TV Snacks… 📺
It’s Sunday afternoon, you’re about to settle down in front of a movie with some snacks. So you grab a few biccies, packet of crisps, bag of chocolate, some sweeties and a drink. You know it’s not exactly low calorie but it doesn’t seem that bad… plus you won’t eat all the chocolate and sweets (except once that bag is open who are you kidding – they’re gone right?). This may sound like a lot but actually it’s pretty easy to stack up this sort of snacking without realising it and the calories really add up.
A few biscuits (3 Jammy dodgers at 78 cals each), a packet of hula hoops (120 cals), bag of haribo (548 cals), grab bag of giant buttons (636 cals) and a Pepsi (120 cals). That’s a whopping 1673 Cals! Of snacks!
There’s nothing wrong with enjoying some
snacks with a movie but maybe try a few swaps to reduce the cals without reducing the enjoying. You could have a bag of mini jammy dodgers (88 cals), a packet of hula pufts (72 cals), two mini haribo bags (55 cals each), two treat size bags of buttons (152 cals) and a Pepsi Max… for only 422 cals. Which not only is still quite a lot of cals for a snack but is a lot of food full stop – you’d probably find you were satisfied with all that anyway and not miss the larger bags!
Enjoy!
