Personally I do but I feel it’s fine

We can’t have a bloody biscuit now? 😩

Purpleavocado · 04/10/2025 20:19

Yes, but not many, maybe 2 biscuits a day and a square of chocolate. I recently went from a size 12 to 10 and cutting back on treats definitely helped.

thisishowloween · 04/10/2025 20:20

Yep. And crisps. I'm a healthy weight, no deficiencies (had recent blood tests for PCOS), and do 20k steps a day on average.

RampantIvy · 04/10/2025 20:21

No, not usually.

I like them occasionally, but can quite happlity not eat them every day.

Darner · 04/10/2025 20:23

No. I don’t have a sweet tooth. I used to love chocolate but I have trained myself out of it. I couldn’t tell you the last time I ate a biscuit, chocolate or a pudding. They don’t tempt me at all.

EmeraldDreams73 · 04/10/2025 20:25

Yes. Plural. Which is why I'm much fatter than I'd ideally like.

Lindt 85% but only a square or two.

SinisterBumFacedCat · 04/10/2025 20:29

Yes, but not as much as I used to. I’ve got more into dark chocolate and usually have a couple of squares in the evening. However it’s movie night tonight so the Minstrels will be out.

Yes and that's why I'm fatter than I want to be.

Exactly this 😁

Octavia64 · 04/10/2025 20:29

Yes.

i have two biscuits with my tea each morning,

Thissickbeat · 04/10/2025 20:29

Yes. I don't drink or smoke and I'm active / exercise every day.
I'm having a sodding biscuit when I fancy one.

Fluppys · 04/10/2025 20:30

Absolutely! Yum

I would love to! But we rarely have them in the house

We bought four packets as a view to saving money.. let's put it this way it hasn't quite worked out like that.🐷😋

UpMyself · 04/10/2025 20:32

No. I last had a biscuit a few weeks ago. Had a chocolate yesterday. I think it was a bit old.

No. I was eating a bit of chocolate most night, but then I stopped and now I don’t crave it. Habits change your desires.

JLou08 · 04/10/2025 20:35

Yes, I have something like that at least once a day, sometimes more. I'm an healthy weight but I am also active, don't eat large meals and my meals are fairly healthy.

shuggles · 04/10/2025 20:35

@Favourites8 About 2/3 of adults are overweight or obese, so the vast majority of people are eating a lot of snacks and bad food everyday.

Smartiepants79 · 04/10/2025 20:36

Yes but I’m genetically blessed with a small frame and don’t put on weight easily.
I also don’t feel the need to keep eating beyond the point at which I’m full. So never eat more than 1 or 2 biscuits at one go.
There are plenty of things of change about my body by I am grateful for my natural metabolism!

GreyCarpet · 04/10/2025 20:37

No. I don't really like them.

I have 85% dark chcolate occasionally but it's years since I ate a biscuit!

Makemineacosmo · 04/10/2025 20:37

I have chocolate every day. I buy the treatsize bars. I run and am not overweight. I follow an 80/20 attitude when in it comes to food.

chocciebiscuits · 04/10/2025 20:37

Absolutely! I couldn't go a day without chocolate. I am up breastfeeding every night tho so using that as my excuse 😜 although I've always been like that tbh 🙈 chocolate/cakw/biscuits are my weakness x
