68 straws =
240 calories
13 gr off fat
520 sodium
30 grs of carbs
o sugar

if you just have a 20 for a snack your cutting this by a 1/3... i so hope this is good for me if not that means i cheated today,

fresca is pop-anything carbonated such as perrier water would not be permitted either.  Stay away from anything fizzy!

There is zero protein in these so I'd not be eating them as a snack.  They would be right up there with eating crackers as a snack.

What Tracey said...

I used to buy these pre-op and they gave me severe runs! I had them twice and never again.

ETA: Dont think of it as "cheating" - think of it as maybe not a good choice and a lesson learned. When I hear cheating post-op I cringe. My attitude towards food has changed so much..nothing is really off limits...there are just good choices and not-so-good choices.

Yes, fresca is pop. It's a carbonated beverage.


I agree with the idea that this is not "cheating", but it is making a "not so good choice". We should try to get away from negative verbs, and try to make things as positive and punishment free as possible. Cheating brings to mind diets. We're not dieting, we're making lifestyle changes.
