Welcome Missus to The Best Thread on Mumsnetâ„¢! I think planning in an evening snack is a great idea: personally I've found, as you say, it's a better idea to plan your meals and snacks than to try and stick to something unrealistic and then fail. I also find if there's something virtuous in front of me, it does sort out the hunger from the cravings. On Fast Days I always have a big carrot and kale smoothie, and lately I've been trying to make it as late in the day as I can, because if there's a huge smoothie sitting on the counter then I can't legitimately have whatever it is I'm fantasising about - it usually works! What ideas do you have for good evening snacks? You could sub your cup of tea for one of those Options Hot Chocolate sachets, they're only about 15 calories but they do hit the spot if you're craving something sweet.
Happy that's fantastic on your NSV, and indeed your scale victory! I've had a very indulgent four days, and have very indulgent plans for Wednesday too, so I need to keep my focus today and tomorrow. Two non-golden weeks in a row could be the top of a slippery slope...
BOOP your fabulous jetsetter lifestyle continues! I bought a humungous amount of cheese for a party and then didn't get round to serving it, so we have this utterly divine triple cream brie in the fridge. I think my resistance has been positively saintlike.
