Every girl needs a little chocolate in their life. But I am not every girl. I need more than just a little chocolate in my life. Like, truckloads more. But since truckloads aren't feasible (where would I park a semi?), I'll have to deal with a couple of doses each day.
And when trying to lose weight, chocolate is (contrary to previous beliefs) NOT a girl's best friend. Darn it.
In my opinion, there are very few truly yummy, slightly lite chocolate foods. One of which is the Reduced Fat Oreo (thank you, Nabisco!) and the Skinny Cow (if you haven't tried these, now is the time). And yesterday, I added one more to my chocolate-you-can-have-while-losing-weight list.
I was doing some weekly grocery shopping at Aldi, my cheap-store-of-choice, when I happened upon these little gems:
Pretty freakin fabulous. Three dollars worth of pure, chocolaty, creamy heaven. I've had these before by other brands, but had forgotten them (probably because they were overpriced?) In the dorms at K-State, they used to serve these and would would hoard them in our mini-fridge.
My advice? Fill your freezers now, gals. These things won't last long with me in town!
The actual fudgesicle brand makes a sugar free pop that has less than 50 calories. Probably not as tasty, but it got the job done. Because I'm a proclaimed addict as well.
ReplyDeleteUm, I had a slice of oreo ice cream pie today- that's what chocolate had done for me! Pretty sure it is not listed on the diet friendly items, but so good! :) Oh, and I'm on vacation!
