Mine are wine and toast. I really do need to cut back on the latter to lose any weight at my age (50s).

SorryGrin sugar I'm like a bloody ant. Always looking for it.

The post-work slump. I've got to break the habit of a lifetime - coming in from school and eating loads of bread/crackers/biscuits. Then having tea. If I can learn to get through that hour of the day, I'd have it cracked.

Yes Keira I think most "weaknesses" are just habits. Its not enjoying food or whatever that make people put on weight, its habits so ingrained we barely notice them. I think its the habits people return to "after" their diets that make them put their weight back on. Changing habits can be quite a challenge, almost like changing your personality! I think I'm doing it slowly but steadily.

Another "habit" I'd forgotten - large meal portions.

Chocolate, peanut butter on toast (with butter! ) and cheese.

Indian takeaways < main culprit

Wine

Crisps

Trifle

If none of these things existed, I'd be a size eight without any effort whatsoever.
