Note: These cookies, which provide 2 grams of dietary fiber each,
aren't terribly sweet. We like them this way, but if you prefer them
sweeter, you can add 1 tbsp Weight Watchers dry substitute when
adding the other sugars and this will not change the nutritive
values. Nutritive Value per cookie: CAL 121; CHO 15 gm; PRO 2 gm; FAT

Diet tips

If you enjoy eating, but want to drop a dress size and develop your all round wellbeing, then, as any doctor will tell you, you need to start a specially designed well-balanced meal plan. In a perfect world, this needs to incorporate five helpings of fruit & veg each day and require the correct fusion of carbohydrates, fats, and proteins.

In deciding on a diet, you have to also make efforts to restrict your intake of fat, refined carbohydrates and salt.

When starting a weight loss program, people often concentrate on food store and big brand food items labelled as 'low fat'. This is far too often foolish, since a food item could be low in fat content, but still much too high in calories and carbohydrates.

One useful tip is to drink plenty of water. Every now and then in the course of a hectic afternoon, you believe you need food but really you may need a cool tumbler of water or juice. The feelings of hunger and thirst are much the same, albeit one of them results in weight increase and one is healthy.

Rather than dwelling on the many types of food you really should remove from your meal plan, direct your attention to the nutritionally sound foods which you are able to introduce to your daily routine. If you manage to bring in some nourishing fruit and vegetables into your meal plan, you will be delighted to find that stop feeling hungry and have a substantially decreased probability of being tempted by those damaging midday potato chips.
