Thread: Foods that are low in calories

Salad and fruits are the best choices

merrangine nests are only about 50 cals, for when you need a pick me up.

Chicken noodle clear soup about 100 for a can, I have that at lunch while at work.

I've just checked and found that weight watchers clear chicken noodle soup is 50 cals for a small tin!! fab news cos it's actually quite pleasant! I didn't know that about meringue nests tho... excellent!! and with some fruit it'll help my 5 a day

I find myself in need of a constant pick-me-up at the office where I work so I always take in loads of ultra low-cal cup a soups to have at my desk, its like a savoury cup of tea, I love them! And eating little and often keeps your metabolism going through the day, great for energy slumps

As you are all probably aware - SnackaJacks (is that spelt right?) are fairly low calories for the odd nibble.

Not strictly a food but those highlights dark chocolate & mocha hot chocolates are yummy! I like options white choc with 1tsp coffee too.

Bernard Matthews sliced turkey with low fat cream cheese in the centre is delish, low cal and exceedingly filling. Throw in a salad and you have a complete meal.

has snack-a-jacks popcorn been mentioned? 31cals per salt and vinegar bag and it's yummy!

Oooh, there's a salt and vinegar one?? I've only ever had the chocolate popcorn and I think it's 83 calories a bag. Must have a look for the salt and vinegar!

jelly!!!!

its sweet and you can get it without sugar!

I tend to have some if i am craving something sweet in the evening... raspberry is da bomb!

For my lunch I've started having cottage cheese mixed with a quorn chicken fillet. So low calorie yet so yummy and filling.

Mr men icecreams! I got a box from asda the other day. only 35cals each, they come in orange & vanilla, and raspberry &vanilla. Both yummy and very few calories! Excellent!

i think porridge and muesli are quite low and filling.
and solero ice cream is about 100kcal or the weight watchers yoghurts(i usually get them in sainsbury's) i think are around 60kcal, sometimes less, sometimes more.
the other day, i bought this big bunch of kiwi, strawberry, grapes, honeymelon, banana, apple and pear and i mixed it with some big tub low cal(around 60kcal/100g) natural yoghurt. and i was surprised at how much i could eat for around 600kcal, and it was REALLY filling.lol and yummy.

WOW bluehail -how did you lose all your weight??!! was it just by cal counting? xx

A fab one is Tesco's frozen steamed veg, they come in one big pack and inside is 4 littler clear packets, there's broccolli, sweetcorn and carrot (think there's other varieties too - but this one is perfect for me as its the veg i love and REALLY tasty) - you put the bags in the microwave for 4mins and serve! I have it will all my meals - jacket potatoes, ww ready meals and have this to bulk it up, or its a REALLY nice snack - if i've had all my cals and am going to stray i heat up 2 bags of this and have in a bowl, sometimes with pickled onions and beetroot - yummy! xx
