What I’ve found in my health and fitness quest after having my third baby is that I really don’t have to give up anything to get the results I want. It’s been more about finding healthy substitutions for the things I love. Combined with an exercise routine, I’ve found that if I make small changes, I can still splurge on indulgences every now and then too. Bread is a big part of my diet, and my families, so I needed to find a great healthy brand to fit in with my new lifestyle. I have found the Sara Lee® Delightful Bread line up with our family choices.
The most important thing to me is that there is no high fructose corn syrup in the Sara Lee® Delightful Breads, so that I feel good feeding it to my whole family. Personally I love the 100% Whole Wheat, and the new oatmeal flavors, but my kids go crazy over the Butter Bread, and the Honey Wheat, that’s actually made with real honey. There are no artificial colors or flavors in any of the options so I keep them all stocked for our daily toast and egg in the morning, and for sandwiches at lunchtime.
I know that it is heart healthy for us to get such a great source of fiber in our diet. Meanwhile each slice only has only 45 calories, so I never had to sacrifice great taste while trying to lose weight. Eating right has also become an integral part of my new passion…running! 
Of course I changed my work out regime when I really began to get serious about losing the baby weight. So I took up running as a new challenge, and was so proud of myself last week when I ran my first 10K! I never thought I could run that far in my life, and now I am training to do a half marathon! Running has given me a really great sense of accomplishment since it is such a new thing to me, yet I can see with practice how I can progress to longer distances and better times.
Taking up running really kick-started my fitness plan, and inspires me to eat better to help me stay in shape as well. It is so easy to not take good care of yourself when you have babies and really young kids. I knew that I had to really challenge myself to make sure that I would stick to a routine, and there is nothing like signing up for a half-marathon to get you into gear! You never know what you are capable of until you try, and you have to start somewhere.

I am always looking to cut calories wherever I can, so I will definitley be trying this.
I’ve loved sara lee since I was a kid!
I will for sure be trying out this bread. I’ll be glad to cut a few extra calories I don’t need.
I love Sara Lee bread. Unfortunately, the calories don’t always love me, so I always buy the Delightful kind.
My kids love Sara Lee bread!
I have never tried Sara Lee bread. I will have to try it, I like the idea of 45 calories.
Sara Lee is awesome. Great bread, lovely taste and low calories are the best!
Congrats on running your first 10k! That is a fabulous accomplishment. Keep up the great work.
I crave carbs when I run – especially when I’m training for half and full marathons. This is perfect to offset some of the calories!
We have always loved Sara Lee bread! It is so good and nice to know it is good for you too!
I don’t eat bread at all, but it looks like my kids might like it.
I am definitely going to try this bread. I do love Sara Lee products. I have never been disappointed.
I’m just finished my first 15K last weekend, and am training for a half marathon. I count calories, too, so Sara Lee’s Delightful bread is on my shopping list often!
I love Sara Lee breads! I love how fresh and full of flavor their bread tastes!
I am excited to try this bread out. I love to make sandwiches. I will feel a lot better eating them if the bread only has 45 calories.
Will be trying this. I can’t wait.
Why not give it a try? I’m all about making wiser food choices, and Sara Lee makes good bread.
I’m looking forward to making some changes for myself and my family in the new year. I hope that I can join in.
We love Sara Lee bread. Good luck with your half marathon!!
I love Sara Lee products. I am going to have to track down this bread as I am trying to reduce calories in my foods.
I love Sara Lee whole wheat bread! It’s one of our favorites!
I love this new bread. It tastes as great as the regular, but with way less calories.
I would have never know the calories were cut! This bread looks delicious!
I have not tried this bread yet, but am now thinking that I need to! Good luck on training for that half!
I can’t believe how little calories that bread has! IT’s amazing. I can’t wait to try it.
