    If you really like your bread, have the bars as a hexb (alpen light the 70cal ones) and syn the bread. You can have between 5-15 syns a day so it's worth using it on something you enjoy eating. Try not to skip meals as you're more likely to want to snack and eat more :) Some snacks I like are...
