100 Calorie Snack #14: Aero Mousse

I love the name mousse. It implies so many good things...Volumized hair, cute antlery animals that live in the cold woodlands and awesome deserts. Aero is made for mousses isn't it?

I'm amazed that they can market their chocolate so well - hey, 50% is pure air bubbles! - But in a mousse that's a selling point!



Either way, air is calorie free (that sounds like a PippaTip, sorry) and these are just 94 calories a pot. 

Nommmmmmmmmmmmmm.

Have you enjoyed one yet?

PS At tim eof writing you can get 4 for 50p in Asda. That's not an affiliate link. Just 100% niceness. :)

100 Calorie Snack #11 - 3 Quality Street- (And a Brew)

I've never been the biggest fan of Toffees from the Quality Street tin - more of a strawberry cream lady myself. 

Which is why I grabbed three- hey, I'm not going to scarf these down am I? 

Unless I'm desperate.*

Quality Street come in at about 30 calories each, which is pretty unfair, considering the time they spend in your mouth. Well, these do stick to your teeth. But size wise, that's a bad mouth to calorie ratio. But more satisfying then a 3lb pack of iceberg lettuce, no?

I also learnt that a simple sugar cube is 20 calories. That's quite a lot. And just a bit of advice- don't try cut one in half. With a spoon. (Or is it just me that would attempt that?)

I say have half the brews. What's your favourite Quality Street? 

PS - do you like my cup? : )



*Wait until 4pm. I'l kill for a toffee!

100 Calorie Snack #10: The ST of a Boost!

Yup! You can have the BO - pooey! But the st is better for your image. At 305 calories a bar, half is around 155, halved again is 76 ish. By cutting along the ST - with a big knife and an adult nearby you have a good estimate of 100 calories.

I think this is a bit small! What do you guys think? X

My 100calorie dinner- not salad!!

My 100 calorie pizza dinner- well about 140 is so yummy! Weight watchers wrap, spread of 1tsp of ragu, I cm cube crumbled very mature cheese, spinach and 2 slim slices of mild Napoli. Crisped in the grill on high for 3 mins! Yum!



100 Calorie Snack # 9 : Cadbury's Fudge

It's 115 calories...ooh deary me. This blog should be called food AROUND 100 calories, maybe, sort of. Anyway, Fudge bars are AWESOME so I suggest you snap off a 15 calorie bit and find a small squirrel to give it to.* (* Only joking, that' probably really bad for them. And for your mental health- 15 calories won't kill you.) Fudges have the double whammy of a compacted sugar hit and a nice chocolate coating. They look small, but are still erring on substantial because of their density - in the same way that a curly wurly sometimes feels like a trick...Yes it's long, but it's very thin... Okay this is bordering on obscene so I will wrap it up! Fudge- a great snack for 100 calories.

Q+A : Does the Kinect track calories correctly?


What do you guys think? I work out predominantly on Your Shape: Evolved 2012 and find that the most gut wrenching, sweat producing, ball breaking workouts leave you punching away those calories....err, just 23 of them. Can this be true? 

Can anyone recommend some great HRM’s for me?

I want to test that X-Box Kinect...Let's put it on the Jeremy Kyle Lie Detector. :)
