Using a healthy alternative will help you eliminate the craving, and keep the calorie count down.

They Are Filled with perservatives and sugar!


  • Granola Bars - They are filled with perservatives and sugar, and are mostly high on the calorie side of things, and don't make you full

  • Tea/Fruit Drinks - These may seem like a healthy alternative, but most of them are packed with sugar!

  • Pretzels - Pretzels are mostly high in sodium and very calorie empty.

  • Muffins - Most muffins at the coffee shops are not up near the 500 calorie range, and very high in fat

  • "REAL" Fruit Snacks - Don't be fooled. It's all sugar
