    My new obsession: Chobani Flip Greek yogurt

    Are you looking for an easy treat that won’t throw your weight loss off-track? I’ve got good news for you! Chobani Flip Greek yogurts are delicious and fairly low-calorie. They do include added sugar, so if that’s not your thing I apologize. But for me, these are the only food with added sugar that I eat, so it’s not that…

    The Perfect Pre-Workout Smoothie

    Lately I’ve been using my rowing machine 5 days a week for 30 minutes (yay me!), but I noticed that later in the day I was getting quite tired. After doing some research, I discovered that I wasn’t getting enough carbs and electrolytes before my workout. Why add carbs like oatmeal? First of all, carbs give you quick energy that…

    Low Calorie Tuna and Salmon Lunch Wraps

    As you know, I eat several small meals every day. And for late lunch I’ve recently been making wraps on lavash bread. Tasty, high-fiber, and low-calorie – lavash is soft and perfect for wraps. I try to eat fish a lot since it is so good for you, and if I had my way I’d have a tuna wrap every…

    Low-Calorie Chocolate Protein Ice Cream

    Protein ice cream made with frozen bananas is amazing. It’s not only incredibly delicious but also surprisingly healthy. I mean, who would’ve thought that a frozen treat could be good for you? Blended frozen bananas give it a creamy texture without the need for any heavy cream or added sugar. Plus, they’re loaded with potassium and dietary fiber, so you’re…

    Low-Calorie Chicken & Cabbage Teriyaki

    This is such an easy dish to prepare, but it tastes like I spent way more time on it. And at just 198 calories it supports my plan to eat frequent low-calorie meals. I’ve been having it around lunch time for days now, and if you eat larger meals than I do, it is super easy to increase the servings…
