Quaker - Rice Cakes — 

So I'm noticing as I get older, keeping thin is getting harder and harder.  I used to snack on anything and everything that tasted good and could still walk the beach with confidence. Those days are definately gone!! The easiest way to transition from eating what you want to eating what you need is finding something that tastes great, and will fill you up enough to stop thinking about it. 

It sounds crazy, but Quaker Rice Cakes are great to start with when changing the way you eat.  I have been eating them for so long I now choose them over any other cookies or chips.  I'm a bit of a "cheesy" girl so my Quake of choice are the bite sized cheese flavored.  I feel like I'm eating cheetos and they are filling.  Try them with hummus.   For my sweet tooth, I go for the regular size peanut butter or choco chip cakes.  Try putting a little bit of peanut butter on one of those before leaving the house in the morning.  A great way to eat on the run. 

I love to eat and I push the calorie counter with my drinking, so I'll try my best to post as many new and easy ways that I find to take care of the body without suffering.

So give them a try and throw out the chips and cookies!

Of course with Chunky! There is no other way to eat air! The cheesy small ones are actually yummy though....

For some reason, rice cakes taste like I'm biting into air .. haha. I haven't tried the cheese kind though. =)

Hummm, I don't think I'll ever be able to eat just rice cakes, but they are with peanut butter, chunky of course...thanks for sharing.
