Would you say you eat something like a biscuit or chocolate everyday

[Favourites8]

Personally I do but I feel it’s fine

Yes. One or two won't make you fat as long as you eat healthily otherwise ( no crisps, fries, sausage rolls and the likes) .

I rarely eat it, just don't get excited. Cheese, nuts, even crisps - are my thing.
Very occasionally I'll have sweet things - pancakes with lashings of syrup, rice pudding with lashing of syrup. I love those guylian chocolates and the odd biscuit. Honestly though, it's about once a month, if that.

Yes

I have a small chocolate bar ( chunky kitkat or similar ) and / or a small piece of cake and some crisps almost every day. I used to eat alot of toast with butter, peanut butter and jam ( at least three slices ) a day too. Have given up the toast as bread doesn't like me.
I am borderline underweight, and try and choose high calorie / small size foods. I am a lazy eater with a small appetite.
I am thinking portion size is likely the thing with food, not cake/ chocolate per se.

Yes, At the moment, it’s one of my few pleasures in life

I have a few squares of dark chocolate most days. I don’t see it as an issue - it has flavonoids lol.

I do, yes. But in moderation. I like a little something sweet after lunch and dinner. But I also exercise a lot, eat healthy main meals, and maintain a size 8-10, feeling healthy.

No because I’d be fat as butter

Yes.

Slim doesn’t equal healthy otherwise slim people
wouldn’t have heart attacks and get cancer. So just saying it for those who happily have crisps/cakes/biscuits but “it’s ok cos I’m slim”. Reference to the poster who is slim but was tested for PCOS which essentially is insulin resistance.

I have 2 squares of 90% chocolate after dinner. I’m keto so everything else is out. I don’t bother making keto treats like cakes or biscuits because I couldn’t moderate them. I need to abstain.

I’m slim now but I lost 8 stone on keto so need to be careful to keep the weight off.

No. I’m not particularly arsed about biscuits or chocolate. I probably have a small amount of one or the other maybe once a week. But I am also not in the MN “that salad of one lettuce leaf and a cube of cheese is massive” category. I eat a lot. I just prefer “real” food. And lots of it 🤣🤣🤣

I don't follow any diets because I am a healthy weight but eat healthy meals and don't snack during the day. I have a slice of cake and mug of tea for supper every day, that's the only sweet food I eat.

Yes I rely heavily on little treats. Doesn’t help with losing weight though

Not every day but if I fancy some chocolate or a biscuit, I’ll have some. Everything in moderation. I think denying yourself something makes you crave it more.

Yes! I have a biscuit (or 5) with a cup of tea as soo as we get the kids to sleep. We have 2 under 2 and a 6 year old so it's a signal it's quite down time in our house and I enjoy it. No issues with my weight and eat an otherwise healthy diet so it's a small everyday joy.

Yes. A break time digestive (or 3) dunked in tea is a necessity!

Yes I have sweet treats every day, always chocolate and sometimes biscuits with tea or some cake, I don’t drink alcohol so I let myself enjoy any food I want, I’m not overweight

I can barely remember a single day in my whole life (I'm 52) that I haven't eaten chocolate or cake or both. I've never been anywhere near overweight so I guess I burn it off & I eat a very balanced diet

Is that because of high cholesterol?

Yes always.
In a much smaller quantity thanks to mounjaro but I would never give up everything I like.
Life is too short for lettuce.

I have a chocolate bar/cookies and a packet of crisps every day without fail, and have done for my entire adult life. I'm 46 now. I stay slim as long as I exercise. If I stop exercising for any reason, then I start to put weight on.

No but I have T2 diabetes and insulin resistant PCOS. I have had to really restrict carbs in order to keep my sugars in the normal range. Even a small amount causes big rises which are ok occasionally but not regularly.

Yes. If I start putting on weight I may reconsider.

I eat chocolate every day and am slim with the right BMI. I wouldn’t be if I ate biscuits every day though. It’s a lot easier to limit myself to 1 small bar of chocolate than it is to open a packet of biscuits and only eat one or two.

Yes. I eat three meals a day, have a biscuit or chocolate at teatime and another after dinner. I’ve never had a problem with my weight, so I’m guessing it’s down to portion size.
