A weight loss coach who shed 18 stone by sticking to a calorie deficit has shared his favourite crisps from B&M, all under 70 calories. The low-calorie snacks can be enjoyed as part of anyone’s daily calorie allowance, he says.
Neil Scurrah, 41, a former accountant from Blackpool, overhauled his diet and lifestyle after reaching his heaviest weight of 36st 10lb stone in 2013. The personal trainer had been overweight since the age of nine, but began to pile on the pounds during a “six-month bender” after losing his father.
Now Neil, whose videos have over 1.4 million likes on TikTok, helps others to maintain a calorie deficit whilst enjoying all the foods they crave. In his latest TikTok the weight loss coach, who goes by @the.real.loss.boss on social media, shared low-calorie crisps he enjoys guilt-free from B&M.

In the TikTok Neil can be seen browsing the aisles of B&M to pick up his favourite crunchy snacks. First up he picks up a bag of Golden Wonder’s Transform-A-Snack in Saucy BBQ flavour, totalling 61 calories per 12g bag.
Next up is Golden Wonder’s Ringos , in Spicy Thai or Sour Cream and Onion flavour. The crisps are just 62 calories per 13g bag making it very tempting to go for a second packet.
Third on Neil’s list is the childhood favourite Pom-Bear . A 13g bag of the Salt and Vinegar flavour is 65 calories.
Smiths’ Snaps in Spicy Tomato flavour are another great low-calorie option. They total 65 calories for a 13g bag, just enough to satisfy that craving for the crunch.
Another classic on the list is KP Snacks’ Space Raiders which remain almost unchanged since they were launched in 1987. A 11.8g packet of Space Raiders in Beef flavour is 58 calories.
Last but not least are the Cheetos Puffs in Cheese flavour. They come in at 64 calories for a 13g bag.
Neil suffered with food addiction before transforming his life by adopting a calorie controlled way of eating and regular exercise schedule. Now he is dedicated to helping others break through their addiction to enjoy food in moderation as “the world can be a very cruel place when you have a weight issue”.
In one video posted to @the.real.loss.boss Instagram, the personal trainer told his followers: “Remember, a successful weight loss journey is not about eating as fewer calories as possible to get the scales to come down as quickly as possible. It's about eating as many calories as possible while staying in a healthy, sustainable calorie deficit that’s gonna give you decent results on the scales.”
