Hi Grannysqua and welcome to the human race and temptation...so don't beat yourself up over fancying a pork pie but ask your self are you really hungry and would you really enjoy it?

Enjoy your day now. 😊

Ha that is so true and actually pastry gives me heartburn but I so love it and no I can’t say I’m hungry I’ve ate a plum two peaches and the snack a jack just seen zest pic of stir fry I might try and Russell up something for lunch do you have a suggestion for flavourings please ? 😀

in reply to Grannysqua

I'd add herbs and spices especially some ginger and if you want it hot add cumin and coriander and a little chilli to you other ingredients. 😊

First off try drinking a glass of water, as sometimes our bodies mistake thirst as hunger.

Hollow days are no fun, but maybe you do need a little bit of extra food today? It's gotten pretty cold here overnight, so I know I want something more substantial than a salad for lunch!

Thank you that’s exactly what I just did and I do not drink a lot during the day I recently bought a metal water bottle but can really smell metal as I’m drinking I’ve also jus got a jug so I fill that up in fridge it reminds me to drink and yes I had salad last night am making a stir fry have a great day 😀

Hi Grannysqua

I hope you enjoyed your lunch in the end, and I hope you're enjoying the remainder of the day. You mentioned that it's very hot, so I hope you're managing to stay comfortable in the heat.

Zest :-)

That is a tricky one, once the snack is in the house, I am not good at resisting, however busy I am, its there in the back of my mind - so I make sure when I go shopping I am full up, so I can not be tempted by any goodies on display as I whizz round with the trolly, so only healthy stuff in the trolly and cupboards 😀

Yes you are absolutely right trouble is I say I buy it for grandkids but then I end up eating it going into diet competition Monday let’s hope that kick starts my mindset 😁

If you did not think about food, how would you plan or scan what your body is telling you what you need for repair. This man was obese and went on a deer hunting trip on top of Michigan. He ate a lot of stake there and came back to report to his doctor this pleasant experience. Doctor said " continue to do what you did". The patient was very skeptical about the meat consumption the doctor noticed. The man died a month later. Meat regenerates the inner torso parts. Plants clean and detox but meat builds back lifespan's damage.

Oh dear that poor man ☹️ trouble is these days there is a new good food and bad food reported most days some say all meat diet is best then vegan diet is best I agree veg and fruit is great and if all the meat was organic maybe that would be brilliant but I don’t eat meat everyday my budget doesn’t allow for it and I don’t miss out when I have meat free dinner it’s hard to get away from additives in any foods unless you are super committed and can afford organic I don’t really know the answer perhaps all thing in moderation what plan are you doing ? 😀
