Also are crumpets acceptable.
Would appreciate answers to above questions.
If there's no sugar in them ( and a lot of chips have sugar ), and you don't care about 'big fat lies', then anything is OK. Of course, really you should be aiming to get to a point where you rarely snack, which just means you need to think about if you are hungry, or just in the habit. For me, the thing that I responded to most, was the idea of not always being drawn to the snack drawer, and within 3 days, I just didn't feel like it anymore, I felt full. That's not a challenge, we're all different and I think I got there in record time. But, certainly if weight loss is part of the goal, then limiting snacks has to be part of the solution.
I will confess that if I DO feel like a snack, a crumpet is one of my preferred choices :-)
