Calories are not created equal, the nutritional value of a chocolate bar, sugar-laden latte or bag of crisps, will not do anything good for your body but eating the same amount of calories in eggs, wholegrain toast, spinach or avocado and tomatoes, will offer you protein, fibre and carbohydrate – all things your body actually needs.
But, I appreciate that sometimes a treat or two is in order. Choosing wisely can save you (over) eating calories you don’t need. Here are some simple fixes to give you a treat but without adding in too many extra calories.
