    If you really want it, have it! Just buy one individiually-wrapped one at a convenience store or something...that way, it has a wrapper, so you know how many calories are in it, and you won't have more than one.
  • Jill your right! I was going to go the coffee shop and get one but they dont tell you the calories, but the store would! I think tho, if I am going to have one, I might as well have homemade - they taste so much better!

    I bought everything I need to make them, and we have family coming today, so if I do make them, they will be gone before I ever get a chance to get a second! haha
  • Here is a recipe for a version of rice krispie bars that are only 80 calories per bar.

    Butterscotch Bars
    1.5 tbsp light margerine
    1/4 cup brown sugar
    1 cup mini marshmallows
    2 cups rice krispies
    1 cup corn flakes

    Melt margarine in a large saucepan. Add sugar and marshmallows. Stir until marshmallows are melted. Stir in cereals, then press into 9 x 9 pan. Cut into 9 squares.

    You could use 3 cups rice krispies instead of the 2 cups krispies + 1 cup corn flakes and it wouldn't change the calories.

    Here is my plan for the day:
    B - Flax Plus cereal with soy milk and blueberries
    S - Tea with soy milk and spenda, fruit
    L - Tuna with hummus, roasted red pepper, eggplant, tomatoes, cucumber, and Crispy Okra Raita on 1/2 whole wheat pita. Tomato and cucumbers with balsamic vinaigrette.
    S - energy bar
    S - NF plain yogurt with wheat germ
    D - Beef, okra, and rice casserole.
    S - Low cal mousse or a fudgesicle.

    Exercise: one hour cardio (combo of stair machine, elliptical, and treadmill) and 15 min abs.
