2) Grilled seaweed: Definitely not a snack one immediately thinks of but it does a really good job of satisfying savory cravings. It has a very low calories count while tasting fabulous. Seaweed is high in antioxidants, calcium and vitamins. We like the Big Bang brand which can be easily found in most supermarkets.

4) Coffee: Amongst the many benefits of caffeine is that it is supports weight loss. That is, if you take black coffee, with no sugar and at least 3 servings per day. It’s been scientifically proven that caffeine can boost metabolic rate by 3 to 11%. You’ve really gotta love coffee to make this part of your weight loss programme!

5) Yogurt: Like coffee, this can be tricky. Many of the yoghurt brands and flavors out there do not support weight loss. It is only suitable when it is low in sugar and fat, for obvious reasons. Since yogurt comes from milk, it is high is calcium, magnesium, protein, vitamins B-2 and B-12. Sounds like good enough reason to have more of this power food! Try the For Me brand – we like it.
