I hope I am not the only one who does this but I have either a little food/drink treat each day (No, not a treat meal or a tube of pringles). I don't like drinking tea or coffee so I have a hot chocolate made with just water.

Do you guys have a little treat each day and if so what is it or am I just crazy?

    I do most days yes. Typically 100-200 calories worth (but my goal is 1900).

    Every meal can be a treat, if you make it that way! :smiley: I love using fruit and sweet vegetables in my cooking, although sometimes savory stuff can be delicious too! I incorporate many things into my meals that I love. Seriously, take a look at my food diary, you might get some ideas.

    Ive had 41g salt and pepper popchips and a Mars Bar ice cream and it's not quite 3pm

    That's under 300 calories

    I've room for more, should I want

    It's about calorie control :D

    If wine with dinner counts, then I have a treat everyday. If not, then I do not have treats every day, but I do have them when I want them.

    I have a very flexible diet so if I want something I'll work it in.

    True, though you are the first in this thread to use the word cheat.

    I had hot chocolate last night, and ice cream. And a piece of Dove chocolate. That's a normal evening for me, different things but whatever I'm in the mood for that fits in my day.

    As of late, I'm really addicted to Larabars. They're really, really simple. Like 2-6 whole-food ingredients simple. But oh so freakin' good. Something about having food smashed into a bar is so delish.
    My favorite is the Cashew Cookie which is only dates & chasews lol.
    Not sure if this is a treat really....

    Usually ice cream, a bit of chocolate, a beer, a bag of crisps - I usually work one in each day. I'm quite free and easy about what I eat though, so I regularly have burgers, pizza, pasta, big sandwiches, cooked breakfasts etc. that other people might not consider 'healthy eating'. As long as I'm eating a good variety, enough protein, and plenty of fruit and veg it doesn't bother me much where my fuel comes from (if it tastes good and is filling).

    Currently, I'm on a hot cocoa fix! It's very cold here and the warmth and the chocolate curbs any cravings for a high cal treat such as brownies, or cake, or cookies

    Coconut cream pie and carrot cake are my top two faves. :smile: They are treats, if you think of them that way.

    I recently found dark chocolate flavoured chai tea. A cup in the evening with a couple cookies has been my go to treat for last few days.
