losing weight

I have lost 2stones but I need to lose more and it gets harder. I can easily do without breakfast as I am retired. I live alone and I eat a small lunch (healthy) and a perfectly normal main meal, but I tend to watch TV evenings and the desire to nibble at anything often defeats me. not because I am hungry but because I long for some sugar, crisps, nuts and stuff. Any ideas on how to combat this?

I would stick with earring breakfast and stop putting the other stuff in the cupboard. I could not live with it.

I think the only real way is just not to have the stuff in the house. I can be strong - or at least disciplined - for weeks, months even. But at some point I'll lose it and eat it if it's there. Triggering off weeks of being weak every evening.

You could put together a little "package" of goodies that you allow yourself in the evening and take your time eating them slowly, enjoying the taste, dragging it out. But easier said than done!

Not what you're looking for?
