Extreme Makeover--Me Edition-Week 1

I am participating over at Amber's blog in Extreme Makeover--Me Edition. This is about weight loss, getting healthy, and learning from others.

I started exercising and calorie counting in Jan and since that time my weight has yo-yo'ed 5lbs. Really, its been kind of annoying. I get happy for losing the weight and then it comes back. I just don't get it. Maybe I get over confident? This is the first time in my life that I have ever had to watch what I eat. I was always the girl who could eat whatever she wanted. I ate junk all day and didn't gain a pound. Age is slowly stopping that. blech!

Today's question: Do you have any low calorie snacks that you'd like to share?

I eat pretzels every. single. night. I like to snack while watching TV, I know that's not good but I allow myself enough calories to still eat at night. So I count out my 19 mini pretzels and The Husband and I watch TV and snack.....him eating junk food but it doesn't bother me because I am still eating something.

I also love the Curves Apple Streusel Bars and Chex Mix Turtle Bars. I posted about them before here and here. There is also info in there about the calorie counter that I use at Livestrong.com.

Have a great week and remember this is a work in progress!!
