Love Dessert? Here’s How You Can Have Some!



As the oh so ‘bachelory’ doctor Travis Stork said “When dieting, if you give up food you cannot live without, you are setting yourself up for failure.”

Most of us love desserts, right? If you have a sweet-tooth, maybe you shouldn’t throw dessert out the window because this could lead to some late night binging activity. Here are a few ideas to let yourself have something sweet for under 200 calories.

Jell-O Mousse Temptations: With flavors like chocolate indulgence, dark chocolate decadence, and caramel crème, this is a great way to have something sweet without indulging in tons of ice-cream. And guess what? It’s perfectly portioned and only 60 calories.

Nutella: One tablespoon of Nutella is about 100 calories in all its creamy hazelnut goodness. And so you can bathe low calorie snacks like carrots and celery in some Nutella to give it that creamy sweet taste. One cup of carrots is about 50 calories, and two celery sticks is about 15 calories.

Ice Pops: In the summer, we all love our ice pops. And they contain about 50 calories or less, so go ahead and have one :)

Do you have any low-calories sweet delights that you turn to? Please share.

Cheers Eights & Weights!
