Healthy Snacks For Weight Loss
So you want to lose weight but you don’t want to completely eradicate every little joy out of your life! Well the good news is that you can still snack, you just need to ensure that you snack on healthy or low calorie options.
In addition to snacking feeling like a “treat”, it’s also a good way to maintain your blood sugar levels during the day, ensuring that you’re not starving and feeling tempted to gorge on biscuits, crisps and cakes.
So, here are some ideas of low calorie options for you to try:
- 1 apple & a handful of grapes
- 1 low sugar cereal bar
- 2 small chocolate chip cookies
- 1 small pot of reduced fat chocolate mousse plus a handful of strawberries
- 2 rye crispbreads with 3 tbsp cottage cheese & salad
- Bowl of sugar free jelly with one scoop of low fat ice cream
- 1 Weetabix with skimmed milk
- 1 tbsp sunflower seeds
- 1 satsuma, 1 kiwi fruit, 1 apple
- 100 calorie pack of crisps
All of the above suggestions are around 100 calories, so easily allowed for a snack if you’re following a calorie controlled diet. And as you can see, if you’re really craving a taste of chocolate or your favourite savoury snack, you can still do this without blowing the diet!
