Do you have a "treat" everyday and if so what is it?

[Angelasweetcheeks]

Currently trying to ignore the lure of a digestive biscuit to dip in my tea. Generally don't eat biscuits but we have them leftover from a cheesecake recipe. I think I do generally have some kind of "treat" everyday though. The things I perceive as a treat might be a small chocolate, a biscuit, some crisps, an alcoholic drink etc. I think I need to reframe my thinking so that something healthier becomes my treat.

What do you consider your "treats"?

An ice cold can of diet coke. My favourite daily treat.

An aero mousse after dinner. I’ve found them to be the nicest and 89 calories.

No, I don't really have treats and certainly not daily. I recently bought a pack of rice cakes with dark chocolate on and they were surprisingly yummy and felt like a treat. I had some lovely passionfruit last week which felt like a treat.

I don't. It took me two years to lose all the weight and not be obese any more.
I was fat for 30 years and hated every minute of it.
I don't see food as "treats" any more I see it as only fuel.
I've weaned myself off sugar and make all my own food from scratch.
If I want a treat I'll buy a scarf or some clothing or go for a walk in the woods or do some gardening which I love, maybe meet up with a friend for coffee.
It seems a bit too much but I completely wasted my life and opportunities being fat and I'm never going back there again.
I know myself well, one treat will lead to two then three like it always used to.

Yes, my daily treat is a thermos of coffee in the morning and another in the afternoon.

I eat chocolate daily but I am trying to cut down. I also like an Appletizer, a hot chocolate, a nice yogurt, bonne maman chocolate mousse.

Not sure it's a "treat" but I've started chewing gum and it helps me not reach for other stuff.

Yes, but my treats can be a cup of tea made with tea leaves rather than a tea bag. It’s all about elevating the every day experience for me xx

I have something every day, I log it in my calorie app tho (mostly)

Wow well done that’s amazing!

A cup of tea, sitting in the garden listening and watching the wild birds ❤️ or dark chocolate orange coated almonds..... Yummy!! Problem is I can't stop eating them,!

I do this. I lost 7 stone last year. I didn't cut anything out but use Nutracheck for calorie tracking still.

I have a small bar of dark chocolate most days which I see as a 'treat'.
If I ever have a coffee out (which is probably about 2-3 times a month) I see that as a treat too.

Sometimes there are threads on hear about words people hate, and I've just realised that the word 'treat' makes me shudder 😂 Not even sure why.

But I do eat something that's bad for me most days.

I think treat is something my ex mother in law used to say.

I eat cake most days. I am slim and exercise loads. I feel no shame about my daily cake.

Two fancy chocolates every evening. DH and I stock up on nice boxes of chocolates at every opportunity then ration them!

On a previous treat thread people were suggesting little things they buy themselves, off that I got some apricot scented essie nail oil. Stopping work for a couple of minutes to massage that into my nails breaks the day nicely.

I too would like some healthy treats. Like herbal tea in the garden listening to the birds. But I am time poor, so I choose chocolate instead!

Cappuccino (home made) and a square or dark chocolate.

I make all my food from scratch too for health reasons so a treat for me is:

A couple of Medjool dates

a homemade muffin/cake/biscuit depending on what I’ve baked that week

Also like walking in the nice weather(!) - makes me feel good!

in the ‘old days’ pre my digestive woes I’d say a cup
of coffee (nespresso or bought if out) and a cake (sometimes homemade but not as healthy as I make them now).

I have a small Kipling brownie they are tiny, but definitely feel like a treat to me. It’s the only sweet thing I let myself have a day. I’m not great with sugar but seem okay with these.

Not daily, but once a week I have a fresh cream cake of some kind. It used to be a reward for lugging a week’s worth of shopping for a family of four up an evil Pennine hill, nowadays it’s for no better reason than it makes me happy.

Jesus this has made me realise how unhealthy I am compared to others

Yes, stolen time on MNet :)

Oh we do this too.

We treat ourselves to nice boxes of chocs and then have 2 each of an evening. They really do feel like a little treat at the end of the working day.

I think everything is okay in moderation.

I eat mainly healthily but never deprive myself of something nice if I fancy it.

I'm dieting so am trying to avoid processed sugar and bread.
A favourite "treat" for me is some Pack'd frozen strawberries/raspberries/blueberries with a 2-3 heaped spoonfuls of Greek yoghurt. If you take the berries straight from the freezer and add the yoghurt, stir it together and then leave it a few minutes - it's ALMOST like ice cream! I'd have this as part of breakfast though. No snacks atm 😔

Every day! Usually a Bliss bar or a couple of pieces of dark chocolate also at least 1 options hot chocolate at night

No and part of the issue is calling it a treat. Just view it as food like any other, not a reward.
