Weight loss: stock up on healthy snacks

Although the convenience of calorie fuelled food and drink sources has a tendency to trigger the temptation to resort to the sweet stuff in an attempt to stabilise blood sugar levels, the only thing standing between you and the consumption of nutritious nibbles on the move, is the inability to source speedy snacks that won't subject your blood sugar to rapid spikes and slumps - or sacrifice your health, willpower and waistline.

If you're struggling to sustain healthier habits as a result of a hectic lifestyle, stocking up on a selection of Holland & Barrett's pick n mix for the health conscious before work (or during your lunch break!) will not only prevent your mid morning munchies resembling an abundance of added sugar - the type that leaves you feeling sluggish as your blood sugar levels are subjected to rapid fluctuations - but ensure that you avoid sacrificing your healthy habits for the sake of a speedy snack that may be quick and convenient, but also bursting with empty energy and added sugar.

Take home tip: preparation is the key to persistence.
If your healthy habits are suffering as a result of your work schedule, make a point to plan and prepare a selection of nutritious snacks and meals in advance in order to avoid reaching for the tasty treats that provide nothing but addictive added sugar, and excess empty energy - the excess energy that you will fail to burn via physical activity if you have a desk bound job or struggle to sustain a regular exercise regime!
