After over indulging during Christmas most of us want to get back to a more varied, balanced diet as part of a healthy lifestyle. Although this may be tough, you don’t have to give up everything you love, just eat healthily.

Why not treat yourself to a lower calorie snack, such as a 2 finger KitKat biscuit, with only 107 calories it can be enjoyed as part of a varied, balanced diet.

If you fancy a mid morning snack don’t reach straight for the pastries, make simple swaps to lower calorie options. For example, you can substitute a high calorie snack for a 2 finger KitKat biscuit.
