MegaSack DRAW - This year's winner is user - rgwb
We will be in touch
Just writing my shopping list for tonight and need some inspiration...
Ta.
Capstan full strength, keeps those hunger pangs away.
I'm really really tempted yeti, but I can sense the ban hammer swinging my way 😀
Erm, home made flapjacks.
Can't buy them from a supermarket though.
Strong black coffee, by the litre.
Occasionally the small size nakd bars, banana bread or chocolate orange are faves.
Mitch - that's akin to chewing gum... no matter how much you eat it never fills [i]you[/i] up.

Snack: you should be eating large enough meals not to need snacks. If you feel hungry have a black coffee or glass of water. Nuts such as almonds/brazils/wasabi peas/soyabeans are ok as a snack, but not too many; or a couple of slices of chorizo/ham, hard boiled egg
😉

Mixed Nuts & fruit.
Failing that, coffee, bacon rolls, plain chocolate digestives, fig rolls, salt & vinigar crisps, belgian buns, almond slices, cheese, parma ham, Oats & Honey biscuits, Jaffa cakes, cocktail sausages, liquorice allsorts.
Dried apricots, small handful or raisins or youghurt coated raisins, braeburn apples with a small portion of cheese, grapes. Small piece of dark chocolate.
Cheesecake and coke.
dried fruit is good, but hidden sugar. Nuts? if you're a fan.
...fish fingers, toasted cheese sandwiches, muffins, Jordans meuesli, toast, Green & Blacks dark chocolate, last nights curry / pizza....
Unicorn testicles.
Nutty.
😆
Cheesecake and coke.
Currently I snack on...
Nuts
Dried Fruit
Fresh Fruit
Nature Valley Bars
Peporamis
Finger of Fudges
Oat Biscuits
Porridge
Yoghurt coated stuff could be a good addition.
Big bag of mixed nuts n raisens in my desk... sometime with some wasabi(sp) peas thrown in.... together with a peice of fruit.
But as I managed sub 3:30 yday for London... I'm about to tuck into toffee pudding and custard from the canteen... 🙂
Fair play to you Ro5ey - I was hoping you'd turn up on my other thread... how are the legs feeling?
Dried fruit (figs, sultanas, bananas etc). Not the best as aforementioned high in sugar but in small doses...
I've really got in to dried/roasted Chickpeas, you can get them whole or halved in bags from the World food area of the Supermarket - near the Bombay mix type products.
Wasabi peas are a fav too.
Tesco Granola Bars - they do a maple syrup one and an oat and honey one.
Quite tasty.
Yeah good... they get stiff sitting here at the desk, but are ok once moving.
Had a cracking day ... The London Marathon is the NUTZ...The atmosphere is truly wonderfull... I was sooo excited before the start I had to get myself a cup of tea and a sit down, my HR was through the roof with excitement!!
Was confident of the sub 3:30 and paced it early for sub 3:20. I did this so that when the "hurt" came (around 21mile) I could back off a little and therefore leave enough in the tank to be able to enjoy the Embankment while still posting the sub 3 1/2 time.... worked a treat, was strong at the finish enjoying the crowds/support and got 3:26:42.... perfect! (could have gone faster but wouldn't have had sooo much fun, think I got the balance right... I can beast myself at other events this year)
I've just had a choc ice.
bananas, biscuits or a sandwich - normally ham or peanut butter.
I mostly snack at midnight.
Nuts and fruit. Found most of the granola and flapjacks are too sweet for me, so unless its homemade its no good. Naked bars are lush(cashew, orange and cocoa current fav I got a couple of boxes free from a friend). I also like toasted seeds slathered in tamari.
Tbh I love biscuits(any biscuit) but have to moderate, ie with a cuppa when I get home and max of 2, as I fall into the '5/6+ without thinking' camp.
Currently I snack on...Porridge
You snack on porridge?
I have snacked on porridge in the past - brought in milk/oats and heated it up in the microwave 🙂 BTW Tricky, i've started taking vitamin d after not getting as much sun in Majorca as hoped. How long did you take it for before you noticed the difference? I'm not taking it in the same dose as (iirc) you did.
I snack on cherry toms, red/yellow/orange peppers, carrots, yoghurt, espresso, apples, bananas, brazil nuts/almonds, and the odd choc bar when i'm feeling weak or have sugar cravings.
Tbh I love biscuits(any biscuit) but have to moderate, ie with a cuppa when I get home and max of 2, as I fall into the '5/6+ without thinking' camp.
worry when you get through a whole packet and wonder about going to the shop to 're-stock'
Not much iDieting going on with you lot then ...
You snack on porridge?
It's becoming a regular bedtime snack... mixed with peanut butter or something. Marmalade and porridge has just struck me as a great idea.
What's this VitD lark??
Bourbon biscuits...
fresh air.
More meals.
you shouldn't have snacks between meals....which is why I just opt got another meal 🙂
Mainly fruit. I love chewy bananas, dried apple rings and dried mango. Sometimes I have yoghurt, also like Bounce protein balls and the gluten free Nakd bars - ginger and cocoa orange.
OK I also love chocolate, but I try not to have it as a regular snacking food!
today; 2 oranges, 2 apples 1 mcvities gold biscuit, 1 club and a scone with clotted cream and jam on.
Bounce Protein Balls look amazing!!
Can I get 'em in a supermarket?

Soreen banana or malt loaf.
Crisps
Butter with a bit of toast to hold it together.
Ginger nuts.
Tea.

Nothing, because wiggle/crc/merlin/on-one can't manage the simple task of shipping snacks of the exact size and colour I want direct to me when my tummy tells them to. It's infuriating, I'm thinking of writing a letter of complaint to the internet.

Binners - are you using pics from your phone as you eat your way through that little lot?
Bang to rights guv'nor 😀

BURP!
~Yup dried fruit does have sugar in it, but nuts have high levels of fat in them, it's like anything in this life you can eat what you want in moderation, so small handfuls. 3/4 apricots, a small hand of pistachios, cashews, a chunk of dark chocolate etc. Never depriving yourself or anything and thus never craving anything but not over doing it too.
As for iDave's diet (I'm not knocking him or those doing it) but why would you want to? eat healthy, normally in moderation and exercise and you can do what you want.
Good luck TSY .. wasabi peas forgot about those ... mmm
Does this fit in the iDiet?
Looks rather spanky to me..

forgot small handful of olives.mmmmmm
that kebab makes me want to vom just looking at it!
I've just been researching homemade energy bars.
Going to try and make some lentil and peanut butter ones tonight 😕
Ermmm, I did choose a particularly yuk piccie.. just for effect you understand.
Been many many years since I tasted one of those.
As for iDave's diet (I'm not knocking him or those doing it) but why would you want to?
Well in my case, because I'm one of the fat biffers it's specifically targeted at. That said, my wife's quite happy to be eating what I'm eating and finding it very tasty.
Does this fit in the iDiet?
As long as that's a gram flour flatbread it's wrapped in, then you're good to go 😆
eat healthy, normally in moderation and exercise and you can do what you want.
If that were true in all cases then iDave would have had no takers.. I reckon 80% of the people on it have been eating normally in moderation and exercising for years, and still have an extra 10kg.
Pretty much any/everything....
I have one of these every hour or so to keep my energy up:

f that were true in all cases then iDave would have had no takers.. I reckon 80% of the people on it have been eating normally in moderation and exercising for years, and still have an extra 10kg.
That's because 'normal' food is too much and 'normal' exercise is too little.
Hurrah! Yet another iDiet thread for chubbies to get their teeth into!
double post. tsk
Just now : toast n thick marmite.
Lush !
just eating cold roast beef and a few almonds.
keema peas and cauli rice for tea
spicy beans for lunch
scrambled eggs and toms for breakie
iam ifriendly................... 8)
I don't snack per se - I just eat a bit of what I've taken with me for the day whenever I feel peckish.
Working away from home as usual and picked up a Tesco shop to bring back to my caravan for the next few days consisting of:
2 packs of kiln baked salmon fillets (1 x sweet chilli & 1 x black pepper)
Seafood selection (prawns, mussels, squid)
Salt & pepper chicken
Barbequed chicken drumsticks (surprisingly low in calories, if not preservatives)
2 x pre-packed fruit sections - mango, kiwi, melon, grape etc
Cous cous & roasted veg
3 bean salad
Edamame bean salad
Roasted mushroom pasta
Go-Ahead yoghurt coated bars
Snack-a-Jack rice cakes
Alpen
8 x Crabbies Black
Jamesons Irish Whiskey
Douwe Egberts ground coffee
Eat similar to this most weeks, maintaining the loss in weight from 13.5st (and a previous 15.5st) and holding steady at just under 11.5st (6ft tall). Eat well in the morning, through to lunch and tail it off in the afternoon - don't eat much in the evening. Probably have between 1500 & 2000 Kcals per day (excluding booze) and have an active job.
Drink far too much alcohol, but apart from impending liver failure, it doesn't seem to affect my weight.
People clearly aren't eating in moderation and doing the necessary exercise otherwise they wouldn't be getting fat/over weight, clearly eating too many pies etc.
