[QUOTE="TooManyCrisps, post: 1137272, member: 244689"] I know what you mean about cravings, [USER=253545]@paula.nolan42[/USER]. My real weakness is crisps. Pork scratchings just aren't the same! And they are quite often in the house because the teenagers buy them even if I don't. Mind you, one they've opened a family sized bag there usually aren't any left after they've been at them! I know a couple of people have suggested not having any "naughty" foods in the house so you can't be tempted, and that's great if it works for them and their families, but personally I don't think its fair or practical to impose unnecessary dietary restrictions on my children and husband just because I now choose not to eat certain things. So we have bread, biscuits, cereal etc in the house because they eat it (where do teenage boys put it all???). I just have to be very strongminded, which I'm not always. I think the key thing is to think of it as a blip, not an all out failure. It's a small hiccup, not the end of the world. You have done really well, you will do really well tomorrow, you've just had one bad day. [/QUOTE]
