Sistahs, we’ve been lied to.

For years we’ve been told to deny ourselves the delicious foods we crave. But feeling good is about more than appearance. It’s not about extreme juice fasts, kale cleanses or crazy dieting rules that often set us up for frustration and failure. It’s also not overindulging in decadent treats that offer little nutritive value when our energy runs out.

Balance is a snack that we can all crave freely, with the sweetness we want and nutrition our bodies need. I’m going to tell you a secret. I love to eat a bar with my coffee for breakfast before I go to the gym. I have them hidden in the back of the pantry.

Shh, don’t tell my kiddos.

You can purchase Balance at CVS, Amazon and select Walmart stores nationwide.

Balance is available in four delicious NEW flavors, including Chocolate Caramel Peanut Nougat, Chocolate Peppermint Patty, Dark Chocolate Pecan Turtle and Dulce De Leche, Caramel.

My favorite is the Dark Chocolate Pecan Turtle bar, but they all taste wonderful. They contain 5-6 grams of fiber which is a bonus for me. The treat is nutritionally balanced, and each new bar is 190 calories or less with 5-7 grams of protein.

I’m so glad I’ve found something sweet that I look forward to and I don’t have to feel guilty about. It makes me happy.

What flavor are you going to try first?
