"Hungry Girl"

I really like http://www.hungry-girl.com because it’s practical and is paired with the most successful diet, Weight Watchers. 

With the warm weather coming (yesss!  finally) I thought I’d post one of their frappuccino type drinks that’s yummy and healthy too:

Compared to the Starbucks’ Strawberries & Creme Frappuccino Blended Creme:

Serving Size: 12 oz.with whipped topping
Calories: 410
Fat: 11g
Sodium: 250mg
Carbs: 68g
Fiber: 0g

Even as a treat I think Starbucks’ version is way too much.  An obscene amount of fat and sugar (59g!) makes it not worth it in my mind.
