Under 100 Calories Snacks

Never let snacking wipe out all of your hard-earned diet results in less than a few minutes flat.
By planning ahead, you can satisfy your stomach with snacks that are practically calorie-free. Here are 10 to get you started.
MySpace

MySpace
Hard-boiled egg
Snacking on one of these isn't hard to crack. Hard-boiled eggs are easy to prepare, and they provide an excellent supply of protein. Since protein fills you up, you don't have to worry about empty calories in this 78-calorie snack. well, personally, i dont really like boiled eggs.. somehow it smells yucky for me..

MySpace
Jell-O Brand Fat Free Pudding Snacks
Craving something sweet that won't totally derail your diet? At 100 calories a pop, these creamy treats taste like the real deal. Plus, they're fat free. love it!

MySpace
String cheese
One stick of this childhood favorite is about 80 calories. And besides being a good source of calcium, they're just plain fun to eat. Watch the fat content of the cheese stick you choose, however.

MySpace
Two tablespoons of hummus spread on 1/4 slice of pita pocket bread
Though it's low in calories and fat, this snack is big on Mideastern flavor, making snacking so much less monotonous. Prepare the whole pita pocket bread and cut into fourths, for several days' worth of snacks.

MySpace
Nabisco 100 Calorie Packs
These low-cal snacks are all about portion control. Whether you prefer Mini Wheat Thins, Honey Maid Cinnamon Thin Crisps, savory Ritz variety packs or Kraft Cheese Nips, Nabisco has a choice for whatever you crave. Depending on which you choose, the carbs vary from 15 to 20 grams and the fat from 2 to 3 grams.

MySpace
Kiddie-size frozen yogurt
Just because you're on a diet doesn't mean you have to give up ice cream. oh yes it's my big fave!! When the craving hits, try a three-ounce serving of frozen yogurt. It'll only cost you 78 calories and is 96 percent fat free. see?

MySpace
One cup of strawberries, topped with Cool Whip
Strawberries make for a great snack on their own, but toss a spoonful of Cool Whip on top, and you'll be in sweet-tooth heaven. And at 58 calories, the combo comes with virtually no guilt. oh geez. i'm drooling.

MySpace
Half an apple with caramel dip
Don't wait for Halloween to sink your teeth into a candied apple. *yum* This snack carries just 80 calories and makes for a good family treat, as well as a great snack for you.

MySpace
One cup of minestrone soup
Soup isn't usually considered to be part of the snack-food category, but, at 83 calories per cup, there is no reason it can't be. Make the whole can and make sure to limit yourself to single-cup servings.

MySpace
One bowl of instant oatmeal
Sticking to low-calorie snacks doesn't mean you always have to limit your portions. An entire packet of instant oatmeal is only 100 calories. Just make sure you use water, not milk, and don't add spoonfuls of sugar.

now get set and boost your energy without feeling guilty!

Sunday Lunch : Penang Bistro.

last sunday me and my guy (i dont know why i like to call him that way here) went to a malay restaurant, at Kebon Sirih for lunch.
it's called Penang Bistro. it's a common fusion asian culinary actually.
well, it was our first time there (he was curious and kinda persuaded me to go there. hahahaha)

for us, we could say... ummm.. good service, average price (for such great ambience and tastes), and an awesome ambience they have there.


here are some pics i took there, but unfortunately i forgot to bring my camera, so i just took it with some phone cam - 2 mp. not too bad after i edited them a bit.





















geez. the rice bun is so... 'tiny'.. poor baby, he can't be full wt that portion.



















this is the 'mayonnaise prawn'. geez. it's totally odally yummy!
cant stop eating.
the prawn was quite large in size, and tastes really creamy.. yumm..




















this is the great ambience i was talking about.
the lights, the views, see, those grey walls are stone made, and there's water falling smoothly on it, so you can imagine how was the breeze we enjoyed there..















this is the 'malay clay pot chicken curry' we ordered.
served on a small hot stove. no more words, perfectly yum yum!!

ok.. i bet you guys are getting hungry right now.... hohohoho.
so.. just try to go there, and hang with your closest fellows.
i recommend this, gorgeous place to eat!

My Tongue is Nude.

1. Chocolate Cake.

any kind, anytime. my mouth will always accept this yummy dessert! don't you think soo??
hee. hee.
my favorite one is the banana chocolate cake from Secret Recipe. well, you should try. i recommend this one, it's definitely tasty!!
a simple solid fudge, covered with thin chocolate melt, and banana layered inside. serve cold, and you'll see what i mean with 'super yummy' !
chocolate cake always makes me fly away... even if i'm sad, just have this one piece, i'll be much happier.. i often have this kind of therapy for a mood boost. hoho. maybe it's just a thought of mine, but it always brings me cheerful feelings afterwards. so why don't you try? doing your fave things, lay back, relax, and enjoy a piece of the yummiest chocolate cake!!
let's boost!! hee. hee.


2. Sushi

i bet everyone knows this beautifully made japanese food.
yes, it's sushi.
maybe some people just feeling disgusted or even sick with this raw fishes served on top of a japanese rice bun.
don't you know, those fish are real fresh, and it'll stay fresh for at least a couple of hours, because the fermented rice keeps the fishes stay freshen longer.
well, it cost you some more IDR to eat qualified sushis here in Indonesia.
thus, sometimes i just love to indulge my self, spoiling and celebrate my self with this sushi thing. oh, of course, wasabi time! hihihihi.
[my faves are avocado and salmon sushis. hee. heeh.]


3. Chocolate Muffin

hey hey! can't say any word.
choc muffin is always great! hoho. especially ones served with hot melted chocolate outside, and choc chips. geez! i'm going crazy.. huaaaaa.
and this pic is soooo mouth watering! oh geez....
see the strawberries, syrup and whipped cream....
aaaaaaaaa..... i'm just imagining how it tastes like!!!!! xixixixixiii......
nyummy. nyummy.

4. Ice Cream

who can ever resist this indulging scoops.........
oh geez. this is the second cheering food after the chocolate cake.
i love anykind of icecream. original, gelatos, even artificial [not healthy of course].
love these flavors :
- chocolate [absolutely!]
- chocolate chip [another absolute one]
- strawberry
- rum raisin [mostly great everywhere, even if you're trying new brands]
- green tea
- durian [sometimes..]

mostly those flavors are 'true' ones, other than those, some are artificial flavors, such rainbows, bubblegums, etc. [those with bright artificial colours]
if you ask me, where vanilla and mocha goes? doesn't everyone loves those flavors?
naah. i hate vanillas. smell too milky. yay.
mocha? not really into it..
wanna know a bit more about ice cream? click here

5. Chocolate Fondue

yum yum.. it's sooo easy to make this thing. it's super yummy and healthy!
trust me, chocolate makes you happy, and fruits makes you healthy. hee hee.
in some restos, they serve this fondue in a hot chocolate fountain. wooohhoo. it's more fun. u just have to 'shower' your foods [usually they use biscuits and marshmallows, but i'd prefer fruits, it tastes perfect! sweet chocs with sweet and sour fruits. nyum!]
you should try to make this at home. just melt the chocolate. and start your dipping...dip here..dip there.. spread all over! yay.. i love it! hihihi.


6. Yoghurt and Banana

wohoo! this is my fave combination for breakfast!
i always eat yoghurt and banana each morning.. always.
so, see, these healthy combination really boost me up.
adequate energy and calories till lunch time, and sometimes even more!
sometimes if i had extra fruits at home, i just include them into my yoghurt. most fave are strawberries. but still, banana is a must.
banana is my all time favourite fruit. since i was a baby, i always lurrrvvvvvv banana!! oh this powerful fruit is really superb!
click here for a bit more information about banana - how it works for your body -.
and click here for more infos about strawberry. sorry, it's all in Bahasa..

don't know why i loovveeee banana like crazy....
every banana flavor in each kind of food, mostly my fave as well! include ice cream, smoothies and others.. heehee..

Basically, foods that i love is more about desserts.
but not too sweet, solid fudge, and CHOCOLATE is kind of a must one. hee hee.
eat well, keep on stage, no exceeds baggage, uh? LoL.
