Day 123: Curb your cravings with Hungry Girl

Check it out my waist watching friends, hungrygirl.com. If you're like me, especially you ladies, you've spent a good chunk of your life counting calories, trying the diet of the week and looking for the latest and greatest in weight loss. And, if you're also like me, you've realized it's no easy road achieving that goal... you can only eat so many carrot sticks and plain chicken breasts and skipping dessert eventually gets REALLY old, not to mention close to impossible. I mean, sometimes you just CRAVE chocolate and will knock down children and the elderly and go out without your makeup to get your hands on some. I must say Hungry Girl is a pretty good solution to our problem. It's got alternates to your fast food favorites, low cal desserts that promise no lack of flavor and tips for staying on track when eating out. Plus, if you're a Weight Watchers fan, it's WW friendly when it comes to listing the points in each item. You can even follow it on Facebook and Twitter and sign up for daily emails that offer recipes and tips. I just followed a tip to check out Jello's mousse cups - 60 calories and delicious! Definitely hits that chocolate craving! I also got my hands on a cookbook (thanks Mom!) so my next venture: Onion Rings made with Fiber One cereal...the picture looks delicious. I only hope I can carry it out. Check it out and let me know what you think! I'll keep you posted on my onion rings...I mean, nothing can take the place of the real deep fried goodness, but if I can have a tasty substitute AND shrink my waistline, I'm on board...
