But let me put this out there.
Arctic. Zero.
Almost all of their flavors are 40 calories for half a cup, with the exception of brownie blast, cookie dough chunk, and cherry chocolate chunk being about 70-80. Chocolate peanut butter is 45.
That means 160 calories a pint (180 for chocolate pb, 280-320 for the other three I mentioned earlier).
I’m personally not vegan or gluten free or kosher but, I mean, still good to know
I can’t actually buy this because I live with my parents 😔 but I absolutely plan on it once I move out!
Servings: 8 - 234 kcal/5g protein per pinwheel
1 package (8 oz) Pillsbury Original Crescent Roll Sheet*
1 batch Vegan Pistachio Pesto (or 1 cup of any pesto)
8 sun-dried tomatoes (chopped/cut)
1. Sprinkle some flour on your working surface and roll out the Pillsbury Crescent Dough Sheet, being careful to not pull it apart. Pinch together any of the perforations, making sure it is one continuous sheet of dough.
2. Spread the pesto over the whole sheet and sprinkle sun-dried tomatoes.
3. Take the shorter side and roll up the sheet of dough being sure that the end is pinched together so nothing falls out.
4. Cut off the sad-looking ends that might not be exactly perfect, then cut the roll into 8 pieces. Note, you can still cook the ends but they won't look as cute as the other parts of the rolls.
5. Bake at 375 degrees for 12-16 minutes or until the edges get a golden brown.
6. Enjoy your festivities!
Hey guys c:
I thought I’d share my recipe for spaghetti in tomato sauce with you which I’m absolutely in love with. I can finally enjoy some spaghetti without regretti (I’m sorry).
I hope you enjoy it as well!
It makes one serving and it’s only 98 calories in total!
Ingredients
200g shirataki noodles (you can get those in Asian supermarkets) ~19 kcal
5g garlic ~7 kcal
70g onion ~20 kcal
200g diced tomatoes ~50 kcal
some seasoning (I added salt, pepper, chili, frozen basil & parsley) ~2 kcal
Instruction
Rinse your shirataki noodles and put them into a non-stick frying pan. Don’t add anything else yet, we want to dry the noodles a bit to get rid of their rubber-ish texture.
In the meantime you can dice the onions and mince the garlic.
When the noodles start to shrink, you can add the garlic and the onions. Stir it from time to time and be careful to not burn them!
I usually take half of the tomatoes and blend them with an immersion blender so the sauce will be a bit creamier. I then mix the diced tomatoes and the blended ones together and add the seasoning.
When the onions start to turn a bit yellow/brown-ish you can add the sauce.
Let it cook for about 4 minutes and you’re done!
I hope you guys enjoy the recipe as well! I also made a 100 calorie stir-fry recipe.
Servings: 4 - 2 wraps per serving - 255 kcal/30g protein

4 oz can tomato sauce
8 large lettuce leaves from Iceberg lettuce
optional 1/2 cup shredded reduced fat cheddar (omit for Whole 30)
1. Brown turkey in a large skillet breaking it into smaller pieces as it cooks.
2. When no longer pink add dry seasoning and mix well.
3. Add the onion, pepper, water and tomato sauce and cover. Simmer on low for about 20 minutes.

5. Divide the meat equally between the 8 leaves and place in the center of each leaf and top with your favorite taco fixings!

this is a one week program i made based on various brandy melville girls on youtube. i've been watching their vlogs and eating videos to curate this program based on what a brandy melville model lifestyle is like. before you start, set a calorie limit for yourself for this program - i recommend taking your TDEE and subtracting 500 from it, which will give you a nice, clean, sustainable weight loss of 2.2lbs a week by default (obviously higher with exercise). for the recommended meals, you can take some food out or add some in to suit your calorie limit.
♡━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━♡
day 1
brandy girls have a refined, straight posture. you'll never catch them slouching or with lazy, drooping shoulders. to improve your posture, stand straight against the wall. pretend the wall is pushing all your limbs towards it and you have no choice but to stand completely straight with your chin up. remain in this position for a few minutes, then, not breaking the posture, walk around so you get used to the feeling.
exercise
take a 1 hour walk with perfect posture. if you get tired, walk slower, but no matter what do NOT slouch. having a good posture can make you look inches taller than you are! not to mention how classy and polished you'll look. finish off with a steady 20 minute jog. if you're unable to jog for whatever reason, do another 1 hour walk.
recommended meals
today is a high carb day so you start off with a lot of energy. have some oatmeal for breakfast, with whatever add-ins fit within your caloric intake. for lunch have some avocado toast (sprouted/whole wheat bread if possible) with any seasonings you'd like. for dinner the choice is yours!
day 2
today is a self-care day so that you can focus on perfecting your skincare routine. do a DIY mask based on your skin type. don't forget sunscreen if you want youthful, age-defying skin. speaking of skin, you know what's bad for it? dairy! it's no wonder why lots of brandy girls avoid dairy or go vegan altogether. milk can increase your blood sugar level which stimulates hormones like testosterone that directly cause more oil. opt for plant based milks (which are also really low cal), or just simply avoid dairy. that means no yogurts, cheeses, or milk.
exercise
since today is a self-care day, do one hour of relaxing yoga and one hour of pilates. (link: https://tinyurl.com/1houryogaaa for yoga, repeat 3 times for pilates i recommend "blogilates" on youtube)
recommended meals
today is kind of a freebie, just don't go over your calorie limit, and no dairy. also, processed carbs can be just as bad as dairy for your skin, so no white bread, white rice, pasta, or sugary cereals, either.
day 3
brandy melville is famous for its chill, laidback californian vibe. you wouldn't be wearing stuffy sweatpants or jeans in the sweltering california heat, would you? brandy girls usually opt for a cute pair of shorts or a high-waisted skirt, so you need to get those legs in shape!
exercise
do a booty/leg workout on youtube. i recommend chloe ting's workouts, they seriously burn so many calories and will get you that brandy body. repeat three times, feel free to take a break in between. (link: https://tinyurl.com/chloeslegworkout)
recommended meals
since you're trying to tone your legs, make sure to consume lots of protein today. for breakfast have some scrambled eggs or tofu scramble. for lunch a simple protein shake of your choice will suffice, use plant based milk/protein powder if you have some available. if not, i highly recommend buying some. for dinner, make a tofu stir fry (link: https://tinyurl.com/tofustirfryxx). if you're using the recipe i attached, modify the ingredients as needed to fit your calories.
day 4
brandy girls are well-known for their advocacy for "juice cleanses." juice cleanses give your metabolism, digestive system, and energy levels a much needed detox. for the sake of this program one day will suffice, but i highly recommend you doing a full three day cleanse once you're done with this program.
exercise
since your legs might be sore, focus on toning those arms today. do 200 push-ups (knee pushups if you're unable to do a regular one) and 30 planks (45s each) scattered throughout the day.
recommended meals
juice cleanse. i personally love these recipes (https://tinyurl.com/...ecleanserecipes) but feel free to use any you'd like. you can also buy premade detox juices if you can afford them.
day 5
water clears your skin and gives you that hydrated, glowing complexion that's trademark of brandy girls. ever notice they don't seem to wear a lot of makeup? today, buy a cute water bottle that you can sip from throughout the day. feel free to add lemon or mint for extra flavor. experiment with other veggies/herbs. try to not drink any alcohol, it's pretty much a waste of calories.
exercise
do chloe ting's "do this everyday to lose weight" (link=https://tinyurl.com/chloetingshred) workout and have a brief water break every set. make sure to drink at least 3 liters of water today, and 2 liters everyday for the rest of the program. repeat at LEAST four times throughout the day. take breaks as needed, but get it done! you can do this!
recommended meals
since we're trying to up our water intake, continuously snack on veggies and fruits with a high water content. for veggies: zucchini (hint: zoodles), cauliflower (cauliflower rice), celery, cucumber, iceberg lettuce, tomato, broccoli, and spinach. for fruits: blueberries, plums, apricots, oranges, pineapples, melons, cantaloupes, and raspberries.
day 6
one of the staples of a brandy girl's wardrobe is crop tops. showing off your lean, toned stomach will be sure to garner the envy of everyone around you. before you start trying to get those chiseled abs, you have to lose fat around your entire body. luckily, working out makes this a simple feat.
exercise
again, do chloe ting's "do this everyday to lose weight" workout (linked earlier). supplement with her HIIT workout (link=https://tinyurl.com/10minhiit). repeat each four times. your body will thank you!
recommended meals
protein day! for breakfast have some proats (blend together vegan protein powder and oats) with any toppings that fit your calories. for lunch, make some lentil stew (recipe that i love: https://tinyurl.com/lentilstewmm). if you're still hungry, for dinner have some cauliflower fried rice (https://tinyurl.com/y65syo2n - vegans can substitute or take out the egg).
day 7
all that hard work led to your first photoshoot! photoshoot days are quite busy. for breakfast you only had time for a cup of green tea before you had to rush to the shoot. you only get one lunch break, and by the time you're home you're so exhausted you forget to eat before you fall asleep.
exercise
during a photoshoot, models are on their feet the entire day. aim for 15k+ steps today and spend as much time as you can standing rather than lounging in bed. don't forget that posture!
recommended meals
today is OMAD (one meal a day). your meal should be packed with nutrients and protein, so i recommend a salad/lots of veggies with a protein such as tofu, tempeh, or some salmon.
♡━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━♡
if you stick to your calorie limit along with this program, you should see results in your body within a week. these results will continue to add up as you repeat the program. good luck, you got this !

Low calorie snack ideas via weight watchers
Here's the scientific formula to work out how many calories you burned while exercising:
Duration of the exercise (minutes) ×MET of the activity×your weight (kg) ×3.5
Then you divide the answer of the above calculations by 200
The MET is the metabolic equivalent of the exercise you're doing, so Google the METs of the exercise you're doing and sub the number into the formula
Here's an example of an hour of intense boxing:
60×7.8×53.3×3.5= 87 305,4
87 305,4 ÷ 200= 436 calories burned
Here's a link to a website that lists the METs of different activities:
Don’t sleep on these😭 Add some herbs/spices and my cravings are gone! Only about 20 calories for the whole thing.
(2-3 portions)
You need:
-200g broccoli (56)
-200g champignons (44)
-1tsp vegetable broth(10)
-soy sauce, spices (optional)
How to:
-cut the veggies into smaller pieces
-put them in a pan and stir for a minute
- add in ur 50ml vegetable broth and put a lit on top.
-wait for the broccoli to be done then add in ur spices and soy sauce(if you want to)
Enjoy:)
Servings: 8 slices - 55kcal/1.2g protein per slice
1 tsp pumpkin pie spice
2 tsp cinnamon
½ tsp salt
2 tsp baking powder
1/3 cup flour, such as spelt, oat, white, sorghum, or almond
1/3 cup sugar of choice or xylitol
pinch uncut stevia OR 2 extra tbsp sugar
1 15-oz can pumpkin puree
¾ cup + 2 tbsp milk of choice
2 tbsp oil, or omit and increase milk to 1 cup
1 tbsp flaxmeal OR 2 tsp cornstarch (can be omitted if pie will be served in a bowl)
2 ½ tsp pure vanilla extract
1. Preheat oven to 400 F, and grease a 10 or 9-inch round pan.
2. In a large mixing bowl, combine first 7 ingredients, and stir very well. In a separate bowl, combine all liquid ingredients with the flax, and whisk.
3. Pour wet into dry, stir to combine, then pour into the pan and bake 35 minutes. (It’ll still be gooey after baking, but that’s ok.)
4. Allow to cool completely before transferring uncovered to the fridge to “set” for at least 6 hours before trying to slice.
