have the slightest aftertaste at all. As a snack, it's fantastic because it gives you that sweet pick-me-up so often lacking in a diet - and with only 100kcal, you can't go wrong. Also, if you're into Hoodia gordonii (the succulent plant used by the San to stave off hunger), and aren't really up to swallowing pills - it's a great way to get 400mg into your system! Another plus is its low G.I. value, as well as the fact that it's fat free and a good source of dietary fibre. It's also made in a nut-free, soy-free South African facility and is Kosher certified.
