While it may be a little cliché, I started off the new year with a couple of resolutions in mind. #1: Break up with caffeine. #2: Finally get down to my ever-elusive goal weight. So far, I can give myself a little pat on the back. I haven't had a stitch of caffeine since January 1st and I'm on my way to 20 pounds lost with the help of Weight Watchers Online.
Still, I recognize that the journey to weight loss isn't an easy one. I tend to get stuck in a "diet rut" where I eat the same thing over and over, and boredom isn't my friend when it comes to sticking to an eating plan. I love that Progresso offers tasty, healthful options in their soups. Available in 40 delicious flavors with 100 calories or less, Progresso® Soup can help curb your hunger, making it easier for you to stick to your weight management plan all year long. With hearty ingredients like pasta, beans, corn and rice, and flavor-packed vegetables like tomatoes, carrots, and peppers, Progresso Soup varieties with 100 calories or less offer a good source of fiber and a full serving of vegetables.
I had the opportunity to try the Light soups, which are Weight Watchers-endorsed and are clearly labeled with Points values. I especially liked the Beef Pot Roast and the Chicken Noodle varieties, and it was so easy to just grab a can to take with me to work for a healthy, satisfying lunch!
