Hey guys! So why are we talking low calorie desserts you might ask? Remember how I told you that I was starting the game on health challenge last Monday? Well I did it, and I had a really great week. I won't lie and say it wasn't hard, because it was. We were home in SLC visiting family (we are actually still there) and it is always so much harder eating healthy when you are "on vacation" and don't have your own kitchen, isn't it? I am really proud of myself for sticking to it, and I can guarantee you that if I hadn't been doing the challenge I would have actually gained weight and I lost! Anyway, although I do want to lose weight, the reason behind this challenge for me is to make a lifestyle change. I am a realist enough to know that I cannot (nor do I want to) give up sugar or treats all together. I love celebrating with food, because it makes me happy. I know that can get unhealthy, so I have been on the hunt for ways to make special pick me up treats that fit into our new healthy lifestyle. I thought some of y0u might be interested so I'm sharing the list here today! Even though these desserts are low calorie, they will definitely curb your sweet tooth!

I love this! One of my favorite skinny desserts is this:

Also the fiber1 90-cal brownies (just the chocolate ones) are great in a pinch if you don't feel like baking. Especially in the microwave for a few seconds with some lite cool whip on top. And with all the fiber, I'm never tempted to have seconds...
The frozen hot chocolate linked to something else for me, could you fix that please?
Thanks for this post!
