Mangia with Less Pasta<\/strong>: When eating pasta, ALWAYS enjoy it with equal amounts of vegetables. A dinner of 2 cups of pasta will twirl 400 calories <\/strong> on your plate. To cut calories but not bulk, for every cup of pasta (200 calories) that you dish out, mix it with a cup of cooked vegetables (approximately 50 calories). You will end up with a heaping pasta dinner of only 250 calories <\/strong>, a savings of 150 calories. Your tummy will be satisfied and your waist will be happy.<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n

Chockfull of fiber, the popcorn is twice the portion size of the chips at a fraction of the calories<\/td>\n\n
