Healthy Citrus Cheesecake

---

This is adapted from sparkpeople.com. it sounds yum and it's only 177 calories/4.2 grams fat per serving. i'm not crazy about fat-free cream cheese and sour cream, so i will probably try it using the light versions instead, which will up the calories and fat content, but not by much.
