You might recall my last post, where I told you guys that my husband had decided that he had reached his limit, weight-wise that is, and was ready to make some changes in order to shed some extra pounds! In that post, I explained that by making just a few changes he had lost 4 pounds. Well I’m happy to report that here we are 3 weeks later and he’s lost an additional 11 pounds for a grand total of 15 pounds so far! Woohoo! Since Mr Fairy has always been fairly active, he focused on making smarter choices about what he eats instead. These are the changes that he made:
- For Dinner he’s focused on eating a smaller portion of meat and a much larger portion of vegetables… as well as keeping an eye on the total calories
- Instead of eating a high calorie sweet for Dessert, he satisfies his sweet tooth with a delicious Fiber One Dessert Bar or Cookie Bar
- He’s eating dinner earlier in the evening
- He replaced his breakfast (which was a high calorie Granola Bar) with a Fiber One Dessert Bar
- He’s continued with his daily walks and/or evening Bike Ride
Here’s a little bit of info about the bars that he’s been eating. The bars are all under 150 Calories a piece, some are even 90 Calories! And they come in delicious flavors like the New Cheesecake Bars in Salted Caramel Cheesecake and Strawberry Cheesecake! Cinnamon Coffee Cake is another great flavor! They’ve got Cookie Bars too… like their delicious New Soft Baked Peanut Butter Cookie, the New Crunchy Sugar Cookie and Chocolate Chewy Bars. Yum!! Each Bar has 20% daily value of Fiber as well, another important consideration at this stage in our lives! Mr Fairy loves all of the yummy flavors, he’s been crushing on the Salted Caramel Cheesecake Bars for awhile now, but Cinnamon Coffee Cake is a close second! With Fiber One you don’t have to fight your instincts, or your sweet tooth! Go on. Have one. 🙂 I’ll be sure to update you guys on his progress soon!

The strawberry cheesecake bars are fantastic. I think I would like to try the salted caramel – that would tic all the boxes – sweet, savory, creamy, crunchy; what else is there?

Easy … salted caramel cheese cake. I love cheese cake and salted caramel is just the icing on it. It just couldn’t get any better and to really make it an amazing thing … it’s low in caleries! What else can I say?!
