BANANA SPLIT
Instead of your regular banana split sundae, try having sliced bananas topped with whipped cream and a drizzle of caramel and slivered almonds. The potassium in bananas helps maintain fluid balance to ward off dehydration.
TORTILLA CHIPS
Tortilla
chips usually have lesser fat and calories when compared to potato chips and
this includes Doritos as well, which have 140 calories and 8g of fat per
serving. So it's better to opt for a bag of tortilla Chips when you're in the
mood for a crunchy snack.
SALSA
So if
you're having a bag of tortilla chips for, you're gonna need a dip. Nothing is
healthier than salsa as it is full of vegetables and is much, much better than
cheesy and creamy dips available in the market. It also has a lot of
antioxidants due to the tomatoes.
POPSICLES
Yes,
fruit popsicles do have some amount of sugar in them but usually, they don't
have any fat. So it's better to have these than your regular ice cream. You can
choose from many different flavors and one popsicle stick has 40 calories in
it.
DARK CHOCOLATE
When that
chocolate craving hits, it is a good idea to pick up that bar of dark
chocolate. It has less sugar than milk chocolate and is high in iron and fiber.
If you treat yourself to a fancy, high-quality dark chocolate bar, you'll be more
inclined to savor it slowly instead of finishing it off in one sitting.
POPCORN
Popcorn
is a whole grain, and it's bulky so you'll feel like you're eating more than
you really are. Buy popcorn kernels in bulk and pop it yourself on the stove.
This way, you'll control how much butter or oil goes in it and you can also add
any seasoning of your choice to go with it.
SWEET POTATO FRIES
If you
have the option to choose sweet potato instead of regular white potato,
always go for it, especially in french fries. You'll likely get just as many
carbs and calories, but sweet potatoes have more fiber and a massive amount of
vitamin A.
CHEESE
Wait,
wait. Don't go around eating pizzas and burgers just because this list says
cheese is healthy. Eating a little bit of cheese every now and then will give
you a boost of calcium and protein. A little bit of a hard, aged cheese like
sharp cheddar or Parmesan will go a long way. Pair cheese with fruit or nuts
for extra vitamins.
FIG NEWTONS
If you
really are in the mood to eat something sweet, fig newtons are your best option
but they are very difficult to find in India. There are 1 110 calories in two
cookies, and because they're full of soft fruit, two cookies are quite filling.
They're also made with whole grain flour, which is always a plus.
BAKED APPLES
We all
love a slice of apple pie after we've had our meal but that can be very
unhealthy. Instead, try having baked apples. To make, bake a small apple and
top with 2 tbsp low fat plain yogurt sprinkled with cinnamon. It takes exactly
like apple pie but is comparatively healthier.
PISTACHIOS
Roasted
pistachios are some of the best snacks you'll ever have in your life and they
are very easy to find. In fact, they are so good that some people have been
sent to rehab just to stop their pistachio addiction.
GREEN TEA
Green tea
is known to be very filling and it curbs your hunger for a while. You can also
stop spending lots of money on energy drinks as green tea helps you focus and
gives you the energy to have a good workout as well.
PEA CHIPS
If you
can find these chips around you, get them ASAP. One bite of this crunchy, salty
snack a and you'll ditch the potato for good. The fact that these chips are
packed with protein, fiber, and B vitamins make them very healthy.
CONCLUSION
Of
course, you will eventually have to stop snacking if you want to lose all your
body fat, but it's a good start to have healthy snacks instead of fatty ones.
