9 HALLOWEEN TREATS UNDER 250 CALORIES!! :) If Halloween isn’t a time to indulge, we don’t know what is! But that doesn’t mean you should get spooked by the thought of a candy-filled, calorie-laden celebration... Whatever snack you do choose to indulge in, make sure you eat it slowly, savoring every delicious bite. That will help you to feel satisfied without going overboard. Speaking of overboard, keep in mind that candy marked “king size” is a red flag for a scary portion of calories, sugar and fat. Instead, opt for the smaller “fun size” treat to satisfy your sweet tooth while controlling the portion size. To help you—and your waistline—enjoy Halloween without derailing your diet, here are nine not-so-scary treats that are all under 250 calories. :) 1) Starbucks Tall Non-Fat, No Whip Pumpkin Spice Latte: Nothing says fall like pumpkin. This tasty Starbucks seasonal favorite will not only warm you up on a cool morning, but with only 200 calories, you can also enjoy it guilt-free. Plus, you’ll get in 11 grams of protein and 40 percent of your daily calcium before you even hit the office. Calories: 200 Fat: 0 grams Sugar: 37 grams 2) Donuts Pumpkin Munchkin: Don’t want to waste 380 calories on a pumpkin pie donut? Indulge in a pumpkin munchkin—or three—instead, and you’ll save half the calories. Calories: 60 each Fat: 2.5 grams Sugar: 4 grams 3) Russell Stover’s Cinnamon Candy Apples: You don’t have to bob for apples to bite into this seasonal treat. Candied apples can be tricky to eat, but they pack a nice nutritional punch with essential fiber and vitamin C. Calories: 150 calories (1/2 apple) Fat: 0 grams Sugar: 36 grams 4) Chocolate Popcorn: Popcorn is one of the lowest-calorie snacks out there. One whole cup (air-popped) has just 31 calories. This leaves you plenty of room to drizzle on some melted dark chocolate Hershey’s Kisses on top for a satisfying crunchy, sweet treat. Calories: 221 (one cup popcorn + 9 melted dark chocolate kisses) Fat: 12 grams Sugar: 21 grams 5) Rice Krispies Treats: Nothing says treat like these sweet, gooey squares. Not only are they low in calories and fat, but they are also a cinch to make—just three ingredients, hello! :) Calories: 140 for two squares Fat: 3 grams Sugar: 14 grams LOOK for more HALLOWEEN TREATS UNDER 250 CALORIES in tomorrows posts!! :)
