Hello all you beautiful people!
So lately I have been struggling with snacking! I know what I should snack on, I know that snacking is important but its so easy to get sick of a certain snack and to start craving something different!
I have come up with some snacking tips!!
1. don't buy snack you THINK you should eat, that you don't actually like, that's a waist of your hard earned cash! Because chances are you are not going to eat it! You need to enjoy your food!
2. switch your snacks up every once in a while so your not tempted to cheat on something that is NOT healthy!
3. Buy healthy snacks and snack in moderation! Don't over indulge. Do not buy the junk! keep it out of your house! Or you will eat it and you will feel awful about it.
4. Experiment with your snacks, try new things! Get on pinterest and find out what everyone is snacking on!
5. Make sure you buy things that are gong to fuel your body, not things that are empty calories and are going to leave you feeling awful and more hungry!
It is important to snack! You do not want to leave your body feeling empty! We need to find a balance in our meals! Practise portion control in your meals and snacks! Do not over indulge! I always eat 3 meals a day and have 2-3 snacks a day! its important to fuel our work, workouts, and daily activities! If we learn to eat healthy and meaningful calories we are going to feel amazing and have the energy we need to complete our days!
Some of my favourite snacks right now are;
roasted chickpeas, I LOVE chips and anything salty so this helps fill that void and is a healthy alternative to chips!
half of a grapefruit sprinkled with stevia: this helps stop your craving for sweets and is oh so good and good for you!
Oatmeal energy balls! These are my fav go to snack they are loaded with healthy ingredients and are super easy to make. They taste like a delicious no bake cookie!
Sugar snap peas! They are so Delicious and crunchy!
bananas and cottage cheese! This helps with the sweet and salty and cravings and is such a delicious combo!
Yogurt sprinkled with shredded coconut and handful of almonds! Dessert!!
What are you some of your favourite snacks?! Be sure to have healthy snacks on hand!! It is so important to eat enough calories in your day! Comment with your favourite snacks! I am always looking for yummy healthy snacks! Have a great weekend xo Ashylla
