Cheese

SlicesSwap for: Sprinkled cheese topping Say cheese! You can still enjoy this satisfying snack without overdoing it. One tablespoon of Parmesan cheese has only 22 calories, while an ounce has more than 120. Try sprinkling it as a topping rather than hiding whole slices in your meal.

 

Bagel

Swap for: English muffin You don't need to cut carbs altogether – just choose better bread! For breakfast, swap a bagel (which can contain as many as 400 calories) for a 150-calorie English muffin, and save yourself 250 calories.

 

Chocolate Ice Cream

Swap for: Chocolate fudge pop Did you know that some chocolate fudge pops are only 100 calories each? Compare that to nearly 300 calories in one cup of chocolate ice cream – you can have two chocolate fudge pops and still save yourself 100 calories. Now that's some tasty math!

 

Potato Chips

Swap for: Popped chips Dieting doesn't have to mean deprivation. If you're craving potato chips (which will average about 300 calories for 2 ounces), swap them for popped chips; they're 240 calories for the same 2-ounce size, saving you 60 or more calories.

 

Sausage Link

Swap for: Two slices of Turkey Everybody loves Turkey – and with good reason! You can enjoy two slices of Turkey for about 80 calories, which is almost 100 calories less than one sausage link that weighs in around a whopping 170 calories.
