-small apples (80 cals)

-cherry tomatos (5 cals per tomato)

-cucumber (1 cup 16 cals)

-“cuppa soups” (usually 1 portion 30-50 cals) - even just eating the powder can be very satisfying

-watermelon (1 cup 46 cals) - natural laxative

-honeydew melon (1 cup 64 cals)

-grapefruit (1/2=41 cals) very filling if you warm it up in the microwave first

-carrots (25 cals per medium carrot) great to chomp on if you’re feeling peckish, cut into sticks to make them last longer

-celery (1 cup sticks=6 cals) great to make you feel full, but not everyone likes it

-crackers (25 cals per cracker) rich in fiber, make you feel full

-steamed vegetables (1 bowl=30-70 cals)

-vinegar (teaspoon=3-6 cals) great as a dressing on salad or tomatos

-mustard (teaspoon=3-5 cals) also great on vegetables, or to dip cucumber, celery or carrot sticks in, the spiciness speeds up your metabolism

-toast (1 slice=80 cals, depends on the bread) cut it up into little slices and nibble on them for ages
