Ok yesterday I cleared my whole pantry of any sweet temptations( you know the really bad ones like chocolate/lollies/biscuits and cake - they are my downfall) as if they are there I will have no control/willpower over my cravings - processed sugar has a big hold.......... so today is a new day and the mid morning cravings…

Thanks so much everyone there's some good suggestions and some great alternative recipes sent through to help me. Here's hoping this time I can beat those cravings. :)

Many thanks this is all great feedback and I have messaged you on a couple of areas. Thanks again

Thanks might try going to five meals a day and upping the water intake, that may help the problem. For my three main meals Im really good, its the in between when Im tired. If you can send me the muffin recipe that would be awesome.

I'm pretty good with my three main meals and rarely have dessert however I tend to hit the sugar when I get tired or stressed. It tends to happen between meals or at night when I'm watching tv. (A really bad comfort food)

Ill try upping my water intake then, I don't have sugar in my coffee my my down fall is chocolate, lollies and of course cakes and tim tams. Eeek I have gone 5 days cold turkey and it doesn't work... just causes an massive binge as the cravings become full on, an gradual is also a problem.

Ha ha now that's a pretty good incentive! lol

Sure could do with some more friends to help keep me motivated and on track.

Thank you muchly :)

Many thanks, will try the frozen grapes. I have tried the glass of water and green tea options in past but have found this does not subside the cravings, if anything they worsen. I have even tried turning to fruit rather than sugary lollies, chocolate sugar drinks or biscuits, however this also has not helped. I am not…

Add me if you like Im a mum of two. :)
