Good evening all, this is the worst part of the day. Everything has calmed down, stopped to a halt, the kids are in bed or you're just laying infront of the TV.
You've gone from one extreme to the other, your body still wants something to do.
When you give-in to restlessness. What do you snack on?
I.e what is safe to snack on? I.e rice cakes, homemade popcorn (lightly salted).
I am not a night time snacked but I am a 4pm-holy-hell-gimme-gimme snacked.
I’m really into salty anything so I have found celery with a bit of whipped cream cheese and Everything Bagel seasoning is really good. A lot of satisfying crunch, salt and creaminess -hits all of my reqs. At night, I really try hard to not snack. Often night snacking means one is tired. I just go to sleep1 -
Since your body does not turn sugar and carbs to fat any easier then someone else..
Perhaps instead of believing that myth, working on portion control and hand to mouth awareness would actually be a beneficial skill to learn during your weight loss.2 -
Yes, I enjoy barely buttered/lightly salted popcorn. It's a guilt free snack for me. I also stick to berries and other fruit, or a protein smoothie if I need something more substantial.0

I enjoy making hummus, with choped celery/carrots. But can get too much of a good thing.0 -

Hhmmmm that sounds an awful like 'The Truth' NOT a big fan 😂🤣😂 I've been living on denial and myths for too long now. I tend to stick to the myths because of my addictive personality.0 -

You can choose to eat however you want, but it's better to understand that it's simply a self control problem, rather then your body being unique to science.2 -
