    If you like things like chocolate, biscults/cookies look for lighter options but check the cal and fat contents and compare to normal versions or to what you buy to see if there is a difference.

    Also by taking your time to look at the nutritional values on the packaging will allow you realise whats in them and maybe by doing that you will decide you don't need it or thats its not a healthy choice and go for something that is.

    Try and plan your shopping list before you go and stick to it, think about what meals and snacks you will be doing/want as well so you don't buy loads of stuff that end up not being used or wasted.

    Hope it goes ok.
