*** Congrats to Debbie Jackson who won the Fiber-One gift pack!! ***

I was lucky enough to have an opportunity through MyBlogSpark to try Fiber One’s 90-Calorie Chewy Bars.    I’m always torn about buying cereal bars.  I really hate that many bars are full of nasty non-food (HFCS, etc.) but they are SOOOOO convenient, especially when we are running behind and DD hasn’t eaten yet.

I was sent a box of chocolate-flavored bars in my gift pack (also available in Chocolate Peanut Butter) and they were really pretty good!   Not only were they tasty but they weren’t bad as far as ingredients go.   According to the information I received from General Mills, they contain 2.5 grams of fat and each serving is packed with five grams of fiber (20 percent of the daily recommended fiber intake, according to the Institute of Medicine), which can help keep you full, making sticking to a diet easier.

I was pretty impressed.   Easy to transport and the texture was excellent for even little ones.   I think my 2yo ate most of the box :).

    Hi Jen!

    My best weight management tip is too keep a relatively good but sweet cereal on hand to munch on after the kids go to bed. (Kashi Island Canilla Wheats or Cascadia Farm’s Dark Chocolate Almond Granola are my current favorites.) Sure better than the ice cream that I used to eat every night.

    My best workout tip is to get up early and do it before everyone gets up in the morning. (And I am decidedly *not* a morning person.) That way I “get it over with”, I am energized enough to get the kids ready for the day, and I did something for myself to start the day, which greatly improves my daily outlook.
