Hi Nuttynanny,

Glad you're coping ok without nibbling.

Sounds like it's going well.

That's so true! I will try to remember that.

I have never been able to understand how some people can survive on what seems like one meal a day - I feel I need to eat something every 4 hours - but have found things like cup-a-soup's, fresh fruit (in moderation), lots of herbal tea and coffee with skimmed milk, sugar-free jellies etc will stave off those hunger pangs and that awful wilting feeling when your sugar levels dip.

This is why we can succeed on 1400 calories a day rather than the old 1000 calorie a day diets of days gone by!

Well done NN for surviving those between-meal temptations.

Me too 😊 Need regular meals, also need a few carbs, or else I get so hungry all my will power goes out of the window 😊 But as nuttynanna says, it's a real mind changing moment to realise that life does not have to revolve around food. 😊

Glad to hear it is possible! Hope I can realise that soon. Well done for not nibbling.

Thanks for brightening my day, Nutty. Always enjoy your bulletins from the front. Managed walking yesterday, up from 300 steps to 11,000. Feet a bit tender. Lost it a bit foodwise. Still working that one out for the full horror. And had a pint of beer. Realise now that it should have been water. My third plan for this week is drink more water. Why didn't I think of that? Because they offered me a sample! Forgot to kcal that! Not even in the diary! Ah well, onwards and downwards. Venus
