Crisps – how many packets a week ?

one of my many weaknesses I’m afraid. I have conservatively estimated an average of 8 packets a week 🙁

Cannae be good for me….

0 for me even though I like a few flavours I won’t eat them.

Unless that’s 8 multipacks then that’s a mild weakness. That’s only a pack a day and 2 on a Saturday!

^^^ don’t eat them much at the weekend, but have managed 2 packets at my desk today….

I think I’ve had two or three packets this year…

Probably 6 individual packs a week, plus a dad sized share of any big bags of Doritos or whatever the family get through.

Yes, I’m overweight.

Delivery for iainc. The other 7 packets are on their way…..

^^^^ now you’re talking 🙂

2 smaller bags (multipack size) a week I guess.
Biscuits are much more of a nemesis.
Gradually succeeding in replacing with healthier snacks, but slow going.
With 248hrs on the bike so far this year and a BMI of 19 i’m generally not stressing too much about it.

1 in every pack lunch, sometimes one on a weekend. I would not consider 8 a week a huge amount. It depends on the rest of your diet and lifestyle

The only time I eat crisps is when I order a sandwich and they put a few on the side of the plate. I don’t dislike them but i prefer biscuits and scones. 8 packs a week is not excessive if the rest of your diet is ok.

Two small multipack bags of minicheddars a day mon-Thurs so 8 a week.
I could eat lots more but I try to resist.
Physical, active job & currently riding 100 miles a week so not too worried.

not trying, or needing, to lose weight, just conscious of wanting to clean up the diet a little so have been having a look at things. Not much of a sweet tooth, so not many biscuits !

About 15 packets, the aren’t bad if you have a plan to use the energy are they?

Four or five packs of mini cheddars a week which I’m hoping is a healthier alternative. Hopefully.

15-20 packets a week. Pah, eight, call that a weakness?

1 or 2. In the past has been 7-10 bad habit with office vending machine.

Probably 7-10 a week. That’s not the whole picture though; I have been known to binge eat a whole family size pack of red doritos in the course of about half an hour. With that sudden sugar/salt hit its a wonder I’m not dead diabetic…

I’m not proud.

5. One a day at work with Lunch, sometimes 4 if we have bacon n egg on a Friday.

10. Buy a few multipacks of kettle crisps.
20. Eat a few multipacks of kettle crisps.
30. Don’t buy multipacks of kettle crisps.
40. Go to 10.

(So about 40 a month)

Depends if I go to the pub or not. If so, 2 or 3, if not then 0. A bag of cheese and onion with a beer is a treat.

5 as part of my packed lunch doing a physical job so no guilt felt here.

Probably about 8 – 10 if they are in the house. I work from home….

1 pack per day=1 litre veg/sun fat per year…was once told.

One packet a week, maybe two. Depends if I end up having to buy lunch when working.

I’m more a nuts man 😆

Part of my attempt to lose the belly I’ve been building over the past few years has seen me cut out bread wherever possible and also replace crisps, which I bloody love, with ‘penance crisps’ as I call them, or vegetable crisps as the wife (and Waitrose) refer to them.
They are nowhere near as nice so I’ve successfully reduced a 10-20 pack per week habit to maybe 1 or 2.
Now when I do sneak a packet of sweet chilli, or decent s&v it’s like an alky finding a bottle of vodka.

Shit loads, I like crisps.

At least 4 packs of family size kettle crisps

Up to six packs a day at one point 😯 .
Now maybe one packet a week, I’m much slimmer now 😆

Rarely buy crisps as the general public only like bland flavours so that’s all a lot of shops sell, especially smaller ones.

5/6 of the small pack a week , sweaty bugger doing a manual job .

I love crisps, so only buy them at weekends. I’d be enormous if I ate as many as I liked.

Love them, but I won’t buy them anymore as I just eat the whole lot in one go.

4-10 a week I guess usually one per day

My only “indulgence” as I am pretending cakes dont count

Easily pushing 65 kg on the scales 😉

Those big packs, like Sensations or Kettle or like well, the Kettle copies that are all better than Kettle now, you know – they sell them for £1! I can’t buy them cos I’ll eat the whole bag in one go.

I feel less abnormal now 😀

Minimum of 5 bags a week. More likely 10+ though.

My metabolism is letting me get away with it far.

One day I’ll be fat, until that day I’ll trough on!

Multi-pack = one serving, divided up into stupid bags

Family size = one serving in a proper bag

One regular size bag of crisps = just a tease.

TBH, any junk food I buy is one serving; I will eat it until I feel sick. I can’t have it in the house as I have no self control.

Often I will go to the shop just to buy snacks for that evening. Storing them overnight is just not possible.

Oh and in a bad week I have been known to eat 4 or maybe 5 family sized bags of crisps.

My skinny genetics are not going to last forever…………….

Spoilsport alert!

It’s not just the fat content is it though….

Potatoes are bad for you now?
