  • Exactly! Usually once a day or so or i'd feel to restricted. If i took it away, i'd cheat so much more. i consider it more about the choice of what i eat instead of a treat.

    Every day usually, whether it be some milk chocolate, some 85% dark, some ice cream, a piece of cake, a frappucino or a packet of crisps. In amongst my veggies, fruit, fish, cottage cheese, eggs and greek yoghurt.

    Depends on what's going on. Normally, if nothing weird is happening, every Saturday is my cheat day and my treat is a meal from McDonald's because honestly, I love their fries and sweet tea. It's also the day I always hang out with a large group of my friends, so it works well because we're too busy to eat for most of the day, we'll just get one meal at night, so it doesn't kill my calories usually.

    What do you mean by 'treat'? I eat foods I enjoy every day. Do you mean sweet foods? I have Kiwis or Stawberrys almost every morning for snack. Pineapple or Mango in the afternoon for snack. Sometimes I'll have grapes instead. In the evening I have an Apple with Peanut Butter on it. I love that snack! I also have about 1 ounce of 82% Scharfenberger Dark Chocolate right before bed every night. Do any of those count? I consider all these foods to be part of a fairly healthy diet, though. So are they really a 'treat'? I don't know.

    OH don't get me wrong I LOVE fresh fruit and eat lots of it, certainly good for a sweet craving and by no means do I ever feel bad for enjoying those. But sometimes I crave something a little less nutritious (maybe french fries every now and then or ice cream or milk chocolate) and I try not to eat those that often. To me that's a treat lol
