How to lose weight: 10 Low Syn snacks that will help you to fight the flab

Yoghurt

Fat free yoghurt will help you to feel full without all the calories.

These products are packed with probiotics, which regulate the digestive system.

Onken’s 0% fat yoghurt in vanilla is among the items that are Syn free.

Jelly babies

You don’t have to eliminate sweet treats from your diet if you’re following a Slimming World plan.

Many dieters reveal that Jelly Babies are one of their favourite snacks.

At just 1 Syn per sweet, you can eat a few without deviating from your healthy regime.

Ice poles

While icecream tends to be off the cards for dieters, you don’t have to rule out all summer treats.

Ice poles typically contain between 0.5 and 1 Syns.

Babybels

Cheese isn’t often associated with weight loss, but Babybel natural cheese is probably better for you than you think.

Ranging from 50 to 70 calories, the snack contains six grams of protein and 15% of your calcium needs.

One mini Babybel will cost you 2 Syns.

Jelly

If you’re looking to satisfy your sweet cravings, jelly is one of your best bets.

Hartley’s 10 calorie jellies are firm favourites with Slimming World members.

They contain just 0.5 Syns each and come in a variety of tasty flavours, from key lime pie to lemon cheesecake.

Boiled eggs

As long as you don’t fry eggs in oil, they are completely Syn-free.

Boiled eggs are one of the easiest ways to incorporate the protein-rich food into your diet.

You can pop them in a tupperware for lunch or eat them as a part of a healthy breakfast.

Rye cakes

Rye cakes are a great snack to grab on the go.

Ryvita’s options are high in fibre and low in fat, making them a good choice for Slimming World members.

Fruit

Nearly all fresh fruits are Free Foods.

Strawberries, apples and mangoes are among those you can eat without breaking your diet.

Be wary of blended, canned and dry fruit, as these always count as Syns.

Popcorn

As long as you swerve the cinema kind, the snack is pretty low calorie.

Those who pop their own kernels will only be using 4.5 Syns for a big bowl of the stuff.

Alternatively, you can grab a pack of SkinnyPop popcorn for 4 Syns.

Veggies and dip

If you’re looking to fight heart disease and high blood pressure, you should incorporate fresh vegetables into your diet.

The vitamin-packed foods also tend to be Syn free.

Try eating carrots, cucumber and celery with some low-calorie dip when you’re feeling snackish.
