    1. Herbal teas, jasmine & roibos particularly.
    2. Breakfast oats
    3. Tuna (sure fire way to feel full up)
    4. Diet soda - I know some people are grossly opposed to this but it's a saving grace when I'm out socialising with friends.
    5. My vegetables...I wouldn't want to narrow them down but I love them all and eat vast amounts daily. Favourite to snack on would be cucumber and carrot.
    6. Cream cheese. Great for a cooking sauce, sandwich filling and a dip.
    7. Wholemeal pasta
    8. Oranges
    9. Coffee (my daily few cups)
    10. Hot chocolate - I may never need solid chocolate again so long as this stuff is in supply! : )
