#sackthesnack

July 2019 saw us launch our social media campaign #sackthesnack inviting readers to take the challenge of swopping one daily snack for alternative behaviours like taking 200 steps, doing a little #kettlecise stretching or maybe even standing and moving to take a short phone call. The rationale for focussing on snacks was because snacks like biscuits, cakes, pastries, crisps and sugary drinks provide a fifth of our calories and cutting even one of these snacks in our daily life (and burning a few calories extra) might help us on the way to re-balancing our energy intake.

Be sure to have a look at our Twitter, Instagram and Facebook accounts to follow our #sackthesnack campaign or read some of our blogs below:
